Do I Want to Be Seen or Do I Want to Serve?

When the World Hates the Truth - John 15:18-27

Following JESUS has never been the popular path. In John 15:18-27, CHRIST prepares His disciples for the reality that the world will oppose those who belong to Him. Yet He also gives assurance that the HOLY SPIRIT will testify of CHRIST and empower believers to do the same. Join us as we examine what it means to stand faithfully in the truth, even when the truth is rejected.

More Than Forgiveness - Philemon

Paul's letter to Philemon may be only one chapter long, but it contains one of the clearest pictures of the Gospel in Scripture. In this verse-by-verse study, we see forgiveness, restoration, reconciliation, and the transforming work of Jesus Christ. Paul's appeal for Onesimus reflects Christ's own work on our behalf: He not only forgave us but received us into God's family.

Abide, Don't Strive - John 15:1-17

Jesus describes Himself as the True Vine and calls His followers to abide in Him. In this section of John's Gospel, we see that spiritual fruit is not produced by human effort but through remaining connected to Christ. This study explores what it means to abide, how God prunes His people for greater fruitfulness, and why true joy, love, and obedience flow from a life rooted in Jesus.

The Four Hearts - John 14

Confused. Wandering. Abandoned. Troubled. In John 14:12-31, JESUS ministers to each of these heart conditions and reminds His disciples that although He is leaving, they are not being abandoned. Through prayer, the HOLY SPIRIT, adoption into GOD's family, and the peace of CHRIST, believers can walk faithfully through uncertainty. The Christian life is not merely doing things for GOD. It is walking with GOD.

Peace for Troubled Hearts - John 14

As Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure, He addresses their fear and uncertainty with one simple command: "Let not your heart be troubled." In this study, we examine Christ's answer to anxiety, uncertainty, suffering, and fear. We discover that peace is not found in controlling circumstances but in trusting the One who remains faithful through every circumstance.
