Ancient Jewish Wisdom Doesn’t really have much to do with I.Q. or being “smart” Has everything to do with “orientation towards God” Being “Wise” is less about “being” wise and more about “getting” wise Gaining in Wisdom is merging right-thinking with right-action It’s about making Godly Choices and learning to apply God’s truths to life’s […]

043 – Trust In The Lord With All Your Heart – Proverbs 3:5-8

God’s gift requires a response Paul wrote a letter to the group of believers who lived in Rome during the first century.  He spent the first half of that letter explaining that humanity was separated from God by their sin. He presented the details demonstrating that there was no way to bridge the gap between a sinful […]

042 Living Sacrifices And Renewed Minds – Romans 12:1-2

041 All Things Work Together For Good – Romans 8:28-30

The Problem of Suffering I find the Book of Job a very difficult book to read.  It’s one of the ancient pieces of Wisdom Literature in the Bible so it’s structure can be a bit difficult to navigate. What makes maters worse is that much of what is written in Job is actually WRONG and […]

040 Job Asks: Where Is God? – Job 23:8-10

Paul Draws Attention to the Unseen World When Paul wrote his letter to the Ephesians he covered a lot of ground. He explains God’s Eternal Plan at work in the world and the mystery of God’s extension of the Gospel to the non-Jew. He talks about Unity in Christ He challenges us to be Spirit-Led and […]

039 The Whole Armor of God – Ephesians 6:10-12

Friend of God Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.  You are my friends if you do what I command.  I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business.  Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from […]

038 Friends With Jesus – John 15:13-15

Can you imagine dining with Jesus and having him look at you and say:  “Go and learn what this means”? I think I would have scrambled for any scrap of paper I could find in order to write down whatever he said next.  (I’m a “write it down” person otherwise I tend to forget.)  Well […]

037 Go and Learn What This Means – Matthew 9:10-13

Have you ever heard of the Sermon on the Mount? When Matthew wrote his Gospel he spent a great deal of time recounting what he heard Jesus teach.  One of these long discourses is found in Matthew chapters 5 through 7. In fact, if you have a Red-Letter Edition of the Bible you’ll notice there […]

036 The Wise and Foolish Builders – Matthew 7:24-25

This week – You Have A Gift, Use It – 1 Peter 4:10-11 The Apostle Peter wrote a letter that we call 1st Peter.  It appears he wrote the letter while in Rome near the end of his life.  Somewhere in the late 50’s to early 60’s A.D. He wrote to hurting people.  People who […]

035 You Have A Gift, Use It – 1 Peter 4:10-11

 A Tree Is Known By Its Fruit A good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit.  A tree is identified by its fruit. Figs are never gathered from thornbushes, and grapes are not picked from bramble bushes. A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good […]

034 A Tree Is Known By Its Fruit – Luke 6:43-45

Draw Near To God – This is the Language of Friendship James, Jesus’ brother writes:  “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.” James 4:7-8 I think […]

033 Draw Near To God – James 4:7-8

I believe in Jesus.  Now what? Walk In Him As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. Colossians 2:6-7 Living for Jesus is a Daily Activity Walking implies action Movement implies […]

032 Walk In Him – Colossians 2:6-7

This week – Walk As Children Of Light – Ephesians 5:8-10 I don’t know about you, but in my life I wonder things like:  “What does it look like to follow Jesus?” “How can I make living for Jesus practical?” The Apostle Paul used a metaphor in his letter to the Ephesians that helps describe […]

031 Walk As Children Of Light – Ephesians 5:8-10

These verses come at the end of a section of the first Corinthian Letter where Paul explains that he is compelled by God to let people know the Good News about Jesus. He explains that: “I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.” (vs. 22b) The Apostle Paul […]

030 Run To Win – 1 Corinthians 9:24-27

Run With Endurance Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy […]
