Family Devotional Guide / The Mission of God 06/09/2011
0 Comments
 
This is our family devotional guide for June 12-18, 2011. The questions are from Psalm 119:25-48, Matthew 28:16-20, 1 Thessalonians 2:7-12, and 2 Corinthians 5:11-6:13. The focus is God's mission and what our participation in that mission should look like. Each day also includes a prayer focus drawn from the scriptural emphasis for that day.

If you find this useful, please share it with others, either online, or make copies and distribute them.

Bible Study Guide: Ephesians, Philippians, and 1 Thessalonians 11/23/2010
0 Comments
 
1. From Ephesians 1, what things has God done for the church? How has God incorporated the church? How does Paul's prayer (Eph. 1:15-20) tie in with these themes?

2. If Ephesians 1 is about the action of God in forming the church, how does chapter 2 develop the same ideas, but with emphasis on humanity?

3. What prompts Paul prayer in Ephesians 3? What does he pray for? How is this prayer a model for us?

4. How does Ephesians 4 describe the diversity that exists within the unity of the church? How is this developed in practical ways in ministry?

5. What is the theological basis for the good works described in Ephesians 4-5?

6. How is the "household relationships" (Eph. 5:21-6:9) teaching rooted in our relationship with Christ?

7. How does the armor of God serve to both protect us and build us up in faith (Eph. 6)?

8. In Philippians 1, what experience does Paul want the believers to have (1:11)? How is this illustrated in his own experience (chapter 1)?

9. How is Christ an example for us (Phil. 2)?

10. What should we have confidence in, according to Philippians 3? How does Paul describe this in his own experience?

11. How is the practical teaching in Philippians 4 tied in with the teaching in chapters 1-3?

12. According to 1 Thessalonians 1-3, how did the Thessalonian believers receive the word? How is this a model for us of both teaching and receiving the word?

13. What practical instructions does Paul offer in 1 Thessalonians 4-5?

Sermon: Become Holy by Loving Others 11/30/2009
0 Comments
 
In this sermon from 1 Thessalonians, we looked at how Paul encourages Christians to be thankful for each other and to love each other. But what about people who are difficult to love? The only way we can truly love each other with godly love is to rely on God. This is how we grow in holiness--learning to trust God more and more, which leads us to greater love for others.

    On this blog I typically post audio devotionals, Bible study notes or resources that I'm working on for use at the Otisville Church of Christ, where I preach, or short articles about ministry and church leadership. Occasionally I post a book review.

    For more regular "microblogging," or to connect with me online, do so at Twitter or Facebook.

    I upload and post my sermon from Sunday each Monday. You can find sermons and an RSS link at my Sermons page. You can listen to sermons online or download them in MP3 format.

    Although I work for the Otisville Church of Christ in Otisville, Michigan, this blog represents my own thoughts and does not necessarily correspond to the views and workings of the Otisville Church of Christ.
