Psalm 145:4-7 NIVOne generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts. They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty—and I will meditate on your wonderful works. They tell of the power of your awesome works—and I will proclaim your great deeds.

Living for God is not just about having the right information…but did that INFORMATION produce TRANSFORMATION in us? Matthew 7:24-27 ESV“Everyone then who HEARS these words of mine and DOES them will be like a WISE man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds...

MATTHEW 7:24-27 NIV“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.

Matthew 7:24-27 (NKJV)24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it DID NOT fall, for it was founded on the rock.26 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: 27 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And GREAT was its fall.”

As believers, each of us is a part of the body of Christ—one body with many members. We were created on purpose with a purpose, and every breath that we’ve been gifted by God is an opportunity to allow His Kingdom to fully reign in our lives. The reality is that, sometimes, we get comfortable and stop taking steps forward in our faith. But we have a responsibility to do something with the new life we’ve been given. Tune in to find out how we can all make room for other image bearers to experience the beauty of the Church and the amazing King we serve!

Matthew 7:21-23 NIV“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 7:15-20 NIV“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.”

What does it mean to fear God, to work out our salvation with fear and trembling? It’s not what it sounds like. To fear the Lord is to live in absolute awe of His power, His presence, and His promises. Imagine how excited and awestruck you will be one day—to look upon His face and finally see Him! That is the posture from which we want to look to Him and worship Him today. Our God is not wrathful or scary. We don’t tremble because we are afraid. We tremble because of the wonder and astonishment we have for His greatness. Our God is an awesome God! 

God made it clear that He created us for heaven, not hell. Through the gift of salvation, we get to wait with hopeful expectation for our true home—heaven. But what can we really expect when we get there? What is it truly like? Tune in to our series, Look Both Ways, as we uncover the answers through God’s word.

Culture would have us believe that wide is the road that leads to heaven—that there are many paths to God—and narrow is the road that leads to hell. But as difficult as it might be to hear, Jesus teaches us that the opposite is true. He encourages us to follow His way, even though it isn’t popular or anywhere near easy when we try to do it in our own strength. The good news is that when we know the truth, we can choose the kind of life where we’re empowered by His Spirit and able to rest knowing that we never have to experience separation from Him. Because of His goodness, we can live brighter and fuller lives on this side of heaven and bask in the beauty of relationship with Him forever. Join us as we tune out the noise of the world and make space to hear God’s heart for us.
