Six Things to Make You a Better Dad

Tim Wright

Proverbs 15

6/19/2022

Tim Wright

Proverbs 15

Description
The message is focused on dads, but the truths from Proverbs are applicable to all of us. Do you want to be a better person? Solomon gave some good advice: Laugh because it brings joy. Listen to wives and children. Live within your means. Love by controlling your temper and words. Lead by example. Learn from mistakes and listen to wisdom. Listen and learn. Be a lifelong learner.

Proverbs 15; Proverbs 16:14; James 1:19; Proverbs 18:13; Luke 12:15; Philippians 4:11; Hebrews 13:5; 1 Timothy 6:6-9; Ephesians 4:26

David, Lessons We Learn - God's Design and Spiritual Authority

Liz Dowdy

6/15/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
Think of David and two words usually come to mind: Goliath and Bathsheba. But there is much more to this man than that as we will discover over the course of this study. Many life lessons can be gleaned through the study of his life. First, God has a design and plan for David’s life. He was destined to be king of Israel. He was created, prepared and chosen for this purpose. No circumstance in David’s life was accidental.

God called Samuel to go anoint a king. It was not as he expected. When God calls us to do something the choices may not be right before us, it may not be like the past, it may not be the obvious, and it may come as a surprise. God had to plainly tell Samuel David was the one. Samuel anointed David with oil to be king and the spirit of the Lord came upon him from that day forward, although circumstances did not immediately change.

David began learning the lesson of spiritual authority. It is about serving, not being served. His first act was he found a king to serve. He was submitted to King Saul’s authority and became his armorbearer, lifting him up above himself and protecting his leader. God gave David a heart to genuinely love Saul, an unlovable man who had become a monster because of sin. David continued playing his harp for King Saul, soothing and refreshing him, knowing the longer he was king, the longer it would be before his personal destiny would be fulfilled.

1 Samuel 16; Psalm 139:1; Psalm 139:14,16; 1 Samuel 9:2

The Fullness

Tim Wright

6/12/2022

Tim Wright

Description
Paul wanted the fullness of the Holy Spirit. He longed to experience the power of God, the Holy Spirit in action. The Holy Spirit is what raised Jesus from the grave. He understood Jesus is enough! Do you want to experience that same power? Could it be that believers experience glimpses of glory every day and are not aware of it? How many God moments to we miss out on during a normal day? Un-attentional blindness is a failure to notice something in your field of vision because you are focused on something else. Think about the Pharisees. They were so focused on Sabbath law that they could not see the miracles happening right in front of their eyes. God’s passion is for the spiritually mature to see the miraculous in the everyday. Can you see the miracle, or do you see the common? In the story of Jesus first miracle, by faith Mary told the servants “Do whatever Jesus tells you to do.” Jesus took the common – water and turned it into the uncommon – wine. God uses what we have and turns it into a miracle. God, give us eyes of faith to see the miracles around us.

The Feast of Weeks

Liz Dowdy

6/8/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
The three feasts discussed in previous sessions are about what Jesus did, while this feast is about what Jesus gave – The Spirit on the day of Pentecost. In the Old Testament the Feast of Weeks was a one-day celebration where the people brought an offering of two baked loaves, one with leaven and one without. We will look at the significance of that as well as see how the New Testament fulfills this Old Testament Feast through Pentecost. The parallels are undeniable. In the course of this study we see how New Testament events involving Jesus line up precisely with the schedule of these Old Testament Feasts, and the Feast of Weeks is no different. God has given the gift of the Holy Spirit. It is for all believers. Receive the gift and experience new life, new power, and new freedom.

Pentecost - Living the Spirit Filled Life

Tim Wright

Acts 2:1-12

6/5/2022

Tim Wright

Acts 2:1-12

Description

Living the Spirit filled life is vital to the Christian life and a must for every believer. When you are filled with the Spirit it is life changing. It starts in a moment but is lived out every day. That is what happened to the people on the day of Pentecost. What they experienced changed their lives and caused them to be witnesses to all the earth. Can you image the scene? They were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. There were people there from every nation under heaven who began hearing the message in their own language. God was sending His Gospel message to every nation, every tongue. This demonstration of God’s power symbolized His desire to reach everyone with the message of hope that Jesus Christ is the promised Messiah. Have you experienced this life changing power? It is God’s desire for all of us. He calls us out of our comfort zone to live by faith. Surrender to His will. Be dangerous for God living a life of radical obedience and watch how God will use you to turn others to Christ.

Acts 2:1-12; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 3:17-18

The Feast of First Fruits

Liz Dowdy

6/1/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
The Feast of First Fruits commemorates Resurrection. Origin of the Feast came from the Exodus in the Old Testament where the children of Israel emerged from the sea – saved from the Egyptians, released from Pharaoh’s ownership, and delivered from bondage. After entering the Promised Land, the children of Israel would make a special day to acknowledge God’s blessing. Called the Feast of First Fruits. As we have seen in the study from previous feasts, this feast also parallels with Jesus in the New Testament. Jesus was the First Fruit of all who rise from the dead. He is alive forevermore. He ascended into heaven to present Himself to the Father as a sheaf of First Fruits. He was the unblemished Lamb of God, beaten for us, and offered through the Holy Spirit for a sweet aroma to God, and poured out as a Sacrifice. Believers have the new wine of His Spirit. Jesus the Great High Priest waved the offering for Himself and for us and we are accepted because of the blood of Jesus.

Pentecost - Allowing the Holy Spirit to Lead You

Tim Wright

1 Corinthians 2:10-12

5/29/2022

Tim Wright

1 Corinthians 2:10-12

Description
The Holy Spirit does amazing things through people today. He will refine us, change us, and bless us. If God were not guiding us according to His plan and His purpose, who would we follow? Let us allow ourselves to fully be the person God wants us to be through the Holy Spirit. God will reveal things to us through the Holy Spirit. The past, the present and the future belongs to God. Experience full joy and contentment that God brings to our life through the Holy Spirit. With His power our lives can become a blessing to others.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread

Liz Dowdy

Exodus 12

5/25/2022

Liz Dowdy

Exodus 12

Description
The Feast of Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were linked and mentioned together many times. Passover speaks about our salvation and the Unleavened Bread speaks about our separation from sin. As we examine the Feast of Unleavened Bread we see it is a Feast without yeast. The Bible often uses leaven to refer to sin because of its negative character. So, what do we mean by leaven? In English leaven is known as yeast or baking powder. In Hebrew the word leaven means sour by fermentation – rottenness, sin. You may be wondering how this relates to us today. In the New Testament the Feast of Passover and Unleavened Bread were considered one. Passover refers to what Christ does and is, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread refers to what the believer does to practically walk out our salvation. The seven feasts were fulfilled by Jesus. He is the undefiled, unleavened bread of God that came down from heaven. He is the Bread of life, the Living Bread that did not see corruption. This Feast of Unleavened Bread is a call to get rid of the bondage of sin. For the Church, it is a picture of the process of sanctification where believers are being cleansed and transformed.

Numbers 28:17-18; Exodus 12: 15,17, 19-20; Exodus 13:7; Leviticus 23:5-6; Deuteronomy 16:3; Mark 14:1; John 6:33, 35, 51; Genesis 3:19; Psalm 16:10

Pentecost - An Agent of Change

Tim Wright

Acts 2:1-4

5/22/2022

Tim Wright

Acts 2:1-4

Description
As we continue the series on Pentecost, we will look at the changes that took place in the lives of the disciples of Jesus at Pentecost and also the power and purpose that we can experience as God changes us into the people He wants us to be. God is interested in change. At Pentecost the disciples were changed. Understanding, boldness and confidence replaced confusion and timidity. Fire is the symbol of transformation. Are you willing to be transformed by the fire of the Spirit? At Pentecost there was a great harvest of the Spirit. 3000 who were not Christians were changed on that day. Pentecost can be summed up on one word, change. Our world needs change today. Our community needs change today. Our families need changed today. Many are as the disciples – confused, weak, and timid. But when the disciples received the Holy Spirit, they were transformed and energized to be witnesses of Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit wants to do the same for us today. It is a daily change. Allow Him to fill you afresh, to change you, to turn you into the person God has called you to be.

The Feast of Passover

Liz Dowdy

5/18/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
This is the first in a series Jesus in the Old Testament Feasts. There were seven Feasts of the Lord mentioned in Leviticus 23, one being The Feast of Passover. As we look at all the details of this Old Testament feast in relation to Jesus and the New Testament, you will be amazed at how God plans everything out so precisely. The correlation between the Old and New is amazing and clearly shows how Passover can be applied to our lives today!

Leviticus 23; Exodus 12:23; Matthew 26:26-28; 1 Corinthians 11:26; John 1:29; 1 Peter 1:19; Matthew 21:9-10; John 19:6; John 19:36; Romans 6:23

Pentecost - Pentacostalism

John Pyle

5/15/2022

John Pyle

Description
Three terms we hear describing those who believe in the infilling of the Holy Spirit – Pentecostal, Charismatic, and Full-Gospel. We will touch on that briefly, but Pentecost is more about our experience with God and other believers, not about theology. We give ourselves to be transformed into the image of Jesus by an encounter with the presence of God by the outpouring of His Spirit. We are free from the law but are to be ruled by the law of life in the Spirit of Christ Jesus. Pentecost is a human divine encounter. The idea of Pentecost is human participation in the plan of God. Life with God is our daily participation with Him as we walk through life. Pentecost turns us from being inward looking to outward looking. That happens through empowerment, divine healing, and sanctification. The purpose of the Holy Spirit is to transform us to the image of Christ. To receive the outpouring of the Spirit we must be obedient to God and seek Him. To be spirit baptized is a gift of God. Receive all that God has for you!

Pentecost - Empowered by Pentecost to Impact

Tim Wright

Acts 3:1-10

5/8/2022

Tim Wright

Acts 3:1-10

Description
As we continue to prepare our hearts for Pentecost, consider how Pentecost gives us the power to impact. Often power is a tool used to intimidate or repress. Power in the kingdom of God has an entirely different purpose, it is the power to impact. The power of Pentecost is for people. It brings Christ alive in us to communicate His love to those around us. After Peter and John were filled with the Holy Spirit they became agents of the miraculous. Why did miracles happen? Because they were faithful to do what they knew to do, they were focused and began to see those in need around them, and they were walking in the fullness of the Spirit which empowered them to transform lives. Can it happen today? Yes. Allow the power of the Spirit work in our lives. Then we can minister and bring healing to the hurting people around us. We need the miraculous in the church today.

The Rock

Liz Dowdy

Description

What do you think of when you hear “Rock”? It means different thing to different people at different times. Let’s talk about the Rock according to David. A rock could awaken grateful memories in David who had often lain concealed in rocky caverns. He compares God to a secure refuge; and declares Him to be his only protection, all-sufficient and never failing. The Rock is safety, solid, and a shelter. The Rock is hope and salvation. Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.

Pentecost - The Feast of Pentecost

Liz Dowdy

5/1/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description

Over the next few weeks as a Church we will focus on and prepare for Pentecost. To understand Pentecost and what it means for the Church today, we must go back to the Old Testament and look at the original feast as it relates to us. There were requirements of the feast. It was an offering made at home that they were to bring and present to the Lord. There was to be fellowship, joy and blessing. How does this Old Testament Feast of Weeks apply to New Testament Pentecost and to us? That is what we will be talking about in today’s message following a time of praise and worship.

Leviticus 23:16-22; Deuteronomy 16:9-12; Exodus 34:22-23; Acts 2:1-4

Faith for the Red Sea or the Jordan River?

Liz Dowdy

4/27/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description

How is your faith level? Have you seen it grow, or are you still at the point where you were when you first started following the Lord? There was a little-known guy from scripture by the name of Eleazar who had two big faith tests. On at the Red Sea and the other beside the Jordan. These tests came at two different seasons of his life and served two different purposes. There are lessons we can learn here. The Red Sea was bigger, but the Jordan required more faith. Let’s talk about it.

Witness His Resurrection - The Sealer

Tim Wright

4/24/2022

Tim Wright

Description
Ever heard the saying from David Foster Wallace “You can’t unring a bell.” The same is true when it comes to what a person sees - You can’t unsee what you have seen. And make no mistake about it, what the Roman soldiers stationed at the tomb heard and witnessed during the early morning of the resurrection impacted them to their core. They never forgot what they experienced. They went and told the chief priests what had happened and immediately the cover-up started being conceived among the religious leaders. The Roman soldiers were bribed to lie. But that would not undo what had happened. The truth eventually comes out. Jesus resurrected and came out of the tomb. Sin and death were defeated. Jesus is risen! And because He is alive, we can be set free from spiritual death. As a follower of Jesus, authority from a sealed heart made alive in Christ by the Holy Spirit has been given to us to live out our salvation and share the message of hope to all we encounter.

The Unexpectedness of Easter - Session 3

Liz Dowdy

1 Corinthians 15

4/20/2022

Liz Dowdy

1 Corinthians 15

Description
Everyone heard about the death of Jesus. That was not a surprise. Afterall, people crucified on the cross were supposed to die. It is what happens. No surprises there…until Easter morning and the resurrection of Christ occurred. The whole New Testament revelation rests on this as a historical fact. The fact that Christ died for our sins, He was buried, and rose again on the third day is the essence of the gospel. The resurrection of the believer promised is linked to the resurrection of Jesus. Paul said the doctrine of resurrection – the resurrection of Jesus and of the believer – is essential to Christian faith.

1 Corinthians 15:3-6; 1 Corinthians 15:12-20

Witness His Resurrection - Mary Magdalene

Tim Wright

4/17/2022

Tim Wright

Description
Mary Magdalene had her whole life rescued, restored, put back together, and turned right-side up by Jesus. He wants to do the same for us. She is the woman from whom Jesus cast out seven demons. She has the honor of being identified as the first person to witness the resurrected Jesus. In faithful devotion and appreciation to the One who claimed her during her own hell, she was there at the cross so Jesus would not suffer and die alone. While emotionally devastated she remained steadfast and near as He breathed His final breath. She likely sat in silent grief over the next hours and days before returning to the tomb to give proper attention to Jesus by anointing His body for burial. Little did she know she would hear the death-conquering Jesus call her name when she arrived. It brought her to her knees. In her initial encounter with the power of Jesus delivering her from demons she was changed from the inside out. She was a new creation in Christ. We are too if we have encountered Jesus in our lives. That is the reality we must hold on to as we walk through all our tomorrows. Let Him be Lord of our lives. Let us do our part, as Mary Magdalene did, to share with others about our encounters with Jesus and be witnesses to His life changing power.

Mark 16:9; Luke 8:1-3; John 20:1-18; John 8:1-12; Luke 7:37-38; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Luke 24:36-53

The Unexpectedness of Easter - Session 2

Liz Dowdy

4/13/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
In this session will taking communion together to remembrance of what Jesus did for us. Prepare by getting a piece of bread or a cracker and juice or something to drink. Jesus is our Passover Lamb. He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, and by His stripes we are healed. God gave Jesus to be killed like a Lamb for our sins so we could live forever. He is the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. He is risen and alive forevermore!

Isaiah 53:3-7; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Hebrews 12:2

Witness His Resurrection - Felix's Big Day

Tim Wright

4/10/2022

Tim Wright

Description
Witness His Resurrection – Felix’s Big Day | Tim Wright | Evangel Church On this day in Jerusalem, various details are unknown to us, such as the donkey’s name, the names of the disciples whom Jesus sent to get the donkey, nor the names of the people from which the donkey was borrowed and later returned. What we do know is that Jesus was at the center of this celebration. There was such hope among the Jewish people along the parade route because the people were beginning to believe that Jesus may be the long-awaited Messiah they had been waiting on for centuries. While Jesus was at the center of the celebration, the little donkey was right there too. The donkey, although a seemingly small detail now, represented a fulfillment of prophecy. The Messianic overtones from the chanting and singing of the crowds on that Palm Sunday stirred dreams of a new dynasty among the people of God. However, those same chanting voices would turn to “crucify him” withing the week’s end. They soon realized Jesus did not fit into their preconceived idea of a conquering King. Expectations did not line up with reality before them. Is that not how we are at times? We think of God one way in our minds, but our reality of Him can be quite different at times. Our expectations and who God is get reshaped the more we get to know Him through study of the Bible and relationship. Perhaps we could choose to do two things we see in the text of the Triumphal Entry. One, entrust what we have into the care of Jesus and say, “Yes.” The people allowing Jesus to use their donkey have no idea how the simplest thing will be used of God in a big way. Two, choose to celebrate. The people were singing songs and chanting truths of what they knew of God. Choose to rejoice today. Keep worshiping and looking up even when things in your life may be bringing you down. God sees you. God knows you. God has a plan for you. Stay available and ready.

The Unexpectedness of Easter - Session 1

Liz Dowdy

4/6/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
Many times, products, experiences, even people are not as we expected. That’s probably the way it was for Simon the Zealot, one of the disciples of Jesus. Simon was likely a native of Galilee and probably fanatical in his support of the Law of Moses. Simon was likely an active member of this freedom-fighting group, The Zealots, when he became a disciple of Jesus. But Simon’s thinking was changed. His zeal turned from overthrowing governments to following Jesus no matter that His teachings were different from His expectations. His views of Jesus as the Messiah, the King of Israel, the Redeemer, Lord and Savior were reshaped by the reality of His experience.

Witness His Resurrection - The Woodworker

Tim Wright

4/3/2022

Tim Wright

Description
What if you could talk to someone who was there at the time of Jesus betrayal, His death, or His resurrection, what would they say? What personal experience did they encounter? What can we learn? Jesus was crucified on a cross. Imagine the woodworker who made that cross. Why was he making crosses anyway and how was he affected by this crucifixion? As we consider this, could it be there were misaligned priorities in his life? Let’s think deeper about priorities for a moment. In the famous Sermon on the Mount, Jesus insists that a priority of outward obedience to God is not enough, it includes giving God our heart! A right heart leads to right living and a right attitude. Know this, spiritual problems are always heart problems. Jesus wants us all to consider: What is our priority? Who is our priority? Where are our eyes focused? The things we treasure most control our direction and values. Do you like the direction your life is going?

Birth Order According to the Bible - The Only Child

Liz Dowdy

3/30/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
Only children will never experience sibling rivalry or dethronement. They have the best and worst of all worlds, over-achieving oldest and pampered babies. They get all their parent’s attention and enjoy pros and cons that both the oldest and youngest sibling would have. The key to understanding an only child is know why he or she is an only. Two examples of only children we will discuss from Scripture are Sampson and Esther. The session will close with a few take-aways from the birth order series. Every birth order has its own strengths and weaknesses. As re recognize both of these in us, we can know that God, who created us, can empower us to strengthen our weak points and even strengthen our strong points.

Judges 13-16; Esther 2-5

Comfort

Tim Wright

Tim Wright

Description
Comfort. Something we all need at times. The Bible has a lot to say to us concerning the comfort given to us by God. When we are going through it, go to the Word. It will bring comfort. As we look at numerous passages today on this subject, be encouraged by the Father of Compassion and the God of all comfort. Rely on His Word. God’s comfort is exceptional, sufficient, certain, and never ending. And what does His comfort look like? It comes in the form of peace, joy and His presence. His promise is that we would not be alone. In the same way Jesus dwelt with and comforted His disciples, we have a comforter, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of truth, who dwells with us. So be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid. The Lord our God goes with us, and He will not leave us or forsake us.

Birth Order According to the Bible - Last Born or Baby

Liz Dowdy

3/23/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
If the way parents treat their children affects the way they “turn out” and if parents treat their children differently depending on where they fall in the birth order, then birth order affects your personality. That’s why a siblings can have different views about how things were growing up. And that perceived reality affects how we feel about ourselves and how we relate to others. This session will focus on last born or baby, the ones never displaced by a newborn. In this session we will look at three last born children from the Old Testament – Gideon, David, and Moses. We will look at strengths and weaknesses in each. You may see characteristics in these characters that you can identify with in yourself or your own siblings. But know this, you do not have to live out negative stereotypes about birth order and personalities. God can and will help you strengthen and overcome your weaknesses. He will continue to make your strong qualities stronger.

Colossians 1:1-18

Description
Ever feel lost in a life that is not ours? A life not designed for us. If we held up an imaginary mirror, what do we see? Do we see how we see ourselves? Do we see how others perceive us? Or do we see how God sees us? If we have entered into a personal relationship with Jesus, we can know above all that we are a child of God. No matter what has happened, no matter how we feel, we are a child of God. Jesus is the image of God, the exact likeness. He is all we ever needed and all we will ever need. He has redeemed us through His blood, rescued us from darkness into the light. As a child of God we are being transformed day by day to the image of Jesus. So let us begin to see ourselves differently. Let us see ourselves the way God sees us.

Refueling

Tim Wright

Description
If we have a car and it just sits in the driveway, what good is it? In order to be of value, we must drive it. That begins when we start the engine. We can drive around town, but we do not stop to get to refuel we will soon find ourselves stopped and off on the side of the road. The same is true spiritually. If Christianity is just sitting doing nothing, what good is it? If we are living out our Christianity, then we need to refuel spiritually. How do we do that?

Birth Order According to the Bible - First Born

Liz Dowdy

3/9/2022

Liz Dowdy

Description
Throughout this study remember all general statements regarding birth order are indicators, not rules. Each birth order has its unique characteristics with strengths and weaknesses. You may identify with some characteristics, but not all. There are many of variables. As we define first born it could mean the oldest child, the oldest of a sex, having a five-year gap between child of the same sex, or achieving a role reversal. We will look at biblical indicators of firstborn siting examples pointing out character strengths and weaknesses. This is a fascinating topic that will help us understand ourselves and others better.

We Are The Church - Mentoring

Tim Wright

Psalm 71:17-18

3/6/2022

Tim Wright

Psalm 71:17-18

Description
It is difficult to cross generational lines; and yet, we are supposed to share the love of Christ with the next generation. One way to minister to the succeeding generation effectively is through mentoring. Mentoring is simply training someone beneath us. It is an important task for Christians. We have the greatest legacy in the world to pass down to the next generations, that is the legacy of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
