Children of Promise

Wrapping up his theological argument, Paul concludes this section with one final thrust to bring the Galatians back to the truth of the Gospel. In using the picture of Sarah and Hagar, Paul turns a common attack used by the Judaizers on its head, and decl

The Gifts of the Spirit

As we close our series on the Person of the Holy Spirit, we will end by looking at the gifts of the Spirit. Just as it is the Holy Spirit who empowers us to live the Kingdom Life, it is Him who provides the gifts/abilities to build up His Kingdom. All bel

The Holy Spirit

For the past year, Family Chapel's theme has been "The Kingdom Life", and while we have seen what it looks like to live the Kingdom Life, we have not specifically addressed where the power to live it comes from. If we as believers want to live out the Kin

The Covenant God

In our passage this week, David seeks to secure the favor of God upon his kingship with a plan to build a house for God. Yet, in response to this seemingly noble act, God responds in an unexpected way. God shows us that His favor is not something that we

Careless Worship

In our passage this week, David has just been enthroned as king of Israel, and he makes it his first mission to bring the ark of the LORD to Jerusalem. Though his intent is to worship God, he takes a careless approach in not fully recognizing God's holine

When Trouble Comes

David is on the run from Saul, there are spies all around, and his life is constantly in danger. While in the most trying circumstances he's faced in his life, David does not use this as an excuse to act selfishly or sinfully, but continually shows selfle

The Call to Yield

While David’s life is in danger by the hands of Saul, David’s greatest support comes from an unlikely ally: Jonathan, son of Saul, the heir to the throne. While David is called to wield power for God’s kingdom, Jonathan is given the more difficult c

The Heart God Sees

In this week’s passage, we will be introduced to the man to replace Saul as king: David, son of Jesse. David is chosen as king not because of his outward appearance, but because he has a heart that is pleasing before God. We see David’s heart in the b

Rejecting the King

As we continue through the narrative of Samuel, we will see Israel’s rebellion in demanding a king for themselves. By doing so, they are rejecting God as their king. In the same way, we too find ourselves rejecting God as King when we place our trust in

The Authority of the King

As we close our series through the Sermon on the Mount this week, we will be directed to the important truth that the entire sermon is not merely about principles or rules to follow, but rather about a Person - Jesus Christ our King. True believers are th

Removing a Critical Spirit

As we continue to journey through the Sermon on the Mount, we see in our passage that Jesus clearly lays out the right attitude of the Kingdom citizen: "judge not". While this does not mean that Christians ought to never make any judgments ever (we are co

Salt and Light

As we continue our series through the Sermon on the Mount, we will see that life in the Kingdom (the blessed life) is not meant to be lived out in isolation or in self-interest, but it is a life that is visibly different than the world's. Living obedientl

True Confidence

Our passage is on Philippians 3:1-11. Here, Paul begins a new section, and talks to the church about the issue of false Jewish teachers who are advocating circumcision of the flesh as a requirement to be accepted as God’s people. We will see through Pau

To Live is Christ

In our passage, we see that though Paul is still in prison, he is supremely confident of his deliverance. While many today may assume the deliverance he speaks of is freedom from prison, we see that true deliverance in Paul's eyes is the ability to live h

The Lion’s Den

In the final sermon in our Daniel series, we see that we are often placed in situations where we must chose between following God and following the ways of the world. There is opposition in the path of obeying God. What do we do when these opposing forces

Wisdom and Friendship

We'll be continuing our journey of applying wisdom to different topics of life, and this week's topic is Friendship. We will see that friendship is a gift which has been given by God to be a blessing to others. The fool sees friendship as a means of gain

The Way of Wisdom

Life is full of choices where the answer is unclear, with multiple decisions that all seem morally acceptable. How do we make sense of these moments in our lives and make decisions that not only honor God but lead to fruitfulness? The Proverbs show us tha

It is Good to be Near God

There are moments in the Christian life where our faith is shaken. There are times we wonder, “Is following after God really worth it?”, especially when it seems that those who do not follow after God are enjoying life so much more. How do we stand fi
