Revive Your Church! Read 2 Chronicles 7:11-20. God speaks of “My people” (Israel) and “this house” (the temple). How does seeing the temple as God’s throne room (1 Chr 28:2; Isa 6:1) inform those in the church of our approach to repentance and prayer (7:14)?Read Revelation 2:4–5. Spurgeon said revival is when God’s people “return to their first love.” What does “first love” look like in our church...  Read More

2 Chronicles 7:11-2011 So Solomon finished the Temple of the LORD, as well as the royal palace.

All throughout Scripture, we see God’s heart for the hungry and the hurting. In Proverbs 19:17 we are reminded that “If you help the poor, you are lending to the LORD - and he will repay you.” This principle is a big reason that we are sticking with our 17-year tradition that we call the Thanksgiving Offering & Food Drop. In our own community, there are families quietly struggling to put food on t...  Read More

Read Psalm 85 and Isaiah 57Reflecting on Psalm 85:1-7, the psalmist recalls God's past restoration and forgiveness while pleading for revival today. What specific ways has God shown mercy or "restored the fortunes" in your own life or our church community, and how does this fuel your personal prayer for Him to "revive us again" (v. 6)?Isaiah 57:15  describes God dwelling with the "contrite and hum...  Read More

What is the definition of the word glory? What are some passages of Scripture that come to mind that speak about God’s glory? (There are over 600 in the Bible).Is God selfish for wanting all the glory? Why or why not? Have you ever considered/struggled with this?God in and of Himself is self-deferential. The life of the Triune God is a glory, not of demand, but of deferring to the other. The Fathe...  Read More

How can you practically test teachings or de...  Read More
