When I say anger, what do you think of? Is it the image of a big, aggressive man? Anger isn’t always yelling at people or fighting; it is internal before it becomes external. Anger accuses people. It’s bitter and jealous. It shuts people out. Anger says damaging things that hurt the person and ourselves.
Where does anger come from and how does God want to deal with it? Let's learn and grow together.

What do we need to be content? Is it okay to settle? Should I desire anything beyond what I currently have in my possession? Biblical contentment is not laziness, neither is it setting the bar low and being satisfied with sin in our lives. True Biblical contentment is filled with desire and holy ambition. It is pregnant with faith and allows us to rest in Jesus Himself as our source of all provision, both temporal and eternal. Let your faith be built up as you listen to this Bible study recorded at First New Testament Church.

Just like different categories of movies, so the Bible is filled with different genres, or types, of scripture. There is the lesson-filled history, heart-touching poetry, and harrowing prophecy. Within our Bibles is also the genre of lament, or complaint to God. Though it may sound strange, nearly half of the Psalms are laments and there is even a book called Lamentations. Amazingly, God invites us to lament to Him and in the complaint to find healing, freedom, and intimacy with the God who listens and responds to our cries for help and frustration.
So go on...pour out your heart to Jesus.

What does the cross mean to Satan? So often we think of the cross in terms of ourselves and God, but fail to realize its implications to the Enemy of our soul. See how the cross responds to Satan's awful reign as our accuser, tempter, and cruel king. You will be blessed, encouraged, and provoked as you meditate on this truth!

There have always been crowds of people who have drawn just close enough to Jesus to hear His words and to receive His help. Though Jesus is gracious enough to minister to these lives, it does not mean that they are His disciples or that Jesus is committed to them. Jesus demands something more from our lives; a faith that provokes action and moves us beyond the crowd, beyond the religious, and beyond our own will.

The terms deconstruction and exvangelicalism have come to the forefront of Christian news. Every service, you may be sitting next to someone who is beginning to deconstruct or who has been in the process for years. If the body of Christ is to flourish, we must be armed with the knowledge of what deconstruction is and isn't, so that we can combat the satanic attacks of the exvangelical movement. We all have questions, and we must all be allowed to study for ourselves to know what we believe. The real point is, do those questions lead us to Christ or away from him?

Surely, Socialists are wrong about everything, right?! Not always. How should we respond when Socialists make a good point, such as the need to care for the poor? Is there a Biblical model for this? Let's look at what God says and how we should be careful to listen and respond Biblically to arguments made for Socialism. You might just end up buying lunch for a socialist...and giving them the Gospel while you do it!
This is part 3 of a 3 part series taught at my local church's young adults Sunday School.

It can be shocking to hear that someone who claims to follow Christ also supports Socialism/Marxism. So, why do Progressive Christians support socialism and what are the basic tenets of Progressive Christianity? More than any political party, Progressive Christians may provide an even harder challenge to those who faithfully follow Jesus, due to their isolation and twisting of scripture. Find out the basics of this movement and stand firm in your faith.
This is part 2 of a 3 part series taught at my local church's young adults Sunday School. For a more detailed analysis of Progressive Christianity, be sure to check out The Alisa Childers Podcast and specifically the Progressive Christianity series created by Alisa Childers and Mike Winger.

Let's review the modern American Socialist movement through a Biblical lens. Socialism is much more than just economics and politics; it is an entire worldview whose very foundational assumptions must be scrutinized against scripture. This is part 1 of a 3 part series*, and while I certainly do not cover all possible points, it provides a basic understanding which I pray will be of value. Feel free to share with your youth group, young adults, or anyone else who may be helped by it.
For a discussion on race, racism, discrimination, and intersectionality (which I did not attempt to cover in this brief teaching) please see the following video by Mike Winger and Neil Shenvi.

What was it that changed the wisest man on earth into a fool and how can I avoid the same tragic mistake? Let’s take a look at the life of Solomon and see how someone who was discipled by the worshipper of God, divinely gifted, and had experienced God's powerful presence himself fell into ruin and brought his household and nation with him. No matter our age, we must learn from history so that we do not repeat it ourselves.

The Christian life is not a game, so quit acting like it is! When we were saved by Jesus, we were enlisted into his ranks and clothed with battle array. It’s time to quit wasting time and energy with the things of this world and let God make us into what He has called us to be, soldiers of the Cross. This earth is our battlefield, and the enemy is not physical, which makes it all the more difficult to stay awake and alert.
Be stirred and prepare your heart to serve the Lord! He is coming soon, and our time to advance God’s Kingdom is short!
