   <description><![CDATA[Everybody loves the story of the scrawny kid with the slingshot and a handful of rocks who takes down the giant. The story of David is one of the most interesting in Scripture.  As one author summarizes his uniqueness:  you begin with the fact that David was the least impressive of his brothers, his father's last choice and yet God's first choice. He had uncanny skill to write poetry and make beautiful music but also to become a fearsome warrior and a powerful king. We see in David qualities we wish we could have and weaknesses we hope we never discover. Most important, we are invited to learn from him about true strength. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[This is a psalm of thanksgiving, a psalm of celebration, not of mourning or desperation. David  is looking back over his life and remembering how God has protected him through severe struggles. David lost a son at a young age, he was pursued by King Saul and had to run for his life. He spent much of his life being pursued by enemies and having to go into hiding, even running for his life from one of his own son, Absalom. But yet, despite what he had been through he can now look back and safely say that his dependence is on the Lord’s protection and provision. ]]></description>

And so we wind up saying and thinking things like: "My job keeps me from doing what really counts for God." But what Scripture shows us from Genesis to Ephesians and beyond is that God wants our relationship with him to be completely interwoven into our everyday work.

Prayer may look unimpressive to the natural eye and it is easy to underestimate; but it has great resources waiting to be tapped, a huge power waiting to be released.

This is why this passage ends up having something to say to all of us. It is showing us the mind of God on the issue of wealth.  It is teaching us that God is going to judge the rich for what they have done with their riches. James is revealing principles that apply to all of us. ]]></description>

   <itunes:subtitle><![CDATA[How to Find Peace & Satisfaction]]></itunes:subtitle>
   <description><![CDATA[At the beginning of James 4 the questions is raised: What causes fights and quarrels among you?  He's saying there is something wrong. There isn't any peace. He goes on to add there isn't any satisfaction because in verse 2 he talks about not getting what you want. James is saying these are like the symptoms of a sickness. The symptoms are common. Many of us have them right now; quarrels with people, conflicts in our hearts, lots of frustration, little satisfaction. 

So what's the cause and what do we do? James says here's the surprising diagnosis of the problem. It isn't what most people think. The sickness from which we suffer is that we are double-minded about God. So, What's the cure? What should we do?  The key is the beginning of verse 7.  What should you do to find peace and satisfaction? Submit yourselves to God. What we need to do is submit ourselves to God. But what does that mean? It means to choose to place yourself and arrange your life under someone else's authority and care. James says you have to place or arrange your life under the canopy of God's care and authority. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[When you are stressed out, or struggling, your future is uncertain and relationships are disappointing it's not easy to just drift along on the happy raft.  Can we really look around us in the world, with eyes wide open and have peace and satisfaction?  Wouldn't it be better to just say, in heaven we will have peace and satisfaction but in this world you better count on conflict and disappointment?  Well it is true that this world is messed up in a lot of ways and the ultimate peace and complete fulfillment of our lives won't come until the end of time. But that doesn't mean we can't have real peace and real satisfaction right now in the real world even if it is messed up. That's what makes the offer and the invitation and the message of Jesus so engaging and exciting.

   <description><![CDATA[There is something wrong with our desires. It is part of our humanness that we all have desires. To have a desire simply means that we want something. Sometimes what we want is good. Sometimes we just want a little rest. We want security, love, fun, happiness, peace and quiet or to be left alone. Here's where we need to be careful. It's not wrong that we have desires. The Bible is not saying that the answer to our search for peace and satisfaction is to quit wanting things, but that our desires too often rule us when we should take them captive, bring them to the feet of Christ and make them all come under his authority so that they obey Him.

We have to recognize in these words a healing truth being offered to us.  Namely, that the Incarnation means that God is not a grasping God but a giving God. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[An honest person will admit that every religion or set of beliefs has its hypocrites. The interesting thing is the Bible itself, the heart of Christian teaching, has always acknowledged the problem of hypocrisy and inconsistency in the church.  But the answer, according to the Bible, is not less Christianity but deeper Christianity, authentic Christianity. When Martin Luther King Jr. confronted the hypocrisy of racism in the church he didn't call for less Christianity but a more authentic, truer, deeper Christianity. That's the same thing we see in the book of James.
This passage has something to say to all of us about what it means to have a faith that is real and alive.

 13When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. 15Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

 16Don't be deceived, my dear brothers. 17Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. 18He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[Sometimes in life you just don't know what to do. There is something inside all of us that knows that we aren't going to get a crystal ball that warns us of every possible misstep in life. And we can't "map quest” our lives so that we print out driving directions to happy town. But what can we do when we don't know what to do?  Psalm 1 is a great place to begin to get an answer to that question. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[We often need practical help with our tendency to over commit. We have to be reminded to slow down and enjoy the most important things in life. But it's important to know what the Bible says about rest also. Jesus  talks about a deeper rest in Matthew 11:28-29 when he said: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls.” This idea of rest for our souls is what is often missing from a lot of popular advice for dealing with the stresses of life. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[Some of us are facing situations right now that don't seem very funny. Maybe one day you will look back on them and chuckle but right now the dangers and fears seem very real and you need strength. The economy isn't the only issue people are struggling with; relationships, crazy emotions and temptations, through the changes of life there are a lot of things for which we need strength. Psalm 27 is about the strength we need and how to find it. Verse 1 says The LORD is the strength of my life. Then the last verse of the Psalm, verse 14, says Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.  Here's the confidence this psalm gives you. It tells you WHEN YOU FEEL ALONE, YOU CAN FIND THE STRENGTH YOU NEED IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD.

   <description><![CDATA[Ephesians 4 talks about how the body of Christ grows and builds itself up in love as each part does its work.  There's a great old song from 1967 by the Youngbloods; “Get Together”.  There are so many ideas in that song in this Scripture. The songs says, “Come on people, now, smile on your brother, everybody get together, try to love one another right now.”  Here in Ephesians 4:16 the Scripture says, as the body of Christ we are held together and the church grows and builds itself up in love as each part does its work.  Of course what we have here in Ephesians is not just a sweet song from the sixties but a clear word from God.  And it gives us a vision for our lives and for the Christian church that is very different than the way many people think of it. ]]></description>

Okay, but what is that all for? Try as you might, the only way you are going to find out what life is for is to find out from the one who made us. What Scripture tells us is that here in Jesus we have the one who made us telling us and showing us what he is about, what we are about and what life is about. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[Five times in the small book of Haggai the prophet calls us to think. He says, “Think carefully about your ways.” He wants us to think about  1.) our priorities, 2.) our perspectives and 3.) the outcomes of our actions. Our choices determine the outcomes in our lives. Scripture tells us this is a principle we especially have to think about in relationship to God because “Obedience to God is the most crucial factor in the outcomes of life”. 

Faith is the root of our relationship with God, but obedience is the fruit.  A.W. Tozer said: “The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are opposites sides of the same coin.”  ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[The Bible says the house of God today is a community of people in whom God dwells by His Spirit. It is built on the foundation of Christ with prayer and worship through acts of love, service, ministry, outreach and discipleship. Paul writes to the Ephesians and says the whole church grows and builds itself up in love as each part does its work.  As God builds his church through us there are also individual things that God wants to build into your life. It takes strength to build the things that God wants you to build. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[Sometimes we get a burst of passion, emotion or momentum about God and wanting to know him and build the things he wants us to build into our lives and communities but we run into difficulty and we fail to persevere. Like a slow leak in a tire, there is no explosive crisis, just a steady deflation until eventually we're running on flat tires spiritually. What happens next is predictable. The purposes of God are set aside. We begin to live for our own priorities and purposes. Our focus becomes our house, our life, our comfort, our success. God remains part of our life but not the heart of our life. We don't make a decision we just drift into a way of life that is mostly about us. Because we never really made a decision we don't think that much about it.  So someone like Haggai has to come along and tell us to think.

   <description><![CDATA[A lot of people first open their hearts up to spiritual life, and to Christ in particular, because something happens or something comes alive within them that creates a longing, a desire for spiritual life. People turn to Christ because they want forgiveness or fulfillment or help with some struggle. And Christ invites us to come with all of those issues and find life and friendship with God through Him. But what we discover when we come to him is that he wants us not only to receive forgiveness but to begin to follow him in our lives. He calls us to join him on a mission that is a big part of our purpose for life. ]]></description>

Where did we ever get the idea that it is okay for some people to call themselves Christians and yet not obey this call to follow Christ as a disciple?  One of the most common questions people wrestle with is this: “What should I do with my life?“ Jesus actually gives us the answer with just two words: follow me.

Once he arrived even John the Baptist had doubts about whether or not Jesus was the one sent by God.  He asked, "Are you the one or do we keep looking?".  Have you ever had questions, if not doubts, surface because Jesus isn't really what you expected or he did not solve some problem like you wanted him to? The truth is, Jesus doesn't always meet our expectations or fix our problems like we think he should.  But the ultimate question is actually, "Are you the one?", and the answer to that question is "Yes".]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[Psalm 46 has been called a battle hymn for believers in God. The issue of fear is in the forefront of Psalm 46.  Fear is certainly one of the most primal emotions and it's been in the news a lot lately.  There is no doubt some people are fearful about the economy but maybe your biggest fear is something else completely. We've had people this year discover a lump on their body and find out it's cancer and it's serious and they are in for a battle like nothing they have ever experienced before. There are a lot of things that can cause worry, anxiety or outright fear. But here's a Psalm that faces all the things that can go wrong and yet clearly says "We will not fear".]]></description>

What is the play about?  But, he suggests, most people step out onto the stage of life without asking these fundamental questions.  Psalm 8 tells us what our role on the stage of life is.  Emil Brunner says:  â€œThe most powerful of all spiritual forces is manâ€™s view of himself, the way in which he understands his nature and his destiny; indeed, it is the one force which determines all the others which influence human life.â€

   <description><![CDATA[The first thing we're told in Psalm 63 is that this is a psalm of David when he was in the desert of Judah.  David was the most famous King of the Jewish people. He was a very human individual who went through all kinds of experiences and failures and struggles and came through them all. This is a song of faith that was written during a difficult time in David's life. The desert is a symbol of our hard times. It's a wasteland that offers very little to nurture or sustain life. But  verse 7 says: Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.  That's a pretty good theme verse for the year to come. The Psalm is saying there is a way to sing, to thrive, even in a wasteland. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[The book of Psalms is famous for the way it speaks about two things: the pain of life and the praise of God. We often find it hard to put the two together. How can you be heartfelt about the praise of God if you are honest about the pain of life?  What the psalms teach us is that it is not only possible to be thankful, it's important. When life is going well thankfulness reminds us that behind all of the good gifts of life there is a God who is good. When life seems filled with troubles, being thankful doesn't dissolve your troubles but it can transform your spirit. It can be an act of faith that gives you the strength to get through trouble without bitterness or foolishness. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[Our whole culture and society today seems to be creating a growing number of people who are filled with an unhealthy love for, and focus on, themselves.  It creates a mindset and an attitude in which you live for yourself more than others.  This leaves many people ill-equipped for anything other than a self-centered life in which their "quivering self" gives up on challenges very quickly and blames others because this self has to feel good about itself all the time.  The irony is, this unbalanced love for one's self never actually leaves you feeling good about yourself.  It is not only bad for your relationships, it's also bad for you.  It creates unhealthy expectations and sets you up for continual disappointments.  That's why it is so important that we grasp what Paul is saying in Philippians 2:1-11; how the cross calls us to a different approach to our relationships with each other.]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[We've been talking about the cross in recent sermons. What we mean by the cross is not just the physical symbol of a cross, but the truth of what happened when Christ died on the cross and what it means for us. The passage we're looking at in Ephesians speaks about this when it says Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a sacrifice for our sins. The cross is about Christ giving himself to pay for our sin so that we could be redeemed by His grace. Grace is undeserved love. You don't earn it, you receive it by placing your faith in Jesus, trusting Him as your Savior. That's the message of the cross. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[The English word "hope" is often used for something that isn't much more than a wish.  â€œI hope we get there on timeâ€.  â€œI hope we win the gameâ€.  â€œI hope the microphone works for churchâ€. That's not what the Bible is talking about. In the Bible your hope is not just a wish. It is a conviction; a certainty. In the book of Hebrews hope is spoken of as an â€œanchorâ€ for the soul. Hope is confidence that God will keep his promises even though it hasn't happened yet. One way hope is misunderstood is if it gets watered down into a wish when it is really a certainty.]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[When the Scriptures talk about boasting the issue isn't two friends teasing each other about who caught the biggest fish or ran the fastest mile. Nor is it talking about the person who has worked hard and done a good job and really accomplished something, sharing the joy of that accomplishment with close friends. No, this issue of boasting is different than that. It all has to do with the heart and with God.  The boasting the Bible is concerned about is a boasting that reveals a heart that isn't humble in relationship to God and isn't relying on the grace of God. When boasting is a self-centered parading of every trophy possession and every real or imaginary accomplishment in the attempt to somehow demonstrate that you are somebody worth knowing and respecting it reveals the irony of a heart that is, at the same time, proud and pathetic. It reveals a heart puffed up with self-righteousness and undercut with self-doubt at the same time. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[The message of the Bible is not just aimed primarily at our feelings. Don't misunderstand, feelings are important. But the changes that so many people want to experience in their feelings can only come when there are deeper changes. What the Bible offers us is not just comfort for when we are discouraged, or joy when we are sad but something much more substantial. What the Bible offers us is the cross and itâ€™s a cross with hard edges. What that means is that the cross is not first of all about our feelings but about something that actually happened.  The cross is about something God did for his glory and for our redemption.  The cross is about the way in which God actually reveals His love for us and changes our relationship to Him.

   <description><![CDATA[Some people might say that to speak of the cross as therapy for the heart is to trivialize it. It is true that in Christian faith the cross isn't just therapy for wounded hearts, it is the source of our total and eternal redemption. However, because the cross is the source of our redemption and reconciliation, it is also a demonstration of the heart of God toward us and a revelation of who we are to God, and out of all of that comes a great source of healing power for our lives today if we understand and believe it. ]]></description>

Sometimes people who bring up the issue of suffering or injustice and evil in the world as an argument against God bring it up as if this were something that believers haven't really thought much about.  Habakkuk's situation was unique to his time and place in history, but the feeling of being confused about what God is doing and why, that's something very familiar to us all. We all know what it's like to have hard questions in our hearts. So, how does honest faith handle these hard questions?

   <description><![CDATA[In this passage in Acts, Paul launches into a prayer that is pointed.  We discover that pointed prayer aims at deepening your knowledge of God and elevating your appreciation for His work in your life.  What is the point of Paulâ€™s prayer for wisdom and revelation?  That a people who had been called out of one life and into a new life would possess a deeper knowledge of God.
His point here is not to be confused with a knowledge of the facts of God.  Knowledge of the facts of God is not equal to knowledge of God personally, intimately, deeply.  Paul is stressing the need for Christians to know God more deeply.

   <description><![CDATA[I know the word "authenticâ€ is in danger of being overused but I like it. Authentic means real or genuine but in today's culture it also implies sincere, not hypocritical. So authentic Christianity suggests a faith that is genuine in the sense that it is the kind of Christianity actually found in Scripture, but also the idea of people that are authentic in that they are sincere and honest. ]]></description>

The book of Acts tells us that the Christian church was birthed in a baptism. On the day of Pentecost the Holy Spirit was poured down on the church to empower the Christians for life and ministry. Now we might think, â€œIf the reality of the Holy Spirit has been given why go on baptizing with water? â€ What happens then throughout Acts is that whenever someone or some group of people believe in Jesus they are baptized with water because baptism is an outward, visible symbol of an invisible and spiritual reality.]]></description>

Jesus promised that if we come to him, admit that we need him and trust in him as our Savior he will redeem us by his grace. He also made it clear that what he gives us when we turn to Him is not only forgiveness but Himself to live in us. When you believe in Him He comes in to guide, empower and change you from within.

Instead, we find him teaching us about a faith that will face our situations. This is the kind of faith that pleases God. In the midst of the chaos of life and at the end of your resources, you are just where God wants you to be. This is the moment of chaotic faith. This is what Charles Spurgeon called â€œseeking faith.â€ Chaotic faith is marked by desperation. How does confident faith grow from the moment that we have called Chaotic faith? The faith that emerges from the chaos is ultimately a gift from God.

   <description><![CDATA[Starting at verse nine in Colossians 1 we come to a continuation of Paulâ€™s prayer for the Colossian church. It is here that Paul unpacks some remarkable expressions that give us an understanding of the nature of God. In the closing statement he prays â€œso that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him." 
To please Him... That statement would rattle a lot of peopleâ€™s understanding on the nature of God who is Often seen as consumed with wrath -- continually venting His displeasure with us. If you were to ask people, â€œDo you feel it is possible to truly please God?â€ most likely you would be met with some hesitation. But what do we see here? â€œTo please Himâ€ is one of the first expressions that Paul presents that reveals the nature of God. This is critical. If you do not believe that it is possible to live a life upon which God would look and take pleasure in and declare that He is pleased, how likely is it that you will pursue such a life?  Your life would be reduced to nothing more than an exercise in futility.]]></description>

In this passage of scripture Jesus is with his disciples on the way to the garden of Gethsemane to pray, and then be arrested and taken to the cross. It is in this setting that we might expect Jesus to stress what is most important. So what does he do? He talks about their relationship to him. He used the image of a vine and its branches in order to illustrate what's most essential for his disciples and for us. In John 15:5 He said: I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

   <description><![CDATA[What does Jesus mean here when he talks about fruit and fruitfulness in life? When the Bible talks about fruit it is talking about deep positive changes in your life. In some places it also suggests the idea of a deep and positive influence on others for Christ. The best way to see this is to look at another passage, Galatians 5:22-23, which says; But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. In the vine and the branches Jesus gives us an image to tell us how those kinds of changes can come about in our lives. ]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[One of the first things you discover when you study what the Bible says about homosexuality is that the Bible doesn't focus much on the idea of inward orientation or sexual preference. Its focus is primarily on what people actually do. It's about homosexual practice not preference. Violence, aggression, depression promiscuity, infidelity, all of these can be experienced as predispositions that pull us away from obedience to God, but none of them exempt us from responsibility for our actions. We should not minimize the struggles of people with persistent homosexual desires and attractions. But God sees everything, and understands all the factors that influence our behaviors. He offers help and hope. The church needs to reflect that.]]></description>

But the scriptures present a view of equality that is unique among other competing perspectives, and it is that women are both absolutely equal to and uniquely complementary with men.]]></description>

   <description><![CDATA[One of the things that is distinctive to the Christian movement, seen in the life of Jesus and in the writings of the New Testament, is that it brings both people who are religiously upright and people who have been scandalously sinful, violent, and promiscuous together in an attitude of love, unity, and acceptance. This however has always been a problem in the church. In one example we even find Paul in his letter to the Romans encouraging them to stop judging each other and accept those whose faith is weak without passing judgment on disputable matters because God has accepted him. ]]></description>

What this teaches us is that no matter how much you know or how well you've handled problems in the past you sometimes have to fight to keep your eyes on God in the present.]]></description>
