 Christmas Light: When Your Debt Is Deep (Week 2) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3425

When Mary hears that she will be the mother of the promised Messiah, she bursts into song. In her song, she sings specifically about the special place God has in His heart toward those who are poor and lowly. In a Christmas that is marked by consumerism, how can a simple poverty reflect and reveal God’s glory?

 Christmas Light: When Your Calendar Is Crazy (Week 1) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3468

Between holiday parties and kids programs and lots of shopping and visiting relatives, Christmas calendars can get jam packed. What’s more, just one unexpected thing can turn your calendar upside down and add to the stress of the season. The first Christmas turned Mary’s calendar upside down. Yet, out of a stressful situation came the world’s greatest gift. How can God use your stressful situations?

 Willpower: Worry (Week 4) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3316

Worry is one of the most besetting sins of our age. From whether we will get a raise to how our kids will turn out to what the weather will bring, worry infiltrates every part and portion of our lives. Jesus calls us, instead of trying to control tomorrow, to trust in God.

 Willpower: Laziness (Week 3) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3127

Most people would never call themselves “lazy.” But we are lazier than we think. We simply call our laziness “distraction.” How much time do we spend surfing websites or checking sports scores or just, generally, wasting time? The command against laziness is a call to focus our efforts on what actually truly matters.

 Willpower: Lust (Week 2) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3551

There is no mistaking it: we are a culture that is sexually confused. But before we point our fingers out the sexual confusion “out there” in the world, we must take an honest look at the sexual temptation “in here” – in our hearts. God’s boundaries for human sexuality are not meant to be restricting, but loving. They allow us to model God’s love in our relationships.

 Willpower: Anger (Week 1) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3451

With an election only two days away, tensions are high! As Christians, rather than getting angry at others, we are called to be forgiving of others. Instead of exacting vengeance, we wait for God’s justice.

 Healing - Paul Teske | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3588

While we know God will heal all believers on the Last Day, there's plenty of hurt and pain in this life that still exists. Pastor Paul Teske proclaims God's glory through Jesus's death and resurrection, and the healing He still does today.

 Receipts: What I Give (Week 2) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3536

The Christian churches in Macedonia were impoverished. But that did not stop them from being generous. So often, we create excuses not to be generous. But if we truly took stock of what we had, we might just find that we can give in ways we never imagined!

 Receipts: What I Spend (Week 1) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3133

Jesus tells a story where three men receive lavish amounts of money – years’ worth of wages – from their master. Two invest the money wisely and joyously. The third is fearful and foolish. We have been lavishly blessed by God! When we spend our money, are we wise and joyful, or fearful and foolish?

 Thoughts and Prayers: The Priority of Prayer (Week 5) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3299

It can be tempting to fall into a pattern of praying only in church and, perhaps, before a meal. But prayer is not an occasional activity. It is a whole way of life! When we “pray constantly,” we begin to see life differently – through God’s eyes.

 Thoughts and Prayers: The Problem of Prayer (Week 4) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3675

We have all probably had a moment where we prayed for something and God said, “No.” We sometimes call these prayers “unanswered prayers.” But these are really “transforming prayers.” Even when God says, “No,” He uses His “no” to strengthen us and draw us closer to Him.

 Thoughts and Prayers: The Path of Prayer (Week 3) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3502

There are ways not to pray. James discusses some of these ways in James 4:1-3. But in the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus gives us a model for all prayer. Praying for things like God’s glory, God’s provision, and God’s forgiveness are vital to prayer. Praying for these things also orients us around what matters most.

 Thoughts and Prayers: The Power of Prayer (Week 2) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3280

The power of prayer is on its receiving end. When God receives our prayer, He answers it according to His will. Turning to God for help and guidance, then, is powerful. When we spend time in prayer, we begin to see how God has worked through prayer, which grows our faith in Him.

 Thoughts and Prayer: The Privilege of Prayer (Week 1) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3310

The thought that the God of the universe would be interested in conversing with us can seem improbable to some. Doesn’t God have better things to do? Hebrews 4 reminds us that the proof of God’s care for us in Christ. If God has come for us in His Son, we can come to Him through His Son.

 Exodus: The Face (Week 12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3348

When Moses spoke with God, his face glowed. But that glow faded. We need a face that will not just temporarily shine on us, but eternally shine on us (Numbers 6:25).
