    Featured Verses: James 1:2-4 and  1 Peter 1:6-7

    Reflect

    In your journal or with your small group, share about a moment in your life when “hindsight” revealed to you that what looked like something bad, actually turned out to be something good (e.g. losing a job led to something better; a setback in a relationship led to a deeper level of love and trust; the day your cat died your allergies improved; etc.). Trial will either devastate or deepen. What has been the outcome of trials in your life?

    Episode 13: Empowered by the Spirit

    Episode 13: Empowered by the Spirit

    Featured Scripture: Acts 1:1-5; Acts 2:1-4; Ephesians 3:20-21

    Today’s message kicks off our most recent series called “Mud Run.” Throughout history God has offered strength to help people persevere through even the worst situations. This message series will identify where our strength lies to make it through the mayhem.

    Reflect

    Take a few minutes and read Acts 2:1-4. In this passage, Luke describes what took place when the Spirit would first be received by those early believers. We believe that each person receives the Holy Spirit at the point of Salvation and at that point has full access to His power and ability. 

    What has been your experience as a Christian seeing the Holy Spirit move and act in and around you? Write down some examples or share with your Circle.

    Episode 12: Looking on the Bright Side When We Have Our Doubts

    Episode 12: Looking on the Bright Side When We Have Our Doubts

    Featured Scripture: John 20:19-23

    Today’s message is about looking on the bright side when we have our doubts. Doubt is defined as “a feeling of uncertainty or lack of conviction.” This definition seems to totally contradict what we know, or have been taught about faith. Today’s message reveals that no matter how strong our faith is, at some point we may experience doubt. But instead of being a sign of weakness, doubt can actually be something that causes us to dig deeper into our relationship with God, and can even make our faith stronger.

    Reflect

    1. Many Christians who are very strong in their walk with God will point to the times that they had a crisis of faith or asked serious questions. Why do you think it works that way?
    2. How can doubt bring you closer to God? 
    3. This week reflect on Psalm 10. What are some of the questions that David asked of God? What do you think after reading this Psalm, especially knowing that it was written by a man who truly loved God?
