E160: He Began To Build

Our study today takes us to Luke 14. Jesus says a lot about discipleship in this chapter. Sacrifice is required when it comes to being a Christian. Many times we can start strong, but fail to finish what we have begun. Jesus tells us why this happens and what we can do to avoid it. This was originally preached at the beginning of 2022. I was convicted listening to myself. The year is almost over, but there is still time to finish what we began to build. --- Send in a voice message: https://...

E157: God Is...Therefore I Will

Whenever we read from the Holy Scriptures, we should be seeking to learn something about God! It was Pharaoh in Exodus 5:2 who asked the question "Who is the LORD that I should obey His voice to let Israel go?" A lot of people ask, "Who is the LORD?" The Psalms help us to see who God is. In this Podcast Episode, we go through Psalm 95-Psalm 97. We will read each of these Psalms and then ask, "What can we learn about God?" Then we will see how we should respond to Him. God Is...Therefore I Will!...

There is a kind of medicine that we don't consider or use enough. I'm referring to what's written in Proverbs 17:22.
