Who is influencing your life? This week on the podcast the guys discuss Adam's sermon about who and what shapes your life, and how to discern truth.
On the latest episode of the podcast, Luke and Josh dive into the first sermon of the "Wolves" series. They break down the key themes from the first 4 verses. Beyond the sermon, the guys also discuss a variety of thought-provoking topics, offering their signature blend of humor, wisdom, and engaging conversation. Whether you're following the series or just tuning in, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways for listeners at all stages of their faith journey.
NOTES:Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James,To those who have been called, who are loved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ:Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people. For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.Jude 1-4 (NIV)WHAT IS JUDE’S MESSAGE?Recognize the THREATHeed the WARNINGKeep the FAITHBOTTOM LINE: Grace is not a license to SIN.It’s an invitation to live TRANSFORMED.CHALLENGE: Read JUDE 3X this week.
This week on the podcast, the guys share some fun, casual conversations about everyday life and reflect on last week’s sermon. Plus, be sure to check out the brand-new segment, "In the News," where they bring their unique take on an unusual headline!
Before the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that his hour had come to leave this world and return to his Father. He had loved his disciples during his ministry on earth, and now he loved them to the very end. It was time for supper, and the devil had already prompted Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God. So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him. John 13:1–5 (NLT)Jesus showed his love to the END because there is no END to his love.MAKE AN IMPACTWe are called to be spiritual CONTRIBUTORS, not spiritual CONSUMERS. SEE a need MEET a need.BOTTOM LINE: It’s IMPOSSIBLE to love Jesus and not SERVE people.THE CHALLENGE: Meet a NEED this week.
This week on the podcast the guys discuss the latest sermon on generosity and tithing, diving into how giving can change your heart. We’re also excited to introduce a new segment called "In the News." And for some fun, stick around for "GenX Say What?"—a game where we test the younger crowd on classic Gen X phrases. You won’t want to miss it!
NOTESThe point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.2 Corinthians 9:6-81. PLAN your generosity.But generous people plan to do what is generous, and they stand firm in their generosity.Isaiah 32:8 (NLT)2. Trust God with the TITHE.A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.Leviticus 27:30 (NIV)Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the LORD Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.Malachi 3:10 (NIV)3. Start being generous TODAY.And I am praying that you will put into action the generosity that comes from your faith as you understand and experience all the good things we have in Christ.Philemon 1:6 (NLT)Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.Luke 16:10 (NIV)BOTTOM LINE: It takes faith to give FIRST. It doesn’t take faith to give what’s LEFT.THE CHALLENGE: Take the tithing challenge.
NOTESWalk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.Proverbs 13:20 (NIV)After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan became one in spirit with David, and he loved him as himself.1 Samuel 18:1 (NIV)1. A Good Friend PROMOTES.Who are you LOOKING OUT for?2. A Good Friend PROTECTSA friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.Proverbs 17:17 (NLT)Who are you STANDING UP for?3. A Good Friend is PRESENT.Who are you PRESENT for?BOTTOM LINE: Faithful FRIENDS lead to faithful LIVING.THE CHALLENGE: Make an EXCUSE to spend time with a FRIEND.

NOTES:Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of these men who heard what John said and then followed Jesus. Andrew went to find his brother, Simon, and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which means “Christ”). Then Andrew brought Simon to meet Jesus.John 1:40-42 (NLT)Andrew went looking.Then Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up. “There’s a young boy here with five barley loaves and two fish. But what good is that with this huge crowd?”John 6:8-9 (NLT)Andrew saw what no one else saw.They said, “Sir, we want to meet Jesus.” Philip told Andrew about it, and they went together to ask Jesus.John 12:21-22 (NLT)People found AndrewBOTTOM LINE : One invitation can transform a life.CHALLENGE: Share your story
These past three weeks have given everyone a lot to think about. This week, Adam, Josh, and Luke break down the series Clarity in Chaos. Listen in to their great discussion!
It's our 100th Episode!!! Thank you to everyone who has been listening! Today, the guys give us 10, top 10 lists. Should be a good time!
NOTES:What does the Bible say about our body?Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.” So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.” Genesis 1:26-28 (NLT)Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good! And evening passed and morning came, marking the sixth day. Genesis 1:31 (NLT) The SOCIAL Script: Transform your BODY.SCRIPTURE: Transform your MIND. And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:1-2 (NLT)
This week's a little different. The guys discuss how the new series, Clarity in Chaos, came to be, and some great points of view from each of them. They offer some great insight and advice. Listen in!
NOTES:Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.1 Corinthians 6:18–20 (NIV)HOW DID WE GET HERE?CORE IDEOLOGY #1: Expressive Individualism.“The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?Jeremiah 17:9 (NLT)Your identity is GIVEN by God, not DISCOVERED by you.CORE IDEOLOGY #2: The core of my identity is my sexuality.Culture says, EXPRESS yourself.Jesus says, DENY yourself.Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?Matthew 16:24–26 (NIV)For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear.2 Timothy 4:3 (NLT)
Luke and Josh talk about Adam's sermon about John Mark Comer's book, Practicing the Way and what it means to live like Jesus. So good! Listen in!
Pray. All the time. This week Luke and Josh talk about all that happened this past Sunday. Creative Arts was a success and the Middle School and High School kids helped lead, and Luke discussed why prayer is so important. Listen in!
NOTES:And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. This, then, is how you should pray:“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.” Matthew 6:5-13 (NIV)Two warnings:-1. Don’t pray for attention from man. -2. Don’t pray for attention from God. “Prayer is about presence before it is about anything else. Prayer doesn’t begin with outcomes. Prayer is the free choice to be with the Father, to prefer his company.” -Tyler StatonHow do we start? “Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10.BOTTOM LINE: Prayer is an invitation to enjoy God’s presence more than it is to requests God’s presents. CHALLENGE: Find time to be still.
What could be eclipsing your faith? This week all three guys discuss last week's sermon about breaking through the lies of the shadows satan tries to put in front of you. Listen in now!
NOTES:“Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat. But I have pleaded in prayer for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. So when you have repented and turned to me again, strengthen your brothers.” Luke 22:31-32 (NLT)THREE COMMON SHADOWS:LONELINESSThe Lie: LONELINESS is part of being a man.The truth: You are as rich as your RELATIONSHIPS“A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.” Proverbs 17:17 (NLT)APATHYThe Lie: There is NOTHING worth giving yourself for.The truth: You were born to live a life of CONSEQUENCE.“No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer.”2 Timothy 2:4 (NIV)AMBITIONThe Lie: Ambition is fuel for PERSONAL successThe Truth: Ambition is a gift for KINGDOM impact“Do nothing out of selfish ambition…” Philippians 2:3 (NIV)BOTTOM LINE:You were MADE for the LIGHTCHALLENGE: FACE the shadow. FIGHT the shadow.
It only takes one. Listen as Adam and Josh discuss Sunday's Sermon in the first installment of Summer Book Club.
NOTES:He had to go through Samaria on the way. Eventually he came to the Samaritan village of Sychar, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Jacob’s well was there; and Jesus, tired from the long walk, sat wearily beside the well about noontime. Soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Please give me a drink.”Many Samaritans from the village believed in Jesus because the woman had said, “He told me everything I ever did!” When they came out to see him, they begged him to stay in their village. So he stayed for two days, long enough for many more to hear his message and believe. Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not just because of what you told us, but because we have heard him ourselves. Now we know that he is indeed the Savior of the world.” John 4:4-7, 39-42 (NLT)WHEN DO ONE-AT-A-TIME CONVERSATIONS HAPPEN?INTERSECTIONSINTERRUPTIONSINTERESTSINTERCESSIONBOTTOM LINE:If you want to make a DIFFERENCE focus on the ONECHALLENGE: Have ONE “One-at a time” conversation this week.
What is the Holy Spirit saying to you? The guys are back this week to break down the final sermon in the series, "Survey Says." They talk about Josh's message about the Holy Spirit.Listen in!
NOTES: “Who is the Holy Spirit?”But in fact, it is best for you that I go away, because if I don’t, the Advocate won’t come. If I do go away, then I will send him to you. And when he comes, he will convict the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness, and of the coming judgment. The world’s sin is that it refuses to believe in me. Righteousness is available because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more. Judgment will come because the ruler of this world has already been judged.“There is so much more I want to tell you, but you can’t bear it now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future. He will bring me glory by telling you whatever he receives from me. All that belongs to the Father is mine; this is why I said, ‘The Spirit will tell you whatever he receives from me. John 16:7-15 (NLT)Working Definition: The Holy Spirit is God’s empowering and personal presence, making much of Jesus in your life and through your life.THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A POWERFUL FORCETHE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSONAL PRESENCETHE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR ADVOCATE.FOUR WAYS THE SPIRIT HELPS US:1. He SPEAKS.2. He helps you know what to SAY.3. He helps you know what NOT to SAY.4. He CONVICTSBOTTOM LINE:The Christian life is IMPOSSIBLE to live without the Holy SpiritCHALLENGE: INVITE the Spirit

Ephesians 5:33 (NLT)THE COMMAND:Husbands LOVE your wife.Husbands: Love your wives through SACRIFICE.Husbands: Love your wives by OVERLOOKING FAULTS.Husbands: Love your wives by PRIORITIZING HER WELLBEING.THE COMMAND:Wives RESPECT your husband.Wives: Respect your husband’s LEADERSHIP.Wives: Respect your husband’s NEEDS.Wives: Respect your husband by FORGIVING mistakes and being PATIENT with him.BOTTOM LINE:Your marriage will be as good as BOTH of you WANT it to be.THE CHALLENGE:What is ONE need I can meet this week?

You're not as right as you think you are... Luke and Adam break down part 3 of "No Offense."
NOTES:Then Jesus told this story to some who had great confidence in their own righteousness and scorned everyone else: Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a despised tax collector. The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayer: ‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people—cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like that tax collector! I fast twice a week, and I give you a tenth of my income.’ “But the tax collector stood at a distance and dared not even lift his eyes to heaven as he prayed. Instead, he beat his chest in sorrow, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.’ I tell you, this sinner, not the Pharisee, returned home justified before God. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Luke 18:9–14 (NLT) Jesus wasn't just concerned about RIGHT and WRONG; He was also concerned about PRIDE and HUMILITY. We don't change people by judging them, but by loving them. HUMBLE Yourself (or BE humbled) BOTTOM LINE: Jesus didn’t call us to only be RIGHT. He called us to be LOVING. CHALLENGE: “Do I have my own ‘thank God I’m not like them’ list? And if so, who’s on it?”
Rage monster...listen in to this week's episode as Luke and Josh break down the most recent sermon in the series "No Offense."
NOTES:And “don’t sin by letting anger control you.” Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry, for anger gives a foothold to the devil.Ephesians 4:26-27 (NLT)TWO TYPES OF ANGER: Righteous and UnrighteousWHEN THE DEVIL GETS A FOOTHOLDDIVISION DISTRACTION DISCREDITHOW DO YOU HANDLE OFFENSE FROM THOSE PEOPLE?SEEK to UNDERSTAND - don't rush to judgment.People with understanding control their anger; a hot temper shows great foolishness. Proverbs 14:29 (NLT)RESTRAIN your TONGUE- don’t spout off.Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.Ephesians 4:29 (NLT)BOTTOM LINE:OFFENSE is INEVITABLE. Being OFFENDED is a CHOICE.THE CHALLENGE: Pray for THAT person.
Are you offended by that? Listen in as Adam and Josh talk about the first installment of our new series, "No Offense!"
NOTES:Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires. So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls James 1:19-21 (NLT)Offenses will certainly come.Luke 17:1 (CSB) HOW CAN WE STOP BEING OFFENDED?1. GET COMFORTABLE BEING UNCOMFORTABLE2. LOWER YOUR EXPECTATIONS OF PEOPLEFor people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good.They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. 2 Timothy 3:2-4 (NLT)3. RAISE YOUR GRATITUDE FOR GOD’S GRACE For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV)BOTTOM LINE: We want to take offense into our OWN hands. Faith puts offense in GOD’S hands.CHALLENGE: Surrender your right to be offended.
The guys will try to answer some of your questions this week and discuss the last sermon in the series - The End of the World? Listen in!
Now concerning how and when all this will happen, dear brothers and sisters, we don’t really need to write you. For you know quite well that the day of the Lord’s return will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night. When people are saying, “Everything is peaceful and secure,” then disaster will fall on them as suddenly as a pregnant woman’s labor pains begin. And there will be no escape. But you aren’t in the dark about these things, dear brothers and sisters, and you won’t be surprised when the day of the Lord comes like a thief. For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don’t belong to darkness and night. So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. Night is the time when people sleep and drinkers get drunk. But let us who live in the light be clearheaded, protected by the armor of faith and love, and wearing as our helmet the confidence of our salvation. For God chose to save us through our Lord Jesus Christ, not to pour out his anger on us. Christ died for us so that, whether we are dead or alive when he returns, we can live with him forever. So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.1 Thessalonians 5:1–11 (NLT)The return of Christ isn’t a source of APPREHENSION,but a cause for ANTICIPATION.HOW CAN WE LIVE A READY LIFE?BE PREPAREDSTAY ALERTASK: AM I READY?BOTTOM LINE:Deal with what’s WITHIN to prepare for the END.THE CHALLENGE:What needs to be made RIGHT?
This week, Adam gave us five clues that point to the end of the world. Listen in as Luke and he discuss the sermon, answer some of your questions, and more!
NOTES:Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. 2 Peter 3:3CLUE #1: People will MOCK God’s Word.For people will love only themselves and their money. 2 Timothy 3:1CLUE #2: People will LOVE their MONEY.They told you that in the last times there would be scoffers whose purpose in life is to satisfy their ungodly desires. Jude 18CLUE #3: People will mock Christian SEXUAL ETHICS. Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. 1 Timothy 4:1CLUE #4: People will INCREASINGLY love FALSE teaching.From this we know that the last hour has come. These people left our churches… 1 John 2:19CLUE #5: People will LEAVE the church.QUESTION #1: Do I REVERE God’s Word?QUESTION #2: Do I SERVE money?QUESTION #3: Do I HONOR God with my desires?QUESTION #4: Do I let God’s Word SEARCH me?QUESTION #5: Do I LOVE the Church? BOTTOM LINE: When everything seems to be falling apart, everything is falling into place.THE CHALLENGE:Ask the QUESTIONS of yourself. QUESTIONS?Text: endtimes to 94000
Is it the end of the world as we know it? This week the guys unpack the first part of this new series. Listen in! Like and share!
NOTES:Eschatology = The study of last things.REALITY: When things look like they are falling APART, they are falling into PLACE.THE ESSENTIAL TRUTH: Jesus WILL return.However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.Matthew 24:36 (NLT) Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. They will say, “What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.”2 Peter 3:3–4 (NLT)Jesus WILL come back.It will be UNEXPECTED.So be READY. Be PREPARED.

He is risen indeed!One of the men hanging on a cross next to Jesus got to experience an amazing encounter with him right before their deaths. Listen in now!
NOTES:Two others, both criminals, were led out to be executed with him. When they came to a place called The Skull, they nailed him to the cross. And the criminals were also crucified—one on his right and one on his left.Luke 23:32–33 (NLT) Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Luke 23:34 (NLT)Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.” And Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.”Luke 23:42-43 (NLT)You’re never too BAD to recover from your PAST. You’re never GOOD enough to secure your FUTURE. You’re never too LATE to respond in the PRESENT.BOTTOM LINE: Who you USED to be isn’t who you HAVE to be.CHALLENGE: Write a declaration: who do YOU say Jesus is?
Listen to this week's podcast as the guys talk about Pontius Pilate's encounter with Jesus.
NOTES:Pilate said, “So you are a king?” Jesus responded, “You say I am a king. Actually, I was born and came into the world to testify to the truth. All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true.” “What is truth?” Pilate asked. Then he went out again to the people and told them, “He is not guilty of any crime. But you have a custom of asking me to release one prisoner each year at Passover. Would you like me to release this ‘King of the Jews’?” But they shouted back, “No! Not this man. We want Barabbas!” (Barabbas was a revolutionary.)…John 18:37-40“What? Crucify your king?” Pilate asked.“We have no king but Caesar,” the leading priests shouted back.Then Pilate turned Jesus over to them to be crucified.John 19:15-16What is keeping you from following Jesus? PRIDE: You don’t see your NEED for a SAVIOR because you don’t think you need SAVING.FEAR: Jesus might ask you to DO SOMETHING you DON’T want to do.COMPROMISE: You walk in YOUR WAY instead of His.BOTTOM LINE: What will you DO with JESUS?CHALLENGE: IDENTIFY your HURDLE

NOTES: Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, that you refuse to serve my gods or to worship the gold statue I have set up? I will give you one more chance to bow down and worship the statue I have made when you hear the sound of the musical instruments. But if you refuse, you will be thrown immediately into the blazing furnace. And then what god will be able to rescue you from my power?” Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. But even if he doesn’t, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.” Daniel 3:14-18 (NLT) HOW CAN WE STAND WHEN EVERYONE ELSE BOWS? Recognize BABYLON still exists Remember your NAME Realize the FURNACE can FUEL your FAITH Dear friends, don’t be surprised at the fiery trials you are going through, as if something strange were happening to you. 1 Peter 4:12 (NLT) BOTTOM LINE: You can STAND in your furnace because Jesus STOOD in His.

NOTES:They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 2:42-47 (NIV)Life Changing Relationships…SUPPORT ONE ANOTHERCarry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2 (NIV)“Encourage one another daily … Hebrews 3:13 (NIV)SHARPEN ONE ANOTHERAs iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom.” Colossians 3:16 NIVBOTTOM LINE:You can have COMMUNITY without DISCIPLESHIP.

Successful people do CONSISTENTLY what others do OCCASIONALLY.ALL IN = CONSISTENCYSo they called the apostles back in and commanded them never again to speak or teach in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John replied, “Do you think God wants us to obey you rather than him? We cannot stop telling about everything we have seen and heard.” Acts 4:18–20 (NLT)There were no needy people among them, because those who owned land or houses would sell them. Acts 4:34 (NLT)So God’s message continued to spread. The number of believers greatly increased in Jerusalem, and many of the Jewish priests were converted, too.

NOTES:24Jesus went with him, and all the people followed, crowding around him. 25A woman in the crowd had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding. 26She had suffered a great deal from many doctors, and over the years she had spent everything she had to pay them, but she had gotten no better. In fact, she had gotten worse. 27She had heard about Jesus, so she came up behind him through the crowd and touched his robe. 28For she thought to herself, “If I can just touch his robe, I will be healed.” 29Immediately the bleeding stopped, and she could feel in her body that she had been healed of her terrible condition.30Jesus realized at once that healing power had gone out from him, so he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my robe?”31His disciples said to him, “Look at this crowd pressing around you. How can you ask, ‘Who touched me?’”32But he kept on looking around to see who had done it. 33Then the frightened woman, trembling at the realization of what had happened to her, came and fell to her knees in front of him and told him what she had done. 34And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Your suffering is over.” Mark 5:24-34 (NLT)FAITH is a RISKJESUS REWARDS FAITHBOTTOM LINE:A step toward JESUS is worth the RISK!THE CHALLENGE:Take ONE RISK.
Blind and Helpless - Jesus heals a blind man.Listen to Luke, Josh, and Melissa as they discuss the latest sermon.
As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. “Rabbi,” his disciples asked him, “why was this man born blind? Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?” “It was not because of his sins or his parents’ sins,” Jesus answered. “This happened so the power of God could be seen in him. We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work. But while I am here in the world, I am the light of the world.” Then he spit on the ground, made mud with the saliva, and spread the mud over the blind man’s eyes. He told him, “Go wash yourself in the pool of Siloam” (Siloam means “sent”). So the man went and washed and came back seeing! His neighbors and others who knew him as a blind beggar asked each other, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?” Some said he was, and others said, “No, he just looks like him!” But the beggar kept saying, “Yes, I am the same one!” They asked, “Who healed you? What happened?” He told them, “The man they call Jesus made mud and spread it over my eyes and told me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash yourself.’ So I went and washed, and now I can see!” John 9:1–11 (NLT)It’s NEVER too LATE when Jesus is involved.Following Jesus may feel WEIRD.BOTTOM LINE:One step of OBEDIENCE can change your LIFE.THE CHALLENGE:Take ONE step.
