Applying the Book of Job: How Can I Triumph Over Trouble?
Job
Speaker
Sunday Afternoon Service,  August 21, 2016

After extracting four important principles that lie at the heart of Job's learning experience, we'll launch out into the deep and uncertain waters of a Q and A.
Understanding the Book of Job: What Is God's Answer to Job?
Job
Speaker
Sunday Morning Service,  August 21, 2016

Job's persistent question throughout his suffering is a familiar one to us: Why? What's remarkable (and instructive) is that God does answer Job (38:1), but He never answers that question. And perhaps even more remarkable is the fact that even though God never answers Job's most burning question, Job is satisfied with God's answer.of Job.
Introducing the Book of Job: Who's in Charge of My Suffering?
Job
Speaker
Sunday School,  August 21, 2016

Who's in charge when things go wrong? Is God responsible just for the "good stuff" while Satan is in charge of the "bad stuff"? We'll tackle that question as part of a 40-minute "helicopter" overview of the entire book of Job.

Daniel 1, 6, 9
Speaker
Sunday Morning Service,  August 14, 2016

How Prayer Advanced the Church in Acts
Luke 18:1; Acts
Speaker
Sunday School,  August 14, 2016
 

God uses prayer to grow his church. Our Lord promised in Matthew 16:18 that he would build his church, and he is still building it. But how? The Book of Acts explains how—through God’s people in the power of the Holy Spirit. And what are God’s people called upon to do in the Spirit’s power to advance His church? Very simply—proclamation of the gospel and prayer. It is the second of these duties that we will note in Acts that God used to grow His Church.
Counterfeit Gospels
Galatians 1:6-11
Speaker
Sunday Morning Service,  August 7, 2016
 

In a day of unprecedented deception, we can expect it to increase. If Satan masquerades as an angel of light, why not his servants try to deceive us by all means. Even their "gospel" will be very deceptive. Are you going to examine very closely or be fooled by their crafty use of language? It is a false, perverted gospel.

Evangelical Feminism and the Interpretation of Scripture
1 Timothy 2:8–15
Speaker
Sunday Morning Service,  July 24, 2016

First Timothy 2:8–15 is one of the most controversial passages in the New Testament. We will walk this text using a normal interpretation, then look at how the evangelical feminists falsely interpret the same text. This message is intended to encourage our resolve to rightly divide the Word of Truth, despite the cultural pressure to abandon the clear teaching of the Bible.
Biblical Gender Roles and the Rise of Feminism
Genesis 2:18–24; 1 Corinthians 11:3; 8:6
Speaker
Sunday School,  July 24, 2016
