  1. Revaluation: The Greatest Revelation

    4d ago

    Revaluation: The Greatest Revelation

    We all need times when we press pause and reevaluate our life–literally, we need to re-value the things we prize: the way we invest our time and energy in pursuit of our deepest dreams. As we enter the summer season at Tab, the last book of the Bible, Revelation, will help us reevaluate our lives in light of the ultimate realities of heaven and eternity. In this 10-week sermon series, we will connect the lessons from Revelation to our 10 core values as a church as we ask the Holy Spirit to help us revalue the things in our lives for His glory.

    Vision Sunday: Sharing God's Story by Shaping the Home

    It's a tremendous thought to consider that God has a will for our lives! All that our lives are comprised of! His will isn't limited to these "big decisions" of life. His will permeates all our lives, even in the daily moments. His will extends from the church pew to the dining table. There is no greater joy than walking with the Lord and experiencing His good, pleasing, and perfect will. God's story can shape your home. God knows how to write a better story than we can even imagine. May His will be done in our homes even as it is in heaven.

    Dear Me: Matter's End

    Solomon was right. Life under the sun without Christ is futile. But life isn't limited to life under the sun. Jesus won the victory of God through the cross, and His kingdom will one day reclaim every square inch of this futile world, even as it ushers in a new heaven and earth.

    Dear Me: Riddle Me This

    Solomon hasn't said it because he didn't have the words, but he's reminded us of our need for God's grace. His unmerited and unearned favor over our lives. There is a riddle to life that will remain. Why do bad things happen to good people? I don't know because I'm not sure how we qualify "good." I know that I tend to fluctuate between self-righteousness and wickedness. Am I a good person? I'm not sure. But I am sure that I'm God's person, because He's covered me with His grace. I want to live for Him with the Holy Spirit's help, because He is good, and the eternal life I will spend with Him reminds me that life isn't limited to life under the sun. I trust Him to work all things for His glory and my good.

    Dear Me: Where's Your Quarter?

    If you have a quarter friend, call them this week and tell them thank you for being your friend. Set up a time to do something. Husbands, give your wives a blessing to foster friendships. Step up this week to give your wife margin to spend time with a friend. She needs that time to be encouraged by another woman. Let's be especially mindful of mothers whose husbands are deployed or single parents. They have no margin, so let's be a church that helps to give them margin. Where's your quarter? Friendship matters. It's normal that friendship doesn't come naturally because it's an investment. There is a cost, but there is a very good reward for the effort!

    Dear Me: The Madness of Time

    I'm not sure what area of our lives God's timing might be causing frustration, but God has given us the perfect example of making everything beautiful in its time. He's demonstrated this in our eternal salvation! If God has done this for us in Christ, why would we not turn to Him in faith in all our activities under the sun? We can be frustrated by our limitations, or we can turn by faith to the one who makes all things appropriate or beautiful in its time.

  7. Dear Me: If You Want It- Get It!

    Dear Me: If You Want It- Get It!

    Solomon's downfall wasn't in his experience of pleasure. That's what can make life so ironic. God took pleasure in His creation! I don't know where we get the idea that following Jesus is anti-pleasure. No! It's when we pursue pleasure for our own glory that it becomes problematic. Go back and read Ecclesiastes 2 and see who is at the center of Solomon's world. He did not trust in the goodness of God. Solomon pursued pleasure in rebellion against God! Take it from the memoir of King Solomon, the well of pleasure eventually dries up. There is only one well of living water and it's found in a life of pursuing Jesus. God loves you and desires to give you the good life forever! The good life isn't found in an abundance of "things" or in the denial of "things." The good life comes from seeing God in all things!

  8. Dear Me: Worthless Wisdom

    Apr 20

    Dear Me: Worthless Wisdom

    Physical water will quench temporarily, but the living water of Jesus satisfies forever. Solomon tried to find life in every well that this world had to offer. He concluded that it is a futile pursuit. So, what well are you running to today? There is only one with living water. That is a life pledged to Jesus, abiding in His presence through the Holy Spirit, and expressing itself in love toward God and people. Earthly wisdom is worthless, but that is godly wisdom, and godly wisdom is priceless.
