  • In Psalm 30, David gives us an example of how we ought to respond to God’s discipline. In this lesson, we consider how to do that in a way that draws us closer to him.

  • In Ecclesiastes 1, the Preacher challenges us to consider the futility of our lives under the sun. In this lesson, we consider how God makes this good news and equips us to navigate reality with wisdom. This is the first in a monthly series through the book of Ecclesiastes.

  • Matthew 1:1-17 records the ancestors of Jesus. Why do we need to care?

  • There are two accounts of miraculous healing that are entirely unique to Mark’s gospel, in Mark 7:31-37 and 8:22-26. In this sermon, we consider how we can learn faith building lessons from these unusual interactions.

  • In Mark 5:1-20, Jesus deals with the most severe case of demon possession that we see in the Bible. In this lesson, we consider applications from: the way that Jesus responds to the man; how the locals in the region respond to Jesus; and how the demon-possessed man responds to Jesus when he is restored.

  • Jesus quotes Hosea 6:6 to challenge the Pharisees in two situations. In this lesson, we consider how to apply the principle, “I desire mercy, not sacrifice.”

  • In 2 Corinthians 13, Paul concludes this letter with a call for self-examination and some final instructions. In this lesson we consider the critical role that self-examination has in our faith and the need to strive for maturity in our faith.

  • Anger is a powerful emotion that we frequently feel, but God warns us of the danger of acting on our anger. In this lesson, we consider how to apply God’s wisdom to navigate anger rather than be ruled by it, especially by applying Jesus’ teaching.

  • Looking at what the book of Proverbs have to say about wisdom.

  • In Psalm 29, David urges giving glory to the Lord as he illustrates the incredible power of the Lord’s voice. In this lesson, we consider lessons we can apply from this Psalm.
