Spirituality and holiness is not a complicated issue. We make decisions on a daily basis that either make us spiritual and holy or make us worldly and ungodly. Moses is a great example for us in how to approach our decisions. He overcame temptations and made sacrifices to do what was right.

Sometimes we painfully watch as people who once served God faithfully fall away from Him. It is rarely a sudden thing, but often the final departure still takes us by surprise. If we want to prevent our own apostasy or that in others, or if we want to help people come back who have fallen away, we need to understand why it happens. This series of lessons looks to answer that question

There is something special about home. Going home and thinking simply warms the heart. Spiritually speaking, home means salvation, fellowship with God, heaven, a spiritual family, and so much more. Sadly, we sometimes choose to leave home and wander lost in the world. The parable of the prodigal son reminds us of our condition when this happens, shows us we can go home, and shows us the way home. It's so amazing to think that after all of the wandering we do, we have a Father waiting to receive and restore us to Himself.

One of the most helpless feelings you can have is to be truly lost. This is especially true when a person is lost spiritual. This sermon looks at the parables of Jesus in Luke 15 and shows what it means to be lost and what it means to be found. In it we see God's love for us even when we wander away from Him.

Heaven is a prepared place for prepared people. If we want to go to Heaven, we have to live now like we belong there. How does a person's hope and expectation of Heaven impact their lives on a daily basis? A person does not go to heaven by accident, it is the result of a life focused on Heaven and lived within the grace of God.

All Christians will have face to persecution in their lives. Sometimes it is severe and sometimes it is more subtle. How do we handle it? The answer is to focus on Christ during these times. Peter gives us some direction and hope during such a time. As we suffer we can look to Christ as our example knowing He suffered for righteousness as well.

Some of the most rewarding and joyful times in a person's life come from being a parent. At the same time, some of the most frustrating and difficult times in a person's life can come from being a parent. Solomon was given incredible wisdom by God to rule the nation of Israel. He not only used this wisdom to be king, but he also used this wisdom to write some very practical and powerful proverbs on parenting. These words are not outdated... they still work today when put into practice.

We all are building something every day. We are building in our own lives, the lives of others, and the life of the local church of which we are a part. Nehemiah shows us a great example of what a man of God can do when he trusts in God and does what he can in serving the Lord and others. He didn't have super powers and he didn't work miracles. He simply worked hard for the Lord and inspired others along the way.

One of the biggest problems we struggle with in our faith is complacency. We all face times when we grow lukewarm in our service to God and love for Him. This is something that affects seasoned and mature Christians... no one is immune. As Jesus spoke to the church at Laodicea, we learn that one of the ways to battle this problem is to return to an appreciation of the awesome nature of the Lord. This lesson is a journey through the Bible looking at some of the awesome descriptions of our God. It's hard to be complacent when you're standing in awe of God!
