What the World Needs Now - Humble Bridge-Builders, Part 2
In a global atmosphere of division and rancor, how do Christians live like Christians? How do we express love and concern, and overcome even our own anger and bitterness? In this program, Chip tells us, apart from the saving grace and sovereign influence of Jesus, nothing of lasting value can happen. From the book of Matthew and Jesus’ own teaching, Chip reveals the path to becoming a relational bridge-builder, regardless of our circumstances.Main Points
Topic #1 - The 6th Commandment
No murder by violent hands - Matthew 5:21
No murder by angry hearts or lethal lips - Matthew 5:22
Jesus' application:
The parable of priority: right relationships trump religious requirements every time.
The parable of urgency: delayed obedience will result in dire consequences.
Steps to humble bridge-building:
Do you have anger, bitterness, or resentment toward anyone, past or present?
Have you murdered anyone in your heart or with your lips?
Will you confess this sin right now and receive God’s full forgiveness?
Can you think of anyone who might feel angry or resentful towards you? Will you commit to make that relationship right “as far as it depends on you”?
Will you STOP and thank God for His love and kindness and blessings in your life right now?

What the World Needs Now - Humble Bridge-Builders, Part 1
Division, hate, and violence, don’t start with words. They begin in the heart. The disunity we see happening in our country and around the world - in homes, on the streets, and in the media - is ultimately caused by a driving force who’s aim is for that disunity to prevail. Scripture tells us our battle isn’t against flesh and blood. So, how do we become humble bridge-builders in the midst of the conflict? Chip addresses that in this program.Main Points

What the World Needs Now - Authentic Difference-Makers, Part 2
These days, there are plenty of causes and no shortage of agendas. Experts are everywhere and everyone’s got an opinion. In this program, Chip asks: What’s Jesus’ opinion about what’s happening and what’s His expert advice? Don’t miss His answers.Main Points
Overview of Matthew 5:
3-12: The characteristics of His true followers and their promised rewards
13-16: Salt and light: The movement’s strategy
17-20: Relationship of this new teaching to the Law of Moses
Jesus' Warnings - 4 "movement killers"
Key issue = motives - Who am I seeking to please?
Key issue = materialism - Whose agenda am I seeking to accomplish?
Key issue = misapplication - Where am I mis-applying Jesus' teaching?
Key issue = misperception
Have I entered through the narrow gate and does my life reflect one who is...
Poor in spirit?
Mourns?
Meek?
Hungering & thirsting for righteousness?
Merciful?
Pure in heart?
A peacemaker?
Persecuted because of righteousness?
