When the Bible talks about “hope,” it means something we can depend on with certainty. What is the hope we have because of Christmas, because God came to earth in the flesh?

JAKE STIMPSON | WOMEN IN MINISTRY | SAVED IN CHILDBEARING | CHURCH STRUCTURE | FAMILY | AUTHORITY
What is the Biblical role of women in ministry? Can women be pastors? Can women do evangelism? Can women teach? Should women remain silent at church?
JAKE STIMPSON | STUCK | COMPLACENT | ZEPHANIAH | HAGGAI | JUDGMENT | DISCOURAGED
Zephaniah warned that when Jerusalem fell to Babylon, God would search out all those who had grown complacent and deal with them. Complacency can take hold many different ways, but one of the most insidious is through discouragement and disappointment. So what should you do if you’ve become complacent?
JAKE STIMPSON | JESUS | TOUGH VERSES | HEAR AND DO | FAITH | PRAYER | ASK | RECEIVE
A number of times in the New Testament, Jesus gave the disciples a remarkable promise that whatever they ask, He would do for them, even if they asked Him to move a mountain. Was He serious? Did He really mean that?
JAKE STIMPSON | JESUS | TOUGH VERSES | HEAR AND DO | DECEIVED | FRIENDS | LOVE
Jesus told His disciples that He no longer called them slaves but friends. Despite what we tend to think, being a good slave and being a good friend are very similar in outward actions. But what are the crucial differences? Friends know the master’s heart, with friends there is a mutual surrender, and friends are motivated to serve out of love, not obligation.

JAKE STIMPSON | JESUS | TOUGH VERSES | HEAR AND DO | DECEIVED | SERVANT | SLAVE | SERVING
One of the most difficult things Jesus ever said is in Matthew 20:27-28 – “Whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” What did He mean? Is He serious that we have to lay our lives down for each other as servants, even slaves?
