In Psalm 1, the psalmist provides us with a mantra for life. This song is simple and to the point, and the psalmist provides us with a way forward through the difficulties and anxieties of life. This way forward consists of simple, actionable steps that will bring us joy and happiness in this life.

In Luke 17:1-10, we see Jesus teaching several principles about what it means to live and function properly in the kingdom of God. He addresses issues dealing with sinfulness and accountability, as well as our responsibility to rebuke and forgive one another. Realizing the difficulty of these responsibilities, the apostles asked the Lord to increase…

In the last of this series of parables (Luke 16:19-31), Jesus tells the stories of two men—one who lived lavishly on earth and one who was a poor, sick beggar. The story chronicles the eternal destinies of each of these men. The rich man went to hell, a place of eternal agony and torment, while…

Growing up in the 90s, a lot of our high school preparation for future was based on trying to figure out “what makes us happy” or “what brings us fulfillment.” As we look to God’s will for our lives, we often place too much emphasis on us and not enough emphasis on doing the Will…

As we continue to think about becoming a faithful steward, this next portion of Scripture addresses several kingdom principles of stewardship. As Jesus continues to instruct His disciples, we discover that there are also Pharisees nearby who were listening to this teaching. Taking a moment to address them, Jesus reprimands them for the condition of…

In Luke 15, Jesus told parables about things that were lost—a lost sheep, a lost coin and two lost brothers. Here in Luke 16, Jesus continues His parabolic teachings focusing on the idea of stewardship. This first parable is arguably one of the most difficult parables in all of Scripture to understand. Darrell Bock argues…

The parable in this passage—Luke 15:11-32—is one of the most well-known teachings in all the Bible. While this parable is often referred to as the Parable of the Prodigal Son, it is really more about the reactions to the prodigal son than it is the son himself. The primary reaction to the prodigal’s return that…

Jesus reveals the heart of God in this series of three parables—the first two are short parables (15:1-10) and the last one is long (15:11-32). We will consider the two short parables in this message and the longer one in the next. In these parables, we learn that God is committed to finding those who…

In our text today in Luke 14, we find Jesus being followed by a large group of people—many of whom were probably there to see Him perform miracles and provide them with free food. In John 6:26, Jesus said to another crowd of people: “Truly, truly, I say to you, you are seeking me, not…

As Jesus is still on His way to Jerusalem, we see Him at a dinner party in the home of one of the leaders of the Pharisees. We don’t know exactly why He is here, or how He got an invitation, but the text tells us that the Pharisees were “watching him carefully” to catch…

As Jesus continued on His way toward Jerusalem to be crucified, He made His way into some small towns and villages. In one of those villages, someone asked Him a striking question. They asked, “Lord, will only a few people be saved?” Jesus utilized this question as a springboard to discuss every individual’s need for…

The Lord established His church during His ministry here on earth to bring glory to Him by making disciples from those who have not yet trusted in Him as Savior. The first step in the process of making disciples is evangelism. Evangelism is “telling the story of Jesus’s life, death, resurrection, and second coming with…

We are returning to our study in the Gospel of Luke today. Last time we looked at Luke, we were considering the teachings of Christ about how to live from Luke 12:35-48. In today’s message, we are going to move forward in this idea of how we are to live each day for the Lord.…

We will begin our study today when Jesus gathered His disciples together in the upper room of a home in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover Seder meal. This was the time when Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper, which we observed as a church body last Sunday evening. During this meal, Jesus shared some important teachings…

In John 12, we see Jesus as the King God intended Him to be—not like other kings who came and conquered by military might, but as the Ruler of a Kingdom that is not of this world. He was like no other king before or since—a king who preached love for our enemies, forgiveness for…

In the second half of Psalm 101, David lays out the kind of leader that he aspires to become—a leader with integrity. Just like last week, we see in these verses, five issues of integrity that are important when it comes to life in general and in leadership more specifically. David had a front row…

After a psalm of praise (Psalm 100), we now have a psalm of practice (Psalm 101). Knowing and understanding God’s call on his life to be the king of God’s chosen people, David resolves to become a king that models himself after the One who has called him. Psalm 101 describes a man of integrity…

Last week, we started a short series studying through Isaiah 55. In this chapter, God is reminding His exiled people of who He is and what He promised to do for them. In those first six verses of Isaiah 55, we saw God’s invitation to have life more abundantly! Then the prophet explained the requirement…

Paul David Tripp said: “The book of Isaiah is really about people who have forgotten. Because of their forgetting, they are sent into exile, and [then] are restored again. This passage… is written to people who are in exile who are now called to remember as they are going to be restore, called to remember…

One of the more well-known verses in the Bible is found in 2 Corinthians 5:7, which says, “for we walk by faith, not by sight.” In Numbers 13-14, we find a group of people who abandoned this biblical concept for a different philosophy. You see, they decided to walk by sight, and not by faith!…
