God’s grace comes to us and sustains us when we are weak. In our weakness, we become strong. Attacks show us how weak we are and make us dependent upon Christ's strength. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Leadership in Context

Thorn in the Flesh

Sometimes people get into deception when they over-complicate, over-analyze, over-spin, and bring things in from the outside that are not part of the equation. Be simple in your thinking. Not a simpleton. But simple. Clear. Not too complicated. Not too layered. Think clearly and in straight lines. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Deception

We need to be familiar with the Truth. We need to be very clear on the Truth. When we are talking about things, are we edifying people or are we putting more questions in their mind, making them more unstable, more fearful? God wants the gospel to be reliable. God wants the gospel to be sound. God wants the gospel to be consistent. In order for that to happen, you and I have to be consistent with it. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE.

Truth or Consequence

Where is your identity? Who do you identify with, and what do you identify as? In our culture today we are seeing identity politics. I’m a citizen of Heaven first, and then I’m a citizen of America. My allegiance is to the Kingdom. If I have to choose between obeying the Kingdom or an American law, I’m going to choose the Kingdom. The devil challenged Jesus’ identity. He is going to try to get you to get your identity wrapped up in other things. Let your identity be in Jesus. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Resisting the Devil, pt2

If the devil can steal your identity, confuse you as to who you are or who you are not, then every other blessing, every other purpose, every other destination God has for you can be stolen because he has now stolen your identity. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Resisting the Devil, pt1

When we make a promise, we must keep it. God keeps His promises to us. This is what covenant looks like. This is what the family of God looks like. This should be our reputation. We are a people who keep our word. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Understanding Covenant, pt5

We are redeemed. Our salvation should be prized, protected, and propagated. A covenant person understands their unique place in god’s redemptive plan and order. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Understanding Covenant, pt4

Today Keith pauses the series he’s been on to respond to the conclusion of the presidential election. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

A Clear Perspective

A covenant heart honors those who have gone before. Those who have gone before have passed on the stewardship responsibility to us. We honor them by stewarding what they fought for and continuing to build on it. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Understanding Covenant, pt3

Noah was not serving himself when he built the ark. He understood that it would benefit people in the future. Future generations would be saved. That is covenant. It is not about serving ourselves. It is about building Kingdom, Kingdom that will go on for generations. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Understanding Covenant, pt2

With a covenant, there is the idea that there is a third-party beneficiary. A covenant of Christ and His people are that we come together as the body of Christ to benefit the world. The Church, by its nature, becomes sacrificial. We come together not just for mutual benefit, but to benefit the world. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Understanding Covenant, pt1

Our blessing isn’t dependent on how much other people receive. Our availability and willingness to work in the ministry isn’t dependent on a job or a position. God blesses work. Let’s get up, go out, and get to work in the Kingdom! Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Heaven Comes to Earth, pt5

The fruit of the mustard seed is that it produces more seed. Our fruit is our seed. The Kingdom of Heaven is about producing seed. It is about sowing seed. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Heaven Comes to Earth, pt4

God is doing something in our hearts; He is doing something in the hearts of those we lead. He is building Kingdom. He is cleansing the soil. He is sifting our hearts. We need to be alert to the enemy’s plan to distract us to build our own life instead of Kingdom life. Show notes (posted every Tuesday) can be found HERE. 

Heaven Comes to Earth, pt3

Don’t wait until you are in a religious context to serve God. You don’t want to give into peer pressure and not do what you should do. Loving your neighbor looks like ministering on the way to minister. To be a good neighbor, there has to be an abundance of mercy that we are willing to share.
