    When Work Is Hard - Everyday Faith | Week 3 | Tim Birdwell

    Work is good, but because of sin, work is also broken. So what do we do when our job is exhausting, frustrating, or just plain hard? In this week of Everyday Faith, we look at Ecclesiastes 2 and the rest of Scripture to ask three questions: Why is work hard? How do I navigate it? And should I stay or go? Jesus doesn’t just meet us on Sunday. He transforms how we work on Monday. Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona. We desire to engage culture, uphold truth and love people. In a world where life can be heavy and confusing, we want to cover the hard truths - with grace. This is difficulty and messy - and so are we - but the love of Jesus meets us in our mess. Our rhythm is to gather to worship on Sunday and then scatter during the week to love, live and lead together. We are imperfect people moved by the perfect love of Jesus. Come as you are. Experience His love. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Website https://phoenixbiblechurch.com Connect with Phoenix Bible Church https://phoenixbiblechurch.com/connect Social Media https://instagram.com/phxbiblechurch https://www.facebook.com/phxbiblechurch Chapters: 00:00 Work Is Hard 05:16 What Happens When You Hate Your Job? 05:50 Ecclesiastes 2 06:31 Why Is Work Hard? 12:08 How Do I Navigate Hard Work? 14:04 Involve God in Your Work 19:55 Joseph: Working for God 24:29 Godly Perspective + Principles 27:30 Should I Stay or Go? 31:40 Don't Leave Too Soon 36:05 Jesus Redeems Our Work 36:56 Closing Prayer

    How do you know God’s will for your work? Should you stay, leave, take the promotion, or start something new?Romans 12 shows us an important sequence: surrender, transformation, then discernment. God is more concerned with who you are becoming than simply where you are going.In this message, we look at God’s revealed will and five practical questions that can help us navigate our work with wisdom, community, obedience, and trust in Jesus.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

    Why Work? - Everyday Faith | Week 1 | Tim Birdwell

    Whether you love your job, hate your job, or find your identity in your job, God has a bigger vision for your work. In the opening message of Everyday Faith, Pastor Tim explores what Scripture says about the purpose of work. Work existed before sin entered the world. It reveals the character of our creative God, serves the people around us, and can become a platform for the love of Jesus. Your classroom, office, home, jobsite, or ordinary daily routine is not separate from your faith. God has placed you there for His glory, the good of others, and the mission of His Kingdom.

    Who Can You Trust? - Soul Care | Week 5 | A.C. Caswell

    Every day, voices compete for our attention and trust. Politicians, business leaders, influencers, and even our own desires promise to lead us toward the good life. But Psalm 146 reminds us that every human leader is temporary. Their plans perish, and none of them can ultimately save us. God is different. He created all things, keeps His promises, cares for the vulnerable, and reigns forever. Through Jesus, the King of Kings came close to us, conquered sin and death, and invited us into a Kingdom that will never end. In this message from Psalm 146, discover what it means to stop carrying the weight of saving yourself and begin following the King who reigns forever.

    Courage in the Current - Soul Care | Week 4 | Jeff Gokee

    One moment, life can feel like a sturdy bridge—safe, predictable, and secure. The next, it can feel like an uncontrollable river carrying us toward the unknown. In Psalm 27, David shows us how to respond in both seasons. We do not find courage by gaining control, ignoring our pain, or pretending we have no questions. Courage grows when we remember that the Lord is our light, our salvation, and our stronghold. He is present on the bridge, in the river, and everywhere in between. In this message, we discover how intimacy with God confronts fear, why honest petitions deepen our relationship with Him, and what it means to wait for the Lord with strength and courage.

    More Won't Satisfy - Soul Care | Week 3 | A.C. Caswell

    We often look to success, relationships, experiences, and changing circumstances to satisfy the deepest longings of our souls. But even the best things in life eventually leave us wanting more. In Psalm 63, David is fleeing for his life, yet his greatest desire is not simply for his circumstances to change. He thirsts for God. Through passionate prayer, public and private praise, and persistent trust, David shows us where lasting satisfaction is truly found. Lasting satisfaction is not found in our circumstances, but in our Savior. Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

    What Are You Worshiping? - Soul Care | Week 2 | Braden Hildebrand

    Worship is not something I turn on and off.Psalm 95 reminds me that I am always pouring myself out somewhere.

    How Is Your Soul? - Soul Care | Week 1 | Tim Birdwell

    How is your soul? In Psalm 46, God does not call us to ignore the chaos around us or pretend everything is fine. He calls us to be still and know that He is God. True soul care is not simply slowing down, taking a break, or escaping the noise. It is surrendering our whole soul to the God who is our refuge, strength, fortress, and present help in trouble. This week, Pastor Tim walks through Psalm 46 and reminds us that the war within our soul is not too much for the God who makes wars cease. In the middle of chaos, God is powerful. God is present. God is with us. Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona. We desire to engage culture, uphold truth and love people.
