Finding Our Purpose Through Prayer

Tim Wright

5/16/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Our prayer life can look like a roller coaster. One way of stabilizing our prayer life is to use prayer to find our purpose in life. The only way to understand that purpose is to constantly communicate with God. Prayer is simply a constant conversation with God. Here are four steps to help you understand the purpose of our life through prayer.

A Wealthy Fool…An Angry Warrior…A Wise Woman

Liz Dowdy

5/12/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
Foolish, angry, and wise. Looking at 1 Samuel 25 we encounter three people who exhibit three quite different characteristics – Nabal, David and Abigail. We can learn from the experiences of others, both positive and negative. There is much wisdom found in Scripture. Get wisdom. And whatever you get, get insight. Session 1 of 3.

Wisdom for Family

Tim Wright

5/9/2021

Tim Wright

Description
In this modern age, how do we treat our friends and family when we have conflict? Do we “unfriend” them or maybe even “delete” them altogether? God wants us to be loyal in our relationships and help each other. The book of Proverbs contains God’s wisdom for daily living. This wisdom will help us to have strong and healthy relationships, especially in our families.

Heaven - Things That Will Not Be There

Liz Dowdy

5/5/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
We all like happy endings and that is what heaven will be. It is not a fairy tale either. In this final session we are going to look at a dozen things that will not be in heaven according to the book of Revelation. If you have made that important decision to accept Jesus as Savior, your destiny for eternity is already determined – Heaven.

What We Believe - Part 2

Tim Wright

5/2/2021

Tim Wright

Description
The Foursquare Gospel Church outlines 22 Statements of Faith. As we go through these Foursquare Foundations you will be encouraged in your faith as you learn more about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and His wonderful plan of salvation.

Heaven - Who and What Will We See?

Liz Dowdy

4/28/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
There may be things we do not know about heaven at this moment. But Session 4 will focus on the things we do know and can expect to find in heaven. If we know Jesus Christ as our Savior, there is great hope laid up for us in heaven. The God of heaven loves us and wants to spend eternity with us.

What We Believe - Part 1

Heaven A Place for Overcomers

Liz Dowdy

4/21/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
Do you realize there will be different degrees of rewards in heaven? The essence of each reward will be more of what the Christian desires most, a deepening of his love-relationship with the Savior. These rewards are for overcomers. There are seven “To him who overcomes” in Revelation 2 and 3 that we will talk about in this session.

A Positive Spirit

Tim Wright

4/18/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Your yesterdays do not always have to determine your tomorrows. We are familiar with Jonah’s story from Scripture. He ended up in the belly of a fish because of disobedience to God. Unfortunately, that is the part of Jonah’s autobiography that gets the most press. But Jonah’s story is more about a second chance than it is about God’s discipline in his life. The fish was not about judgment, it was about salvation! As humans we have a natural bent toward negativity. The text of Jonah’s story gives us the essentials to develop a positive spirit.

Heaven - Why Think About It Now?

Liz Dowdy

4/15/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
Our destiny seems a long way off, so why think about it now? Because our eternal future depends on today. Heaven’s priorities can be part of life here on earth. Focusing on heavenly things puts earthly things in perspective. The more we regard the world as God does, the more we live in harmony with Him and the less we are attached to what is temporary.

Who Is Jesus?

Tim Wright

4/11/2021

Tim Wright

Description
We talk about Jesus a lot. We use his name a lot. But how well do we know Him? How well do we know and obey the One we follow? We must stay in the Word of God, the Bible. The more we read it, the more it becomes part of our mind. And we access Jesus through the Word. In the book of John, Jesus made seven “I Am” statements that give us greater understanding of who Jesus is and what his position as “Savior” really means.

Heaven - Is It A Real Place?

Liz Dowdy

4/7/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
Session 1 focuses on a question you may wonder about, “Is heaven a real place?” It all begins with the resurrection, which is foundational to the Christian faith. It is the basis for our hope in this world and in the life to come. The resurrection points to heaven. As we look at Scripture, I will share with you two reasons why I believe heaven is a real place.

Peter and the Resurrection

Tim Wright

4/4/2021

Tim Wright

Description
All of us either have, or will have at some time, what is defined as the lowest moment in our life. Peter experienced it. Jesus experienced it. Jesus’ lowest moment was followed by His greatest victory. That’s the joy of the resurrection and the hope for us. That victory empowers resurrection in our lives. Let us journey through the highs and lows in Peter’s life and discover how restoration is possible for all of us.

Good Friday Communion

Tim Wright

4/2/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Good Friday commemorates the fact that Jesus Christ gave his life and died on the cross. If that were all that happened, it would be the end of the story. But no, then came the resurrection. Jesus conquered death, hell, and the grave and brought us hope! As we take of communion today, let us remember what Christ has done for us through the breaking of His body and the shedding of His blood. Then celebrate the glorious hope we have in Him. He truly does turn graves into gardens!

A Moment of Truth

Ron Borer

3/31/2021

Ron Borer

Description
Session Five in the Moments of Life Series will focus on Pilate and his moment of encounter with Jesus. Jesus is truth. Truth will transform us and shape us. Firsthand experiences are truth that cannot be refuted. Pilate presented a question to Jesus, “Are You the King of the Jews?” How did Jesus respond? What will our response be when confronted with truth?

Fresh Eyes

Tim Wright

3/28/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Sometimes we become so steeped in our routine that we stop paying attention to what we are doing. That can be dangerous! The same is true when it comes to the Easter season. The accounts of the Triumphal Entry, the Cross, and Easter are so familiar to us that we can easily go through the motions of a celebration without ever allowing the message of these events to touch us. Let’s look at these events with fresh eyes!

A Moment of Entitlement

Ron Borer

3/24/2021

Ron Borer

Description
Session Four in the Moments in Life Series will focus on Cain. In Genesis 4, Cain’s response showed that he felt he was more deserving or “entitled” you might say. We hear that a lot today. Proud people put themselves first and pursue their own agenda. They view someone else as the problem. Humble people are the opposite. God knew the heart of Cain and he knows our heart. When God confronts us and deals with our heart, we make the choice how we will respond.

Hope

Tim Wright

3/21/2021

Tim Wright

Description
If you have money, you have everything, right? Money can buy medicine, but not health. Money can buy a house, but not a home. Money can buy companionship, but not friends. Money can buy food, but not an appetite. Money can buy a bed, but not sleep. Money can buy the good life, but not eternal life. Zacchaeus was a man who had it all yet had nothing. Do you know people like that? Maybe that is how you feel. Let hope find you. Jesus wants to come to your house today, will you let him in?

A Moment of Preparing

Ron Borer

3/17/2021

Ron Borer

Description
Session Three in the Moments in Life Series will focus on Gideon. Looking at a particular passage found in Judges 6 we see that Gideon is referred to as a “man of valor”, but in the response Gideon gave to the Lord we hear doubt. Do we ever doubt God and wonder why particular things have happened in our life? We have all been there. God uses these times in our life to prepare us for what is ahead. Know God will be with us in all He calls us to do.

Living Stones

Tim Wright

3/14/2021

Tim Wright

Description
If you believe everything you are told or read on the internet, rather than check out things for yourself, you will just be “another brick in the wall” so to speak. The same is true in spiritual matters. Many times, we want to drink the milk and not chew the meat. We need to dig into the word for ourselves. Christians are not just “another brick in the wall” and neither is Christ. Christ is the chief cornerstone, the only sure foundation of our salvation. And we, as Christians, are living stones being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood.

A Moment of Choosing

Ron Borer

3/10/2021

Ron Borer

Description
Session Two in the Moments in Life Series will focus on Benaiah. “Who is that?”, you may say. We know he killed two lion-like heroes of Moab and a lion in the midst of a pit. As we will discover, he was a man equipped and prepared. He engaged and used what was available. And then he was honored. In living our stories, we must deal with expectations, intimidators, and failures. What is your lion? How will you choose to respond?

Hard Words

Tim Wright

3/7/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Why is “I am sorry” so hard to say? We have all been guilty of hurting people with our words and our actions. Jesus emphasizes the need for being at peace with the people we have hurt. God will give you the grace to make it easier to say, “I am sorry.”

A Moment of Stretching

Ron Borer

3/3/2021

Ron Borer

Description
Session One in the Moments in Life Series will focus on Jabez. Jabez was only mentioned in a couple verses of the Bible, a mere moment you might say. But there are lessons to be learned. One moment can change your life. As we unpack these two short verses, we can discover some life changing truth.

When You Know Who You Are

Scott Martz

2/28/2021

Scott Martz

Description
Ever get caught up in the moment and react in a bad way? Sometimes for good reasons like jerks on the freeway, strained relationships, financial pressure, or you name it. We forget who we are, disconnect from all that God has for us, hit the snooze button on the Holy Spirit and go it alone. Today’s guest speaker, Scott Martz, will bring things back into focus. When you know who you are, you’ll know what to do. This is something important we need to be confronted with as believers.

Why Do We Keep Praying? Pt 4

Liz Dowdy

2/24/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
When we pray, God answers, usually in one of four ways: Yes, Wait, No, or Different than we expected. Things to consider when we do not like the answer to our prayers: We may be praying wrong, God is not bound by our timeline, God will not take away free will, God is not our “butler”, our ultimate goal is heaven, God may have a better plan, and we are not God. Prayer is not just about getting what we want.

Being Shrewd in Our Walk

Tim Wright

2/21/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Some people use the term “wise” and “shrewd” as synonymous but being shrewd suggest thinking a few steps ahead. It focuses more on outcomes. Giving up something for a long-term benefit. So how does that relate to our Christian walk? You will see as we look at the story in the book of Acts where Paul and Silas were imprisoned.

Why Do We Keep Praying Pt 3

Liz Dowdy

2/21/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
God always answers when we pray, often in one of four ways. Yes. Wait. Different than expected. No. Now that last one is a tough one that nobody wants to hear. So, what about when the answer is “No”. What do we do? Let’s talk about it and gain some fresh perspective.

Be A Barnabus

Tim Wright

2/14/2021

Tim Wright

Description

“You look like you could use some encouragement.” Has anyone ever said that to you? Maybe they did not have to say it because the look on your face said it all. There was a man who lived in Jerusalem following Jesus’ ascension into heaven. He was well known for encouraging his fellow Christians. Let’s face it, Christians, then and now, need all the encouragement they can get. Encouragement is needed, given and received. Listen and learn how.

Why Do We Keep Praying Part 2

Liz Dowdy

2/10/2021

Liz Dowdy

Description
There is probably not a Christian anywhere who has not asked, “How long should I pray for something?” Or maybe you have heard, “If you really had enough faith, you would only have to ask God once for something.” I believe this is a contradiction to what Jesus taught. In Luke 18 we read a parable about prayer, a judge, a widow, and faith. What lessons can we learn?

God Can Change Your Thinking

Tim Wright

2/7/2021

Tim Wright

Description
Have you ever believed something, pictured something one way, only to find out that it was completely different? That happens often when people start to learn more about God. When we start to learn more about God, spend time in the Bible and spend time with Him, we discover He is not always the way we pictured Him. God can change the way we think.
