God has hope for you here.
When you’re asked to defend your faith, you have to be ready. And you have to be prepared to do it gently and respectfully.
Why is it important? You need to realize it’s the only thing that’s important.

If you don’t delight in God’s Law, then you’ll be destroyed by the problems and sin in your life. Obeying God is not supposed to be a drag. Delighting in God's Commands is the only path to a happy life. Listen up, this one will make you glad.

Whatever you want—what you really, really want—matters. A lot. I'll also tell you the only cure for discontentment. You want to be happy and satisfied with your life? Well come on.

Kemper lays out the simple yet complex key to being able to tell true conspiracies from false conspiracies. "May you live in interesting times. We are swimming in conspiracy theories: Trump is a racist. Michelle Obama is actually a man. A secrete tribunal has replaced celebrities and leaders with clones. Bill Gates oversaw the genesis of COVID19. The government created AIDS to wipe out homosexuals. Many of our leaders are alien lizard people. Our society is systemically racist. (Some of these are likely true.)"
You will either know the truth by having faith in Jesus, or you will be ground to dust because of your unbelief. You should probably listen to this.

One big reason why our world is in the mess that it’s in is because we don’t trust anyone anymore. We don’t trust the media, we don’t trust the experts, we don’t trust our elected officials. The eighth commandment is “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” There's a lot wrapped up in this one. No lie.
This week we talk about the sexy commandment. Adultery. How to be a human being, it seems like too many people have forgotten.
Pastor Frank talks about all the times he's murdered people. It's a lot more than you might think. As a bonus, he'll also accuse you of terrible crimes and then offer you more grace than the world can stand.

First, a really interesting story about road rage and shame. Then, a bunch of interesting thoughts about the full implications of what "honor your father and your mother" means in all the areas of our lives. Sometimes in order to honor people, we have to wrestle with them and push them a little closer to what honorable really looks like. Of course eventually we get to how Jesus turns this into something amazing for all of us. Seriously, this is a good one to listen to with your kids. Or your boss, but that might be weird.

There’s not enough time. Not enough money. Then, as we get older—not enough energy. The world keeps going crazy. Life gets more and more insane all the time. God says We’ll get more done in 6 days than we will in 7 if we dedicate one of those days to Him. If we get together with the local church and remember the hope we have in Jesus. This is what church is, it’s resting in Jesus.
Yes, it’s a command. Yes, God is serious about it. But it’s a command to come to Jesus for rest. It’s a command that should sound really sweet to our ears.
The second commandment isn't so much about cursing and swearing, it's more about how we represent the name of the LORD. How we speak of God. We’re supposed to be the kind of people who fear and love God so much that His name sounds sweet on our lips. Lift up the name of the LORD, bless His holy name, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever.

What gods do you like better than God? Continuing in our "How To Be A Human Being" series on the Ten Commandments. It's fun to have your mind blown, isn't it.

This is how to be a human being. You just have to believe what Jesus has said about you. He said you shall be a particular kind of person. You shall have no other Gods. He also said that you’re forgiven. Believe that. This is a message about “shalls” (and it’s probably not what you think).This is what a Christian life shall look like.
There's a lot of talk about racism these days. What does the Bible have to say about it? There is good news for you if you listen to wisdom and don't act like a fool, or a victim, or a villain. Be slow to speak, quick to listen, and slow to get angry.
When we walk out the front door of our childhood home, how will we know how to get where we’re going? How do we even decide where we’re supposed to go? Transitions and how to navigate them. The world will tell you otherwise, but this book is sufficient. All the wisdom and hope you will ever need is found here.

Pentecost was weird but it's part of your story now if you're a follower of Jesus. There's a way to live that leads to life and a bunch of ways that lead to death. Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.
What does it mean for you that Jesus ascended to heaven? This is to help you understand what your faith means—the hope that it brings.

What are the biggest obstacles to people believing in Jesus? I think there are two: If God is real then why is there so much pain and suffering in the world? And why do so many Christians act like jerks?
If we actually paid any attention to what Jesus told us, neither of these things would be a problem.

These are some of the ways that God is like a mother. These are some of the ways that a mother is supposed to be like God. But these are also some of the ways we’re all supposed to understand how to treat each other.

For two thousand years the church has been characterized by a lot of different things, some good and some not so good. We are being tested and we must pass this test.

This COVID19 time-out that most people are doing right now is putting a lot of strange pressure on families. The most important gift we can give each other in this bizarro C19 world is to show some grace. This message is a timely look at Cain, Abel, and the importance of confession and absolution.

There might not be a more painful section of the Bible for the church than Romans 13:1-7. How are Christians supposed to respond to a government? What is government supposed to be for? What is government according to the Bible?
