When Jesus asked his disciples, “who do you say that I am,” he was gauging to see whether they had the right interpretation. Many people have become angry at the church or walked away completely because Jesus’ followers have the wrong interpretation. So the question is, do you have a true interpretation and from where did it come? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If you have a problem with the God of the Bible, it's probably because of something He did in the Old Testament. Talking snakes, natural disasters, ancient moral codes, divine violence, sanctioned genocide . . . what does it tell us about God and what does it have to do with us? This weekend, we will confront the God of the Old Testament and explore best practices for engaging the text of Scripture. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Assumptions, associations, and misconceptions all tear down our faith in God. The problem is that they are rooted in untruth and so we walk away from a god that doesn’t actually exist. The goal of today’s message is not to push you to a next level faith, it’s not to convince anyone to believe in God, the goal is to weed through the misconceptions and identify the counterfeit gods in our thought process. Those ideas that we learned as a kid but never gained a great understanding or, those ill-fitted explanations from good intentioned people, or the outright manipulations from someone speaking out of turn. But somewhere along the way we might have learned or assumed things that are just not true of God. Let’s peel back the layers of untruth as we seek to explore who God really is during this series.

In the beginning, God created humankind in His image. We have been creating God in our image ever since. But what you end up with is a god who looks a lot like us! That’s the God we’re dismantling in this series so we can discover the true God, the God of the Bible. And that God might surprise you. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The key to changing the way we think, the way we feel, and the way we behave is NOT changing the way we think, the way we feel, and the way we behave. The key? Changing the stories we tell ourselves!

Prayer is a two-sided coin. You can’t just pray like it depends on God, you also have to work like it depends on you. Pray. Then pray some more. But at some point, you need to stop praying about it and starting doing something about it. The best prayer is a well-lived life. The best prayer is doing what Jesus did. And God will help you do it beyond your ability. It’s called the anointing, and it’s the difference between the best you can do and the best God can do. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Temptation and evil are a constant presence in our world. Jesus himself was tempted. But we have a way out and a way to win. When Jesus says, “lead is not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,” he is saying we cannot deliver ourselves. Prayer is both our hedge and our help! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
