This chat is from Acts 1 and 2.

"having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people." (2 Tim 3:5) "the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus." (2 Tim 3:15)

If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, where “‘the worms that eat them do not die, and the fire is not quenched.’ (Mark 9:43-48)

2 Tim 2:14 Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to quarrel about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers.

Stir up the gift (2 Tim 1:6) A Worker Approved by God (2 Tim 2:15ff) Run Away, Run After (2 Tim 2:22-23)

This wide-ranging talk about the Bible and money, marriage and money, compulsive spending, saving, being poor, being rich, how money affects happiness, how money beliefs affect our sense of status, and lots of other stuff. We ended by taking a quiz together to see where we may be out of balance in our attitudes about money.

This talk is from 2 Tim 3 - Culture or Scripture?

The story of your life and the truth of who you are. Identity and meaning come from the narrative we believe. The question is, what script are we inhabiting? What if faith is a lot like method acting?

7 minutes about the Holy Spirit

We often think of the cross and our forgiveness as the end of the gospel story, but it's just the beginning. Resurrection power at work in and through us ... 

Existence is a giant love story. Love rescues and redeems. Jesus is the hero of the story. (Most of the other points I made are built on these three.)

Several youth share, pastor Tim shared a crafted prayer, Linda and the prayer team do their thing.

Yeast. Light. Salt. And we also think about some lessons from the 1904-5 Welsh revival.

A highly condensed conversation about a few historical revivals. Also, we pray for revival at the end.

Because they're so strategic to our spiritual growth.

Americans tend to think in terms of individualism, but the biblical God makes covenant with families. Let's talk about that.
