Nov 12, 2014 - Nov 14, 2014 Acts 1:1-11 In the first chapter of the book of Acts, the apostles were gathered in Jerusalem, waiting and even a bit confused. Would the kingdom of Israel be restored now that Jesus had risen from the dead? What was the nature of the kingdom of God? What did Jesus mean when He said, “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you”? Adventuring with God: Following in the Apostles' Footsteps read more

Oct 30, 2014 - Nov 3, 2014 Genesis 25:1-10 Many people expect the twilight years of their lives to be characterized by four “uns”—unproductive, unhappy, unhealthy, and unfulfilling. How unfortunate! We don’t find that kind of thinking among the great men and women in God's “Hall of Faith.” For them, life remained meaningful right up to the end, filled with important decisions, joyful events, and purposeful involvements. As Abraham neared the sunset of his life, he clearly didn’t waste his retirement years sitting around feeling sorry for himself. Abraham: One Nomad's Amazing Journey of Faith read more

Oct 27, 2014 - Oct 29, 2014 Genesis 23:1-2, 19-20; 24:1-4, 61-67; 25:20 On our walk with Abraham, we've seen the Patriarch at his best and worst, at his most faithful and most fearful, in radical obedience and alarming disobedience. Rather than waning during his later years, Abraham's faith increased, drawing him ever closer to his Lord. The longer Abraham lived, the more he learned to take God literally, trust Him thoroughly, and obey Him eagerly. As the aging Patriarch approached the twilight of his life, he turned his attention to finding a lifelong companion for his son, Isaac. Abraham: One Nomad's Amazing Journey of Faith read more

Oct 22, 2014 - Oct 24, 2014 Genesis 22:11-19 Too many people have lost their joy and are suffering a chronic case of the “woe-is-me” syndrome. They've either forgotten or never learned that amidst the desert-like sadness, sorrow, tragedy, and grief of life, God has planted beautiful oases of joy, peace, celebration, and laughter. This shouldn't surprise us, though. The world in which we dwell focuses on the negative. Weather forecasters speak of a 30 per cent chance of rain. Why not a 70 per cent chance of sunshine? Movies and television delight in exposing the dirty, disgusting underbelly of society. Abraham: One Nomad's Amazing Journey of Faith read more

Oct 17, 2014 - Oct 21, 2014 Genesis 22:1-14 Our earthly lives revolve around the people we love and the things we enjoy: spouses, children, friends, home, work, treasured possessions…even our hopes and dreams. These people, places, and things form the piers and beams of our daily existence, creating structure, comfort, and security. Remove one, and we experience an earthquake that shakes the framework of our lives. Abraham: One Nomad's Amazing Journey of Faith read more

Oct 14, 2014 - Oct 16, 2014 Genesis 21:8-21 One truth that emerges from the life of Abraham over and over again is that our vertical relationship with God is secure. Regardless of our moral mess-ups or foolish frolics, God's promises are fixed. In fact, it's because of His promises that our personal relationships with God are secure. When God forgives, He casts our sins as far as the east is from the west. He remembers them no more! Abraham: One Nomad's Amazing Journey of Faith read more
