1 Chronicles 16: 10-12 How happy are you? If you are not as happy as you want to be or maybe you feel something is missing, I've got an uplifting passage for you this morning. One of the more encouraging passages in my opinion is centered around what we discuss this morning: how to be happier in the Lord. In other words, having a happy heart.

John 5: 2-9 Sometimes, sickness can consume a person. And when this happens, a person can link their identity to the disease rather than to God. Our identity always needs to be linked to God, so today let's discuss who can heal us from out ailments.

Psalm 9: 9-10 Where do we retreat to when life gets difficult? Do we have a stronghold to fall back to? Everyone has access to the best defensive structure we could ask for, but we have to know how to access it. We have to know to turn to the Lord in times of trouble. 

Matthew 7: 9-12 If you're anything like me you love giving gifts to other people... and even if you don't like that part, chances are you like getting gifts! Getting and giving gifts can be a challenge for humans. But our Father in Heaven knows exactly what to give us; even when we ask for something silly He will give us what we need. 

1 Peter 2: 17 Have you ever noticed people or things leave a legacy by being last? There's a good chance you could leave a lasting legacy too; but what will it be about? What will you be remembered for?

Psalms 138: 1-4 Surely we all give thanks to the Lord right? What do we thank Him for? David brings out an interesting concept when he is discussing why he personally thanks the Lord, and it's a concept that is widely applied and sometimes overlooked. So, I thought I would discuss it with you guys this morning! 

Matthew 28: 11-15 We've all been there: maybe we made a bad call or judgement and now we have been presented with evidence pointing to the truth. What do we do? Do we listen to the truth or double down on a previous bad decision? How late is too late to save face and seek redemption? 

Numbers 1: 17-19 When was the last time you had a major transition in your life? Transitions and turning points are crucial junctures in our lives and we need to make sure we handle them for the glory of our Lord. I want to discuss a story this morning about a group that hit a turning point and took stock of their resources. 

Acts 22: 12-16 A recent trend has concerned me in modern churches: the delay between recognizing the need for baptism and the baptism itself. I'm not sure what started this delay, but it certainly isn't scriptural. Today, we will look at just one example of someone who acted without delay, and that should be enough for everybody to hustle up! 

Matthew 21: 18-19 Many times in the Bible we are given the image of a Christian bearing fruit. We are instructed to bear fruit in our journeys and we are even warned what can happen if we don't bear fruit... but this story is often overlooked in the book of Matthew. So let's break it down this morning! 

1 Timothy 1: 12-14 Some of us have certainly asked this question before: how much sin is too much sin? How far gone is too far gone for redemption? The Bible is clear about the life of Paul and yet this passage tells us what the Lord used Paul for. 

1 Corinthians 13: 4-7 Today is Valentine's Day in the USA and naturally most of us will be thinking about love. But today I ask we all evaluate ourselves and make sure we are loving as we should be. This passage provides a second check we can use to make sure we are following the Biblical example of love. 

Exodus 32: 21-24 Who's fault is it when we sin? Who do we typically blame? Do we accept it is our fault and try to improve or do we blame it on some outside source and then play the victim? Is this passage we see an example of someone trying to dodge responsibility, so let's break it down and see what we can learn. 

Romans 8:28 It'll all work out... has anyone ever told you that when you're upset or stressing about something? Well there is some truth to the statement. Paul tells us in his letter to the Romans things do in fact work out for people who put their trust and faith in God and submit to His will. Let's go see what the verse says. 

Luke 12: 6-7 Does life have intrinsic value? In this day and age, some would say yes and some would say not really. But what does Jesus say? How does our Savior view life and how intimately does He know us as individuals? 

Matthew 7: 1-5 Most of us have heard not to judge others, lest we be judged. But I have news for you: we will all be judged regardless of how much we judge others. Today we dive into the often misquoted passage to discuss one way we can use holding others accountable to ensure our walk with Christ is what it needs to be.   

Philippians 1: 12-14 In this passage we see Paul describing how he used the circumstances he was in to further the gospel of Christ. That got me thinking; do we use the circumstances we are presented with to further the gospel? Whether good or bad, we can use any circumstance we are presented with to show the world our Christianity. 

2 Corinthians 5: 14-15 Who or what do we live for? Most of us would answer Christ or God, but do we know why we should be devoting our lives to them? Do we truly understands what motivates us to live good Christian lives? Today we discuss what Christ has done for us and how we should live for Him, not just love Him.

Luke 5: 8-11 We know the story of when Jesus started gathering his disciples. He preformed some miracles after He had been teaching out on the water and when they came back to land His first apostles left EVERYthing and followed Him. What do we leave behind to follow Jesus? 

Matthew 25: 31-33 Today I ask a simple question: Are you ready to meet our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ?
