The Psalms: Psalm 1 & The Two Paths
Have you ever felt dry, depleted or stuck? Maybe like you’re drinking water, but it isn’t quenching your thirst, its dirty water. Jesus offers us clean water, fresh water and living water. He offers us life in the midst of dry barrenness. His invitation to us today is to stop digging our own wells and reconnect to Him.
When the writer of Psalm 121 said “I lift my eyes to the mountains” what would he have actually seen in the mountains? Were they just beautiful scenery or was there something else on the mountains that might have been promising protection, blessing and prosperity for life?
What would it be like to know that you are completely safe and not need to worry about the need to protect yourself? The Psalms are filled with descriptions about God as a refuge, but what does that really mean for our real lives and how can we experience the refuge and safety of God?
The Psalms were the prayer book of Jesus and the hymnal for the church for millennia. In Psalm 23 David makes a statement that we often overlook about God’s goodness and love.

Genesis 9 contains one of the most puzzling and mysterious stories in the Bible—the “uncovering of Noah’s nakedness” by his son Ham and Noah’s curse of Ham’s son. What is happening in that story? How does it connect to Jesus and the Canaanite woman who comes to him begging for deliverance for her daughter? Are generational and bloodline curses real? What is the good news of Jesus about them?
Pentecost, Genesis 11 And The Divine Council Worldview Of The Bible
What does the coming of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2 have to do with Genesis 6:1-4 and Genesis 11 and the story of Babel. The Divine Council worldview of the Bible. To rightly understand Pentecost we need to understand Genesis 1-12, but to rightly understand Genesis 1-12 we need to understand the Divine Council Worldview that undergirds all of Scripture.
We gathered a panel of women to discuss what is like learning to follow Jesus as women and moms who have experienced the loss of children, the complexities of adoption, blended families and single parenting after being widowed.
How do you view the world around you? How do you imagine the spiritual realm and natural realm? How do they interact? What about you, how do you imagine yourself within that? The scriptures describe our world as one that is locked in a territorial spiritual war with spiritual beings that have been given power and jurisdiction over people groups and land. The good news is that in the New Testament,…
