Complacency (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Giving thanks in all circumstances sounds impossible when you are grieving, out of work, or watching the bills outrun the paycheck. Haggai 1 supplies the shift in perspective that makes that command livable. Main text: Haggai 1v1-13 Outline: - Why "give thanks in all circumstances" feels impossible (1 Thessalonians 5v16-18) - God is a God of disruption (Haggai 1v1-2) - God is a God of exposure (Haggai 1v4-5) - God is a God of agitation (Haggai 1v6-9) - The immediate promise, "I am with you" (Hag
When a Burden Becomes a Blessing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This lesson examines Joseph's remarkable words in Genesis 50:20: “You meant evil against me; but God meant it for good.” Joseph knew betrayal, rejection, false accusation, imprisonment, and years of uncertainty, yet none of those things prevented God from accomplishing His purpose.

Amos: The Lord Will Roar (opens the original)
Read excerpt

From Ecclesiastes 3, Psalm 90, Ephesians 5, 2 Corinthians 6, and other passages, we consider what it me
Searching for Heaven on Earth: Careening Careers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Examines Ecclesiastes 2:11–26 and one of life's biggest questions: can a successful career, hard work, money, accomplishments, or professional recognition give us lasting satisfaction? Solomon worked, achieved, accumulated, and considered what would happen to everything he built after his death. His conclusion challenges the way we define success. This lesson considers the frustration and blessing of work, the limits of earthly achievement, Jesus Christ's completed saving work, and how Christian
