Mat. 9:16-17; Mat. 9:36-38 What lessons can we learn from an old garment and bottle? And how is the judgment to be like sheep at a harvest?

Pro. 22:29-23:11 The “thirty sayings of Solomon” are not an exhaustive list. They cover multiple different topics: from justice, to relationships, to personal conduct, to the pursuit of wisdom, itself. Previously, we considered the first 5 sayings: considering wisdom, justice, associations, spending, and respect. Today, we’ll look at the next 6 sayings, that cover 4 key topics. As a father, I want…
Exodus 6:1-8:15 There are lots of “children’s stories” we remember from our childhood. However, when it comes to the Bible, are there stories meant only for children? Or can we as adults learn from them, as well? This week, we take a brief interlude and look into the lessons we can learn from the first two of the 10 plagues of Egypt–and…
1 Timothy 3:2 These attributes are requirements for Godly leadership—and they must all be present for a man to be qualified to serve as an elder—a shepherd over God’s flock! But what about everyone else? I’d argue that most of the characteristics Paul describes as requirements for an elder also point to traits that God calls for all Christians to strive to…

For the next chapter, he provides a list of recommendations—wisdom that he hopes that, if they but follow, they’ll find a successful and Godly life. This Father’s Day, I’d like for us to start a series where we learn…
Matthew 7:21-29 How should we live our lives and show our faithfulness?
Galatians 1:6-9 When you read the Bible for the first time in faith, you can find yourself flummoxed at the divisions we see around us. How can this one book output scores of different groups and fellowships—all of which believe in its importance and often its inspiration—all with key differences and disagreements. Some are minor: questions of interest but of little impact…
Matthew 7:7-12 Does God really hear our prayers? Does He really want what’s best for us?
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 I could spend months looking solely at the letters to the Thessalonians! But today, I’d like us to look towards the end of the letter. For, as we find ourselves nearing the end of the letter, Paul turns to the biggest problem that was facing the hearts of the Christians in Thessalonica: a similar problem facing many of us…
