  • The Gospel for a New Generation

    The Gospel for a New Generation

    What do we say to the next generation? How do we reach the next generation? I think these are questions that every generation asks, and I think they are the wrong questions. Let me explain. I love youth ministry and I am passionate about evangelism. Within the last 100 years these questions caused much of…

  • There Is Only One Reason Christians Don’t Worry, and Only One Reason They Do

    There Is Only One Reason Christians Don’t Worry, and Only One Reason They Do

    In the previous section of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5), we saw that Jesus addressed six popular teachings that were contrary to the actual message of the Old Testament after committing verbally to remaining faithful to the Old Testament Scriptures. The major way in which the Old Testament was misused, according to Jesus’…

  • What Should I Look For in a Pastor?

    What Should I Look For in a Pastor?

    We see all types of pastors in the world today. I seem to notice that most of these pastors are not Biblical pastors. They may be friendly. They may have some administrative skill. They may have some knowledge of the Bible. They may be compassionate. They may be good listeners. They may be very fun-loving…

  • New Resources and New Opportunities to Get Involved as We Grow in Our Ministry

    New Resources and New Opportunities to Get Involved as We Grow in Our Ministry

    A huge part of our ministry moving forward will be providing free resources to pastors and churches around the world. To help and to stir the hearts and minds of pastors and other church teachers, we’ve added a Bible Study Index. We are still compiling material and will be adding material at least once-a-week. As…

  • Do churches need Overseers or Bishops? What does that even mean?

    Do churches need Overseers or Bishops? What does that even mean?

    Last week, we saw the role of the church elders and what is seen as the basic responsibilities of one who holds the elder position in a church body. The responsibility of the elder is essentially one of doctrinal authority in service to the body. In Elders in the Life of the Church, the authors…

  • God’s Self-Revelation

    God’s Self-Revelation

    Last week, we spent our time talking about what it meant that Samuel was being established as the first Old Testament prophet. We also talked about the purpose that the Old Testament prophetic office had in redemptive history as Christ’s throne within His creation was prepared. The text for this morning sounds very familiar. That’s…

  • What Is A Biblical Elder?

    What Is A Biblical Elder?

    “The danger facing modern congregations is to read into the Scriptures our twenty-first-century ideas about church government. We have added plenty of bells and whistles: directors of mass media, pastors of recreation, Sunday School committees, boards of directors, not to mention all the seminars and books that tell churches ‘how to do it.’ The drive…

  • Hunger for the Explicit Word

    Hunger for the Explicit Word

    Submit your questions using the contact form, on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or LinkedIn. In the sermon this last Sunday, we observed how the Bible describes and prescribes prophecy so that we know what Samuel is being ordained for as we walk through the narrative. During the course of the sermon, I made a statement that…
