Christ–Our Hope
(Philippians 3:15-21) Philippians 3 ends on a hopeful note. When Christ has His proper place in the home, everything else will be in the right place. Invite Him into your home every day. He alone is our hope and the reason our families have hope for the future! (06156220701)

Christ–Our Pursuit
(Philippians 3:8-14) Much of what families pursue today is good, but not best. Paul had dedicated his life to God, pursued higher education, and accomplished much, yet he counted all this as “dung” compared to the value of pursuing Christ. Our homes will be truly Christian when Christ becomes our greatest pursuit! (06155220630)

Christ–Our Confidence
(Philippians 3:4-7) The apostle Paul had the equivalent of three PhD’s, and yet he said he counted it all as loss. When we put our confidence in the other members of our family to be all that we need or seek, we will always be disappointed, regardless of how much they have to offer. Only Christ is worthy of our total confidence. (06154220629)
6/29/2022 • 10 minutes, 10 seconds
Christ–Our Joy
(Philippians 3:1-3) It may be possible to have a happy home without Christ because happiness comes from what happens outside of us. But joy comes from within, and true joy can only be found in Christ. As we learn of Christ, our Joy, we will see how truth, warnings, and worship all play a part in a joy-filled home. (06153220628)

What Makes a Home Christian?
(Philippians 3:1, 21) The essence of a Christian home is the presence of Christ. A home may be moral or religious or even somewhat sterile due to an abundance of rules, but without Christ it is not a Christian home. In our next few broadcasts, we’ll study Christ and seek to give Him the preeminence in our homes. (06152220627)

Learning to Think Differently
(Philippians 2:17-30) Take a look at yourself – are you willing to sacrifice? Are you willing to serve? Are you willing to supply the needs of those around you? The men Paul speaks of in Philippians chapter 2 had embraced the mind of Christ and were demonstrating it in these ways. So can we! (06150220624)
6/24/2022 • 10 minutes, 13 seconds
The Mind of Christ
(Philippians 2:3-8) True peace, joy, and beauty come to our homes when we learn to think like Christ and therefore begin to live like Christ.

What will it look like to begin developing the mind of Christ in your family? (06149220623)
6/23/2022 • 10 minutes, 13 seconds
A Marriage Mindset
(Philippians 2:1-2) Having the mind of Christ in our families will result in charity and unity. As we begin to dive into Philippians chapter 2, we discover that the mind of Christ is more relational than informational, more related to the heart than the intellect. As we learn to think like Christ, our actions will begin to look like Christ! (06148220622)

How to Pray for Your Family
(Philippians 1:9-11) Often, we go through a list of names when we pray for our family, but today we will consider a list of needs about which to pray. Following the pattern displayed in Philippians 1:9-11 we will learn to ask God for growth – in four different directions! (06147220621)
6/21/2022 • 10 minutes, 8 seconds
Wanting More for Your Home
(Philippians 1:9-11) We live in the “more generation.” It seems everyone wants more house, more money, more vacation time, and even more than all of that. But what would the prayer list for your family reveal that you want more of? Let’s cease to be satisfied with where we are spiritually and ask God to make us abound more and more! (06146220620)

6/17/2022 • 10 minutes, 16 seconds
The “Gospel Family,” Part 2
(Philippians 1:2-6) When we look inside a Christian home, we should see family members thanking God for one another, praying for one another, sharing their gospel testimony with one another, and talking to one another about spiritual things.

6/15/2022 • 10 minutes, 15 seconds
First at Home
(Philippians 1:1-5) When teaching and preaching on the family, the most commonly used books of the Bible are probably Ephesians and Colossians. But right between these two is the small book of Philippians. It doesn’t directly mention the home, yet it is full principles that will bring joy to any home. Let’s ask God to do a great work in our homes! (06141220614)

Taking a Trip to Philippi
(Acts 16:9-33) In our first Enjoying the Journey series, we studied the book of Philippians. Over the next few weeks, we will study this book again and explore how it applies to families. Let’s begin with a “road trip to Philippi" where we'll see Lydia and her family. (06140220613)

FINISHED!
(John 19:30) When Jesus cried, “It is finished,” all of Heaven heard it and rejoiced. All of Hell heard it and trembled. All of earth must hear it and believe.

6/10/2022 • 10 minutes, 8 seconds
Paid In Full
(John 19:30) When Jesus cried from the cross, “It is finished,” He was literally saying “Paid in full!” The debt of sin has been canceled. There is no further work required to pay the price of salvation. Jesus paid it all! Trust Him today! (06137220609)
6/9/2022 • 10 minutes, 8 seconds
One Word Changes Everything
(Luke 23:43) One word from Jesus changes everything! In our final look at Jesus’ use of the word “today,” we find that it is a word of great expectancy. It speaks to us about God and His present work, about our lives and fleeting opportunities, and about our eternity, which is greater than we can imagine if we turn to Christ by faith. (06136220608)
6/8/2022 • 10 minutes, 1 second
Don’t Miss Your Moment
(Luke 23:39-43) “Today” is a word of expediency, as well as opportunity. God has given each of us an opportunity to make the most of today. In this study we will consider right priorities as we again look to Jesus on His most difficult day. (06135220607)
6/7/2022 • 10 minutes, 8 seconds
Today
(Luke 23:32-33, 39-43) When the thief on the cross cried out to Jesus to save him, our Lord promised that he would be with Him in Paradise that very day.

Put It All In His Hands

6/3/2022 • 10 minutes, 4 seconds
Why???
(Matthew 27:46) Consider that even Jesus, in His darkest hour, cried out to God, “Why?” When you find yourself enduring dark days or feeling distant from the Lord, bring all your emotion, hurt, and brokenness to God. And remember that He is at work. The greatest transaction that ever took place happened in the dark when it seemed that Heaven was silent. (06131220602)
6/2/2022 • 9 minutes, 58 seconds
Moving from Why to What
(Matthew 27:46) Both the darkest and final moment of Jesus’ life are examined in our study today.

The Cry that Never Stops
(Luke 23:34) Our Lord’s forgiveness is immediate and perpetual. It restored the thief on the cross, and to this day remains powerful and available.

(06129220531)
5/31/2022 • 9 minutes, 54 seconds
Forgive!
(Luke 23:34) This cry from the cross is not only a prayer, but also a pardon. If anyone had a reason to bring judgment, it was our Lord. Yet He cries, “Father, forgive them!” Today we’ll grow in our understanding of forgiveness and be challenged to forgive like Jesus. (06128220530)

The Cry of His Humanity

5/25/2022 • 9 minutes, 56 seconds
No Answer
(John 19:1-9) The cries we hear first near the cross of Christ were not from Jesus Himself. Pilate’s bewildered “I find no fault in Him,” the Jews angry “Crucify Him!” the Roman soldiers’ mockery… yet Jesus silently suffers in humility and surrender to the will of His Father. What love is displayed in the silence of Jesus! (06123220524)

Seeking God’s Face
(Psalm 119:129-136) So often we seek God’s hand, but not His face. We look for something from Him but fail to truly seek Him.

12/23/2021 • 10 minutes, 7 seconds
Jesus Came to Fulfill
(Matthew 5:17-18) It would be impossible for Jesus to save us had He not fulfilled ALL the law. Likewise, it is impossible for us to fully know Him without studying all of Scripture. His story does not begin at Bethlehem. Today we see that Jesus came to fulfill divine prophecies. (05516211222)

Spiritual Weapons for Spiritual Conflict
(Ephesians 6:10-17) With every blessing comes a battle. With every good thing there may come a conflict. That's not unusual in a world filled with spiritual warfare.

The Filling of the Spirit
(Ephesians 5:18-21) Singing, gratitude, and submission are three marks of a Spirit-filled life. Are you at this moment a Spirit-filled believer?

Christ and His Church
(Ephesians 4:7-16) We all need the Lord, but God has made it so that we also need one another. We are dependent on Christ and we are interdependent on each other.

12/9/2021 • 10 minutes, 3 seconds
Divine Unity
(Ephesians 4:1-6) Someone once said that churches are more like goat pens than sheepfolds because the people are always butting heads. It's not supposed to be that way!

12/8/2021 • 10 minutes, 25 seconds
Divine Power
(Ephesians 3:20-21) God's power is able to do the impossible. It's abundant enough to accomplish more than we can ask or think. It's aim or purpose is to reveal the glory of God.

12/7/2021 • 10 minutes, 21 seconds
Divine Love
(Ephesians 3:14-19) If you're going to know, understand, and appreciate Divine Love, you have to know God. In a world of hatred and cheap substitutes for love, the only way to know the genuine article is to know God himself and allow the God of love to work in you. God's love touches every part of life.

Divine Wisdom
(Ephesians 3:1-13) Can you think of anything we need more in these times than God's wisdom? Sin, at it's core, is ignorance of God.

Blessings, Blessings, Blessings
(Ephesians 1:3-14) This is our second day looking at God's "run on sentence." Why would He use this particular grammatical structure? Perhaps it's because we cannot fully describe the depths of what we have as members of the family of God. They are without end. In this single sentence, we learn of the spiritual blessings received from the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (05498211126)
11/26/2021 • 10 minutes, 8 seconds
God‘s Run-On Sentence
(Ephesians 1:3-14) In Paul's language, Ephesians 1:3-14 is one continuous long sentence.

Bless the Blesser

11/24/2021 • 10 minutes
What A Book!
(Ephesians 1:1-3) God doesn't want us to live empty! He wants us to live a full, overflowing, abundant life.

When we recognize our spiritual blessings in Christ we can see the fullness of God, get help for our home, and be empowered to have victory in spiritual battles! (05495211123)
11/23/2021 • 10 minutes
All Spiritual Blessings
(Ephesians 1:1-3) When we think of the blessings of God, our minds often journey to tangible or temporal things. However, the greatest blessings are spiritual blessings.

One Thing I Know
There is much in life we do not know or understand, but God has a purpose in all things and He is at work in our lives. The blind man didn't know how or why Jesus healed Him, but he joyfully declared the one thing he did know. And that's what we must do! The one thing we know, that Christ has saved us, is the one thing we must make known.

One Thing Is Needful

One Answer
Authority. All areas of life require it, and we are called to make Christ the Authority of our lives. When He is not in control, we experience chaos and conflict. Are you courageous enough to ask God to reveal to you the one area where He is not on the throne of your life?
11/12/2021 • 10 minutes, 8 seconds

From Lost to Saved
