In the Bible, Peter says, be holy in all you do. What does that mean to be holy? What does he mean? Does he mean we are to isolate ourself from the world...not to be contaminated? Does that mean we can just people who aren't as holy as us? Join us this morning as we look at 3 Biblical truths concerning holiness. So grab your notebook and Bible and join us at we look to God's Word to answer this question. We hope you are blessed by this study!

What do we do when someone hurts us? Forgiveness is one of the clearest commands of Jesus and sometimes one of the hardest to live out.

This past Sunday, we looked at three truths about Biblical forgiveness: Forgiveness lifts the burden. Forgiveness faces the wrong. Forgiveness releases the debt.

When we are hurt, it is easy to begin keeping an account: They owe me an apology. They owe me an explanation. They need to make this right.

Biblical forgiveness releases our personal claim to vengeance and places the account into God's hands.

We forgive because we remember how much we have been forgiven. Forgive as the Lord forgave you – Colossians 3:13. Forgiveness doesn't change what happened in the past. Forgiveness changes how much power what happened has over us.

Questions to reflect on this week…
· What are you carrying? Is there a hurt, betrayal, conversation, or offense that I continue to replay in my mind?
· Has something that happened to you in the past been given too much power over your present?
· Is there someone that you need to lovingly confront rather than avoid, gossip about, or retaliate against?
· Are you a score keeper? Do I mentally keep a record of everything someone has done wrong to me?
· How does remembering what Jesus has forgiven in my own life change the way I view the person who hurt me?
· Is there an offense that you need to lay down before God today?

There are times in life where we know exactly how to respond. Then there are times in life, where the response isn't so obvious. What do we do when someone offends us? How does God expect us to respond? Grab your notebook and Bible and join us at we look to God's Word to answer this question. We hope you are blessed by this study!

This past Sunday, we looked at one of the most foundational truths found within Scripture, the grace of God. Grace is more than simply unmerited favor. Biblical grace is God’s favor freely extended toward us and God’s favor at work within us.

Grace begins with God, is revealed fully through Jesus, and does more than forgive our past – it transforms the way we live. Biblical grace never gives us permission to remain in sin. The grace that saves us also teaches and empowers us to live differently. We don't obey God to earn His grace or salvation. We obey because we have received His grace. The question is: Has the grace you have received changed the way you live?

Questions to reflect on this week:
· Are there areas where you are still trying to earn what God has already offered you through Jesus?
· Is there something in your life you have been asking grace to excuse that God wants His grace to change?
· Where can you see evidence that God's grace is transforming the way you speak, think, respond, or treat others?
· If obedience is a response to grace rather than a way of earning grace, what is one area where God is asking you to obey Him more faithfully this week?

This morning, we will be exploring another one of life’s most foundational questions: if Yahweh is holy, and humanity is sinful, how can sinful people ever come close to a holy God? The answer to this question, throughout Scripture, is God's Grace. In our Christian culture, grace is often defined as unmerited favor. That's not a wrong definition, but is that all there is to grace...God’s unmerited favor? What if there’s more to grace than this definition we’ve always been given? Grab your notebook and Bible and join us at we look to God's Word to answer this question. We hope you are blessed by this study!

What a Sunday! We worshipped, we celebrated, and we witnessed new life in Christ through baptism!

Who is God? There is a difference between believing God exists and truly knowing the God who has revealed Himself in Scripture. When Moses asked God, Show me Your glory, God revealed to Moses His character: compassionate, merciful, slow to anger, abounding in hesed—steadfast, faithful love—while remaining holy and just. If we want to see the clearest revelation of who God is, we are to look to Jesus. He showed us the compassion, mercy, holiness, faithfulness, and love of the Father.

We were created in God’s image to reflect Him. So, the question isn’t simply, do I know who God is? but is the God I know becoming visible through the way I live? If you missed this week's message or you want to watch it again, click here at the link: https://www.youtube.com/live/NYl0Uqts12A

Questions to reflect on this week…
· What has shaped your understanding of God most—Scripture, your experiences, other people, or culture?
· Which aspect of God's character…compassion, mercy, holiness, faithfulness, justice, or love…do you need to understand more deeply?
· When you fail, do you tend to run from God in shame or return to Him in repentance? Why?
· If others looked at your life, which characteristics of God would they see and which ones does the Holy Spirit need to develop more deeply in you?
