Who Do You Think You Are?

When Satan brings accusations against you, you'd better know the answer to one of the most important questions you will ever be asked: Who do you think you are?

The Seven Deadly Sins: Sloth

The sin of sloth has a solid grip on many people in our nation's culture. Sloth, however, is more than simply laziness. Sloth destroys joy because it refuses to care about anything that matters.

Just Another Day in the Desert

Moses was living an insignificant life on the backside of the desert. He thought he had ruined God's plans for his life and he believed he was a forgotten man. All that changed on a day that seemed like just another day in the desert.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath

Wrath (uncontrolled anger) is a dangerously explosive sin that destroys our lives and the lives of the people around us.

Friends Don't Let Friends Stand Alone

It's easy to avoid a friend when they are suffering because we don't know what to say to help them. However, a true godly friend won't let his or her friend stand alone when they're hurting.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Envy

Envy is like a poison for every relationship in our lives. Envy cannot rejoice with those who rejoice nor weep with those who weep. Instead, envy rejoices when others weep and weeps when others rejoice.

Friends Don't Let Friends Go

In the book of Genesis, Cain asked an important question of God. He asked, "Am I my brother's keeper?" The answer to that question is a resounding, "Yes!" As Christians, we have a relational responsibility to pursue a brother or sister in Christ that is beginning to wander down the pathway of sin. How should we approach a friend who is falling into sin?

The Seven Deadly Sins: Pride

The basic fundamental issue of all sin is pride. From pride, all the other deadly sins draw their strength and their empowerment.

Friends Don't Let Friends Give Up

Everyone faces moments when the weight of the world is too much to bear and you feel like giving up. When that moment comes, you need a true friend who won't abandon you or ignore you, but will spur you on toward the fulfillment of God's plan for your life.

Part 18: Laziness, Discipline, and Grace (2 Thessalonians 3:6-18)

A person who claims to follow Christ who doesn't work hard to earn their living (if they are able) harms the reputation and witness of the church. Paul tells us how to treat such a person and reminds us of the grace of God that helps us live the way Christ calls his people to live.
