Talking donkeys? Paid prophets? What’s going on here? Balaam and his donkey (Numbers 22) help us to think about facing temptations and living faithfully as we start a new series tonight. In the series, we’ll look at this man who teetered between listening to the Lord and listening to the world around him and see the ways we struggle with the same.
Are we showing the characteristics of joy in our lives?
What do we do when the things we do that we thought were lasting get wiped away? As we turn to the fall of the kingdom of Judea this week, Pastor Tim reflects on that question.
We are called to be people who show love God and love of people. That is what we should strive to be known for, not all the other things we often grasp onto.
What sort of excuses do we make to avoid doing what God has called us to do?
What is our mission today as a church and as individuals? How does it affect what we do in our daily lives?
As children of God, do we look forward to coming into God’s presence?
We all yearn for rescue from aspects of life… but is that just a fairytale hope? Melanie helps us consider where our help comes from as we turn to Ruth during this week’s 52 Verses, 52Books, 52Weeks.
Do we recognize how we are just a branch being nourished by the vine of our Savior or do we try to be the vine?
So often, we listen to those who deny that God exists and take what they say as wisdom.
