Most of us want to know what God's perfect will is for our lives, but is it possible to really know? If so, how do we position ourselves in a place where we are able to discern His will? Romans 12 gives us some very practical steps that we need to take to be able to test and approve of God's good, pleasing and perfect will for our lives.

Is it possible to know God's perfect will for my life? Often we are in angst over the questions like: What job Should I take? What person should I marry? What school should i go to? Where should I live? While all of these are good questions, there are some practical steps that we need to take before we can get the answers to these questions. In this study we will talk about seven practical steps that we need to take to discover God's will for our lives.

Israel is a people loved by God. They were a nation that was cultivated by the loving care of God. As a gardener tends to an Olive tree so too God tended to the nation Israel. But as time went on, because of unbelief the Nation stopped producing fruit. Then God pruned the tree and grafted in some wild Olive shoots. If you are a Gentile you are the wild shoot that has been grafted into the Olive tree. So, is there no hope for Israel? As we will see today- God still has a plan for them. He is able to graft them in again if they do not persist in unbelief. You may ask, "Is there no hope for my unbelieving family or friends who seemed so hardened to the gospel? Yes- there is always hope!

If you don't have a heart for the lost, why not? Are you content with that? For those of us who want to reach people with the message of Jesus love, how do we do it? What does it look like? With all of the people in the world that need Jesus- it can get overwhelming and sometimes discouraging. Join us this week as we pull out some practical principles from Romans 10 on reaching the lost.

What road are you on? Are you on the road to heaven or hell? If you were to die today and stand before God and God asked you why he should let you into heaven- what would you say? There are two roads- works and faith. Join us this week as we ask these foundational questions: What's the right road and why? Where does each road lead me? How do I know if I'm on the right road? If I'm on the right road, what is my responsibility to those who are on the wrong road?

Are there people in your life that you long to see saved? Maybe you have tried in the past to reach them but they seem so unreachable. The Apostle Paul has some stretching and at the same time comforting truths to help us reach the unreachable. Sometimes the people that seem the most reachable are often times the most unreachable and sometimes the most unreachable are often times the most reachable.

Are there people in your life that seem unreachable? Is there anything we can do to save them? What lengths would you be willing to go to in order that people may be saved from hell? Does your heart break over the lost world? Join us this week as we start a new study through Romans 9, 10 & 11 called "Reaching the Unreachable"

Fact or feeling? Sometimes it may feel like God is not on our side. Sometimes we may question if God is really for us, but what our feelings tell us are often times different than what the facts tell us. Join us for this message as we remember what the facts are as we look at the "we knows" of Romans 1-8. The fact is- God is for us!

God is for us, but the question arises- If God is all loving and all-powerful, then why does God allow evil and suffering to exist? If He is all powerful shouldn't He be able to stop it and if He doesn't stop it, then how can we be sure that God really loves us? These are deep philosophical questions that we will attempt to scratch the surface of. Paul wants us to know one thing for sure- This all-powerful God does love us!

Do you still wonder how God feels about you? Are you convinced of His love toward you? If we are not convinced of the fact that God is for us then when things come against us we will have a tenancy to react in 4 main ways. Fright-Fight-Freeze-Flee. Join us this week as we look at some very practical truths that will change our lives forever!
