The Trinity is not a concept that is hard to understand, but the reality that describes our God who wants us to know Him. In this series of three lessons you’ll learn all about it in a way that for many, makes sense.
In this lesson, we talk about the substance, or the characteristics that the three persons of the Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit all share. These are characteristics such as holiness, truth, love, all-power, and then we’ll talk about what these mean to us. [Read more…]
This is Part One of our study of the Trinity. In it I’ll clear up some basic misconceptions about the Trinity and hope to help you see that the Trinity isn’t something esoteric and difficult to understand, but that it is a clear description of the God we love and serve. [Read more…]

Our study of the New Testament is about so much more than an overview of books, or a historical tour. It is the culmination of God’s rescue plan for the people He created.
The development God’s changed, redeemed people is what we’ve been learning about.
All else will fade (churches, buildings, denominations); God’s people will not. And it is those people (you) who will reach the world with God’s message of salvation.
How we become that, the spiritual formation of God’s people is what these “Pastoral Epistles” are about. [Read more…]
Romans is one of the most significant books in the Bible because it is a complete and systematic explanation of the Christian faith.
It is different than the other letters of the New Testament that were written to address specific problems in specific churches.
The focus in this book was to clarify the Christian faith and our salvation—to show from start to finish that it is by grace alone through faith alone, not adherence to Jewish laws, or human effort, that salvation is possible.
At the same time, it also clarifies God’s continuing expectations for those who have accepted His gift of salvation and challenges them to walk worthy. [Read more…]
A struggle for most of us who follow Jesus is that we know we should be better than we are. We know God called us to live lives that reflect our Savior, but far too often our lives reflect our world instead.
