Welcome to Single Focus. We will be delivering Bible teaching on various topics as we seek to know our Savior on a deeper level.
This week we look at Philip the evangelist and his divine appointment with an Ethiopian eunuch.
This week we take a look at Acts 17. Paul is a man on a mission to evangelize the intellectual crowd in Athens.
This week we cover evangelism in the workplace. Our testimony should speak and so should we!
This week we discuss a few methods of evangelizing when you have the opportunity to sit down with someone.
This week we learn about leading our children to Christ. It is a great privilege to show them (and their friends) the Savior.
This week we cover three different evangelism methods. We need to learn that different people will respond to different approaches.
This week we discuss fear and courage. We will see that the fear of man and rejection is not from God.
In light of all the faithful saints that have gone before us, what should be our response and motivation? Look to Jesus as our example for endurance and submission.
How does the faith of God in the flesh work out? How can God even have faith? Find out what faith Jesus had and how we must follow His steps.
Samuel showed his faith by proclaiming the truth while the prophets contended for the faith and suffered persecution.
King David appears in the great hall of faith for working righteousness. He did not take vengeance on his enemy and repented when he sinned.
All the judges found in this chapter struggled with fear, weakness, and pride. They are still recorded in this great faith chapter because they ultimately conqured the enemy.
Israel faced impossible odds, yet walked by faith in obedience. Rahab surrendered her life to the saving of her soul.
Jacob had to overcome the will of man. We must also overcome the outside influences in our lives. Joseph's act of faith was to wait on the Lord.
Trials and suffering in our lives should motivate our worship as seen through the life of Abraham. Isaac's faith overcame the will of the flesh.
Sarah clung to the promises of God and we also must hold fast to the promises by faith. Do not look back on the old life or you will fall into it again.
In this message we look at the faith of these Old Testament saints and how it "worked out" in their lives.
Faith is the foundation of our walk with the Lord. It is not blind, but is accompanied by substance and evidence.
This week we finish our look at the beatitudes. From poor in spirit to persecuted. Do you possess the character qualities Jesus described in His sermon? If not give this a listen to know in what areas of your Christian life you need work.
The beatitudes are often misunderstood. They are often viewed as a list of behaviors to perform. This is not the case. They are about our character, not a code of conduct. Join us to see what the first four beatitudes are about.
It is easy to focus on the negative aspects of life. But Bible believers should have a different outlook on life. The hardest things in life often produce our greatest victories. We don't have redemption without the shed blood of Christ. We don't have eternal life without the death of Christ. Check out this weeks message to hear about seeing the good in the bad.
In this time of uncertainty, confusion, and disruption it is easy to place our trust in the things of this world. However God makes it clear in His word that our trust should be in Him alone. Check out this message to hear what the Bible says about trusting God.
We all have the same 24 hours in a day. Some people make the most of what they have been given while others let it waste away. How do you use time? Find out what the Bible says about time and be ready to change for the cause of Christ.
What does it mean to have compassion? How does it work out in our lives and how did Jesus connect it with evangelizing? Take a Biblical look at compassion in this message.
This final week on finances, we look at saving money and recap some takeaways from the series.
This week we look at giving and its importance. Not just our money, but giving all we are and have unto the Lord.
This week we cover the "D" word...DEBT. Is it ok to take on debt? Is there such a thing as good debt? What does the Bible say? Listen to this and find out!
One of the greatest pitfalls in personal finances is covetousness. Learn how to fight covetousness with contentment.
We need to check our heart when it comes to finances. Do we love God or money? We cannot serve both.
Every believer must go through trials that test their faith. Do not wish your way out of it, seek the Savior through it.
We must never think we have hit our peak in service to Christ. We must always be pressing forward and not looking back.

Why is Proverbs written (partly) to give subtilty to the simple? Why did Jesus cry with a loud voice, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
