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.
In this video devotional, I contrast Paul teaching in 1 Timothy 6:6-11, 17-19 about godliness and contentment with his teaching against love of money and pursuit of material possessions.
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.
