Daily work can often feel like meaningless toil. Repetitive, mundane effort. We wake, we work, we sleep, only to start the process all over again… as the clock ticks on. But understanding the spiritual significance of our work as serving God brings an unexpected meaning to every day life.
People admire celebrities for various reasons. Some can be healthy reasons. By that, I mean aspirational or motivational. You can admire somebody who takes his talent, combines it with a work ethic and makes creations that thousands of people can enjoy. But people can admire celebrities for unhealthy or pathological or pathological reasons—especially if you feel like a nobody and envy the rich and famous, or those that are excellent in what they do. Fans will do an...
We’re tempted to believe that God's not really for us. If He's not for us, He must be against us, at least somewhat. He's actually a barrier to what would really make me happy. Just by who He is, He blocks my personal happiness. He stands opposed to me. Therefore He is an adversary. But the message today is contrary to all of that. The message is: God is not your Adversary.

What does a new humanity look like?Colossians 3:8-17 describes what a new life in Christ looks like.
David Powlison crafted probing questions that help us understand the condition of our hearts. What do I love most? Peoples’ approval? Comfort? Control? Which voice in this world do I obey? Whom must I please? What makes me tick? What sun does my planet revolve around? The point of all these questions is to help us find the idols of our hearts.
Have you ever wished you could be someone else? Several people made comments along this line on Reddit. Here are some examples of what they said:"I wish I was pretty. I wish I was successful. I wish I had friends. I wish I had a boyfriend. I wish I was happy. I wish I wasn't broken. I wish I had hope. I wish I was worth anything to anyone."Someone else wrote: ”I built up an ideal version of myself in my head, and while daydreaming about it is nice, it kills me to know I'll n...
People often feel that religion is just an atmosphere of control, judgmental-ism, and rules, along with extreme and strange views. This is all too true in aberrant religious movements throughout history—even some religious movements that take the name of Christ. Instead of enjoying the freedom and joy that the Gospel brings into the life of a Christian, we take the gospel, a gift from God, and turn it into hierarchical power structures, religious domineering, and atmospheres of su...

Summary of message notes written by Tom Black:The virtues and values which have for some time undergirded our national character are under direct attack by the forces of those who have embraced the ideology and agenda of so-called "progressivism," which is the driving force behind the drastic spiritual and moral decline in our culture today with its destructive effects on our society. Seen as an enemy of the progressives, and an obstacle to their goal of radically transforming society, even t...
Preeminent. What does it mean? Preeminent means “distinguished, or supreme, surpassing all others. It describes someone or something that is of the highest rank or importance, paramount rank, or dignity. Something outstanding. Something supreme. In the New Testament Book of Colossians, the Apostle Paul reminds us that Jesus Christ is the truly preeminent one, not just in the Field of Teaching, or in Religious History, or simply in the Minds of Christians. No, Pa...
Angel Falls, Niagra Falls, Victoria Falls are some of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world. Definitely the most visited. There’s Yosemite Falls as well, the Gullfoss Waterfalls in Iceland, the Sutherland Falls in New Zealand. People travel the world and spend their fortunes to see their beauty—feel the power of them—hear the crushing weight of water plunging downward.But what if I told you all this descriptive language was a waste of time. All the travel document...
“Don't think about making women fit the world — think about making the world fit women,” Gloria Steinem said. It’s a pretty famous quote. I haven’t followed Steinem’s writings, but this quote is a great launching point to discuss the idea of subjectivism. And the issue goes much broader than what we call “women’s issues.”And I want to make sure I hit this issue at the proper level. If Steinem means that we should change the world to make things better for women because...

Are we in danger of losing what makes us human?Have we been fatally poisoned by a dangerous idea?Is humanity at risk of losing its soul?
Standing on the grass between our houses, I got into a philosophical discussion with my friend. I had to be eight or nine years old and we got into a deep question. Are we animals? We had to know. It was important. We couldn’t agree, but we had resources to find out. All we had to do was run home and consult the authorities. This was years before home computers, let alone the internet.So… we asked our moms. My friend reported back and said yes, ...
