For The Love of God...Enough Already (Exodus 4:1-17)

Elder Tom Toone shares from Exodus 4:1-17. In this passage, Moses is told by God to do something for Him, just like He tells us to do things for Him. Moses comes up with reasons/excuses for why he can't do what the Lord is asking, just like we come up with reasons/excuses for ignoring God's directions. God is patient and gracious in reassuring Moses up to a certain point. God is patient and gracious with us as well up to a certain point. Ultimately, it is time for Moses to simply trust and obey God, just like we need to fully trust and obey.

What reasons/excuses do I come up with for not doing what God is asking me to do?
How can I trust and obey God?

What does it mean that God is holy? What difference should that make in my life?

Who Is Jesus? | Our God Is Faithful (Mark 14:26-31)

Pastor Tom will shares from Mark 14:26-31 about Jesus' prediction that His disciples would deny and abandon Him. Jesus knew from eternity past that they would deny Him and leave Him all alone, and yet, He still goes before them and claims them as His own. He does the same with us. When we are faithless, we can rest knowing that Jesus will be faithful.

How have I been faithless to Jesus?
How has He remained faithful to me?

God Feels Distant...Now What?

We continue seeking the answer to the question “Now What?” How should we live in this confusing time? What should we do?

This week, we are going to think about what we should do when God feels distant. With all the craziness in the world today, we can sometimes wonder if God is really with us. In Psalm 19, we will discover where and how we can see God at all times.

Do I feel close to God or does He seem distant? What should I do to get closer to God?
