Solomon would contend that wealth actually has very little to do with what you have, and rather how much you ENJOY what you have.

Solomon contents this week that the actual debate in life is not rich vs. poor but righteous vs. unrighteous.

What do we do when we feel far from God? This is an honest question, and Solomon answers that tonight.

Through the hurts and brokenness of life, we need one another.

What happens when we die? It is the most important question that we should investigate, and the Bible is clear.

Life is a life of seasons and we need to be diligent in seeking opportunities in each season to glorify God in all we do.

When we realize, and understand our mortality it leads to a greater joy in Jesus than we've ever known.

Solomon sets out on an experiment to test the pleasures of this world. His conclusion is shocking.

Solomon sets out to answer the all important question, what is the meaning of life? What is our purpose?

We have allowed worship to become something that it is not: a time to entertain ourselves. Worship isn't about entertainment, it's about glorifying Jesus.

Tonight, we talked about the Word and its power in our lives! The Word is true, living, and active and our very lives!

We are beginning a new series looking at values that were held very highly back in the day that have somehow lost their merit today, and we believe, they're still good values!!

Jess Wilbanks teaches this week and gives us a beautiful picture of who Jesus is, and how Jesus loves.

We must store God's Word in our hearts.

Prayer is foundational to every other test we have studied. How is your prayer life? We all need to continually seek a more active prayer life!

Are you patient? Are you patient in trials and suffering? James gives us great insight on how we can wait, while hurting, and wait well.

We love our stuff. Tonight, James gives us very clear ways in which our stuff, our riches deceive us, and often times become what we live for in stead of Jesus.

Are you a planner? Often times we plan, and plan, and we totally neglect the truth that nothing happens outside of the sovereignty and control of God!

Wisdom goes beyond simple intelligence. It has more to do with our conduct and character. James gives us examples of earthly wisdom, and its results as well as wisdom from above and it's results.

The test of words. Do words really matter or are they just words? The truth is they matter, and they matter a lot for several reasons and James points those reasons out to us!
