Distraction (“Weak Links” Week 7)

As we conclude our “Weak Links” series, we must be aware of distractions that can lead to spiritual dysfunction and even eternal death. We must not let life’s busyness or possessions distract us from putting God first (that is to say, where we spend our treasure and time is where our heart lies). To learn more about prioritizing our relationship with God and avoiding distractions, join us for this incredible sermon.

The Will of God

We often think being a Christian is about being good. But more than being good we are called to follow the will of God. Most of the time those go hand in hand but on rare occasions they don’t.

Doubt (“Weak Links” Week 6)

In a world where truth seems increasingly difficult to discern, it's more important than ever to understand how doubt can impact our beliefs and actions. That’s why today, we'll dive into the topic of Doubt and its impact on our lives, from questioning what is real or best to its destructive effects on our faith and spiritual well-being. Don't miss this opportunity to identify one of the weakest links in your mental, emotional, and spiritual journeys!

A Slow March to Nothingness

We are looking at over the next few weeks some powerful and impactful quotes from Dietrich Bonhoeffer. This episode deals with a march to nothingness in the West. God created something out of nothing and we are reversing that and taking something and making it nothing.

Pride (“Weak Links” Week 5)

Today’s topic is possibly the most important one in our lives. C.S. Lewis once wrote that “Unchastity, anger, greed, drunkenness, and all that, are mere fleabites in comparison.” What sin, what weakness is so powerful that lust, anger, greed, and drunkenness would be fleabites next to it? PRIDE. “Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind.” Yet we dismiss it so casually! In some areas, we CELEBRATE it. To be clear, there is a massive difference between taking pride in work well done vs. being proud, and today we’ll explain where to draw that line, as well as how and where pride infects us, so we can deal with it at its root.

Christian Cults: The Best of the Rest

Bethel church movement, Oneness Pentecostalism and the modern liberal church. We will delve into each of these, and look to see if in fact they count as Christian cults.

Weak Links - Patience

The Bible has all kinds of encouragements and warnings about the power of patience. Let's explore them together!

Are Jehovah Witnesses a Cult?

They come to our homes and knock on our doors to convert us, but it isn’t to Christianity. Listen to some of the beliefs that make Jehovah Witnesses a Christian Cult.

Anger (“Weak Links” Week 3)

Last week we talked about Bitterness and Resentment, and if you missed it, you should absolutely go back and catch it. Today, though, we’re moving from embers to flames: ANGER is the topic, and we all need to talk about it. From lashing out in fury to quietly simmering and acting out in spite, there are tons of issues that anger can cause, and we’re going to explore biblical examples of how to handle each of them now.
