We conclude the "You Asked for It" series by looking at the most popular request, the End Times. In this study, we will try to set aside the sensationalism that confronts us so often, and deal with the facts of Scripture. There are some things that we know for sure (all Christians basically agree on these things). Then, there are lots of theories. We will take a few minutes to talk about some theories, but we will spend our time on the things that we can know for sure!
We learn about the Lord's Supper and we will participate in the bread and cup. There were many questions about communion: Who should take it? How often should we take it? Are the elements of bread and cup themselves holy? etc. In this study, we will try to answer those questions and, at the same time, prepare our hearts for sharing in the communion of the bread and the cup.
We continue the study of the topics in the You Asked for It series, by looking at a common request: fear. Why do we fear if we truly believe that God has everything under control? How do we start living without fear? How do we help our children avoid a lifestyle of fear? Today we will answer those questions and more as we discuss this very common theme in Scriptures.
We continue through the topics that were chosen by the congregation, and look at sexuality. There were many questions around this topic, and in this study, we will try to have some basic understanding about God's plan for physical relationships. Probably this temptation, more than any other, is thrown at us constantly. Today we will be reminded of God's desire for purity.
We begin a five-week sermon series that you have chosen. Last spring, I asked for topics that you would like to hear preached. You responded with hundreds of ideas and I chose the five most-frequently-asked. In this first study, we look at how to read and study our Bibles. Many asked how I prepare a message, and/or how they should read and study on their own. This should be interesting!
