It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out. (Prov 25:2) Ever thought about that verse? We glorify God, and find much enjoyment, by continually studying who he is, what he’s done, and who we are as he made us. With this category we talk about anything from theology to scientific discoveries and all sorts of brainy and booky things that give us wisdom and insight. So, ask questions or give answers; have at it! For a complete description of our categories, check out the Categories page.

You hear this a lot, but is it true? Is Christianity really dying? Turns out there are some underlying realities in the answers to this question that are actually quite encouraging. Take the time to watch this video shared from The Village Church Training Institute and you’ll be encouraged!
Is Christianity a decision you made once? Is it wrapped up neatly in a little prayer, long forgotten? Christianity is not confined to a decision or a prayer. Becoming a Christian means embarking on a lifelong journey of following Christ. But what exactly does it mean to “follow” Jesus? It might surprise you!
Is Jesus our example we try to model our lives over? Is that all he is? Actually, he was and is, and needs to be for each of us, much more than just a great example. Christianity is about how what he did for us, enables how we live.
Sin is heavy. We are bad. Why don’t you feel bad? Well there’s a really good explanation for that, and it’s not because you’re not bad. But sin can be defeated and there’s a way your state can change! There is hope and victory!
There’s knowing about God, and then there’s knowing God. It’s kinda crazy to think we mere men can even know about God, but how can a person possibly claim they KNOW God? Well, there’s a way and God has made it available to anyone who wants it.
God once gave mankind a very extensive law to obey. Why? If we don’t even follow the law now, what’s the point of it? Did it or can it do anything for anyone? How does it apply to me? All great questions that we discuss.
You may have heard about “the gospel” but do you know what it really means when people use this term? Here is an overview of not only what the word means, but an fly-over of the entire historical story this word has become the title for. A great starting point for understanding the gospel!
A recap of the #ScriptureIs “TweetSeries” we recently did on our Twitter account. Tweets were composed by community member and author, Reece Edwards. Share your thoughts!
What is “true love” and why do we use this word so often, vaguely, and flippantly. Let’s look at what “love” actually is – what the word means and what the feeling and concept means – as well as what it has meant in past societies like the Greeks who had more words for it.
Lance takes a look into major misunderstandings in the terms, claims, and beliefs of current GOP candidates we call christian. Namely: Trump isn’t a Presbyterian and Carson isn’t Evangelical. Share your thoughts!
As Christians we do have to wrestle with ourselves and others to understand hard truths. One of these truths is that our God is jealous. He claims this adamantly. So how can this be if for us as humans, the same God says jealousy is a sin?
I’ve found men have many reasons for why they don’t blog, but here are some unarguably awesome reasons why you should probably get started, now. Blogging has changed my life for over a decade. It will do the same for you.
A quick reminder on how we’re all in this process of maturing, together, and especially when it comes to our writing, we shouldn’t be discouraged that it wasn’t as good as we’d like it to be yet.
Are you maturing in the Holy Spirit? You may think you’ve heard “fruit of the spirit” talk before, but I’ve found not many have heard it this way. Take it from a recovering conman: I was once a poser and I still know how to fake it; so here’s how to sniff it out.
Because our great, Triune God is infinitely happy and sovereign, sin is treason that must be punished. Here is why…
Christianity can undoubtedly be called the only “one true religion.” So what makes it different from every other religion on the planet? Here are just a few simple ways to know and communicate to others.
Our God is King and Lord. He is in control and sovereign over all things, even the salvation and suffering of His saints. This is a difficult truth for some, yet it is a foundational truth for fully understanding and appreciating the gospel story.
Is God grumpy? Many believe so – but it couldn’t be farther from the truth. The foundation of the Gospel is God’s Trinitarian happiness. The gospel is good news because God is infinitely happy in Himself as Father, Son, and Spirit.
A full explanation on this popular phrase (you may have heard) and how it is sensible, Biblical, and affects every aspect of your life! You can be most happy and most God glorifying at the same time! This message will change the way you think about your faith and life, just like “#SuperSermons” should do!
In a previous post, we talked about being “born again” and what this means. Now let’s look at WHY we need to be born again and know we’ve experienced this “new birth”. Because without understanding this, God’s word says you’re dead!
What did Jesus mean when he said, “You must be born again” and what do many Americans seem to think it means? There seems to be a big difference. This difference is a big problem for anyone thinking they’re “saved”, because a closer look at scripture shows being “born again” is not something you and I just say.
Have you ever wondered why God has gone to such great lengths to save mankind and build his relationship back with us? We hear that he “loves us so much” and he’s “obsessed with us” but also that “all is for his glory!” So which is it? Is he all about us or himself? Which is right? Can they both be? Lance examines some scripture and reasoning that will help you figure this out.
From the very beginning, man has been involved in an elaborate rescue plan by God that we can see written out through the whole Bible in great detail. Man got lost, but God didn’t abandon us. Do you know the rescue plan?
What is the role of a pastor during the week? First and foremost, the life of the minister is the life of an Intercessor. Ministry starts on our knees.
We exist because of volunteers and generosity.
