Faith Beyond Feelings

[excerpt] "...and while salvation did come for those people gathered, shouting, and hopeful – only a few days later that very fickle crowd turned their hosannas to crucify Him.  Led by their emotions rather than the truth – they knew the prophecies, they had seen his miracles, they had a true reason to believe – rather than trusting they shifted and went with the momentary solidarity with the louder voices, the stronger presence, what appeared to be the mightier leaders – and aren’t we tempted to be the same?

Why Does God Allow Evil?

Why is there so much pain and evil in this world? From petty annoyances to crushing burdens. Why doesn't God do something about it?
Probably one of the greatest challenges facing each person, even Christians, is the reality of evil and suffering. Maybe you’ve gone to God in times of desperate hurt and deep loss only to feel that your prayers have not been heard.
These are important questions and while we cannot solve them all neatly in one short message, we can address evil and suffering and point to the answers found in God’s Word.
No pat answers...no, “just have faith” responses.

2 Corinthians 1;1-3:18 || Living An Alternative Lifestyle

Dealing with anxiety, stress, and false accusations - handling conflicts, being a trustworthy person, the source of true hope - so much truth and practical teaching in the first three chapters of 2 Corinthians - and it's all part of living a truly alternative lifestyle.

1 Corinthians 13-14 || Love & Order

(fast forward to the 2:30 mark. This was recorded live and there was some delay at the beginning)
Why the famous "Love Chapter" isn't for weddings and Hallmark cards...and should Christians speak in tongues? Should women be silent in the church? Lots to learn in this episode from the Corinthians: Love & Light Bible study! This message was recorded live and includes a Q&R session at the end of the message.

Creating a Vision/Mission/Strategy based on God’s Word

Download this Bible study at JenniferGRichmond.com and create your Vision/Mission/Strategy statement based on the Bible.
This particular lesson is from the "Corinthians: Love & Light" community Bible study - Lesson 4, Day 10 What is a Vision/Mission/Strategy statement? Corporations have them. Small businesses, non-profits, schools, and even churches have them too – a vision and mission statement. Organizations create vision and mission statements to clarify their purpose for existing, to keep their purpose focused, and to communicate to the world why they do what they do.
Then they add a strategy that supports where they’re going and how they’ve defined why they exist. Stating a vision and mission and laying out a strategy is a powerful way to clarify your focus, You don’t have to be a corporation to have one. With a vision and mission strategy plan you can keep yourself from overcommitment and stay involved with what is most helpful and most importantly: in line with your calling in Christ. Many people move through life by getting up, taking care of the day’s tasks, dealing with issues and basic needs, planning a vacation or a play date here and there, heading to bed, and doing that over and over again.
Having a vision with a mission and a strategy will tighten up your life’s focus, help you to keep things on track with what you’ve been called to be and do and give you the specifics to help you stay focused on what’s most important in life as a Christian.
The Dwelling Richly Bible study is for women who love God with heart, soul, mind, and strength. We are women who enthusiastically and intentionally dwell in the Word and let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly.
