Bethany First Church Of The Nazarene

Can you turn to God when all human possibilities have run out? God often moves outside the realm of our abilities. 

God was faithful in the promises he made to the patriarchs about the coming of the Messiah. He remains faithful to all of his promises.

How can God expect you to be joyful in difficult times?

How are you going to react when people and influences come into your life and try to convince you that your morals and way of life are out of date and irrelevant?

Our beliefs about the gospel must influence our daily lives, but sometimes concerns for our own interests get in the way. What if the concerns of Jesus became what our lives were all about?

God’s plan is for you to be part of his plan to recover what is lost.

For Paul, the most important thing was that Jesus was proclaimed. What do I do if that’s not my top priority?

There are forces that threaten our efforts to share Jesus with others. Fortunately there is a defense for that threat.

Paul wrote a letter to an unlikely collection of people and called them to share the gospel with a united vision.

Your best worship may be to care for those in need and to keep yourself unpolluted by the world.

If life is like a race, what is it in your life that hinders you from running this race well?

When it comes to money and what it can buy, having more does not lead to contentment. Could it be that contentment lies in having less?

What if having less in my life meant more of God? Can I manage my life in such a way to create a deeper intimacy with God?

We all have regrets about choices we’ve made. We can learn from the life of David how to not let our poor choices define us.

When we desire to engage others in talking about Jesus, there are forces that will do everything they can to oppose you.

If Jesus needed his friends in the darkest hours of his life, chances are we do too. 

For all Jesus said and did, he had one purpose – one goal. Then he said, “follow me.”

What does it mean to follow Jesus? The answer is not easy but it is clear.

Even after God has done amazing things in our lives, it is possible to sink into a gray, dull, spiritual rut. But, the wind is blowing and God is calling us beyond the ordinary into the risky life of following him.

The story of Christianity is a story about people investing in other people.
