Part 10: Unfailing Space
For every space needed to create a vibrant spiritual life, this is the one ingredient that holds it all together. Without it, we lack any hope of becoming Christlike. Psalm 36:5-9; 1 John 4:9-12
Prepare For Impact-Part 3: Love What Matters
Ever hear, “All good things come to an end,” or “nothing lasts forever?” When it comes to faith, the better message is, “The best is yet to come!” 1 John 2:15-17
Part 5: Beyond My Front Door
Relationships can be tricky, especially when tribalism is governing the rules of engagement. But for God, relationships are more than just finding others like us. John 13:34-35; Phillippians 2:3-5; 1 John 3:17-18; Galatians 6:2-3
The Grudge – Part 3: Me, Myself, and I
As difficult as forgiveness is for many, nothing is more challenging than forgiving ourselves. How do we shut down the voice of accusation that echoes in our own heads? 1 John 1-8; Romans 5:1-2
Part 6: Love
Similar to God’s goodness, love is another attribute that when misunderstood, creates a one-dimensional caricature that misrepresents the very heart of God. Exodus 34:5-7; John 3:16-17; 1 Corinthians 13:1-3; 1 John 4:8
Part 4: Worldly Warning
The Bible teaches that there are three forces intent on making life messy. The more aware we are of their tactics, the better we can protect ourselves from their attacks. The third warning is against what the Bible calls; the world. John 17:15-19; 1 John 2:15-17
