    Matthew 14:13-31
     
    One of the ways that God grows our faith is to call us to something that we are unqualified to do.

    1 Thessalonians 2:8
     
    The Christian life is not primarily about knowing the right things. It is about living in Christ. In fact, many Christians know far more than they practice. So growing in discipleship is more like an apprenticeship to Jesus than it is about mastering a body of knowledge. The gift of small groups that focus on transformation is that they give us an environment where we can grow in trust and focus on supporting each other in our efforts to become increasingly faithful Christians who are growing in love of God and neighbor.

    Hebrews 10:24-25, 1 Samuel 23:16
     
    God uses our relationships with brothers and sisters in Christ to grow our faith in Him. Through those relationships, we encourage one another and see God at work in each other's lives. This is why small group communities are so important in our faith.

    Series: (All)
    John 4:23, Genesis 4:1-16; Hebrews 11:4, 6
     
    Worshipping God is something that is an expression of our faith in Him, and when our worship is healthy and rightly focused, it not only springs from our faith in Jesus, it strengthens our faith in Him.

    Romans 1:17, Mark 4:35-41 Mark 6:1-6, Matthew 8:5-10
     
    In the bible, spiritual maturity is the same as strong or mature faith. In fact, the only times that Jesus is recorded as being amazed, it was because of someone's faith, or because of someone's lack of it. So when we talk about growing people in discipleship, we're talking about growing their faith in Jesus.

    Nehemiah 6:1-4
     
    Basically I'm telling the story of Nehemiah, and sharing the notable line when his adversaries try to get him to leave and meet with them, "I am doing a great work and cannot come down." God has something for each of us that is too important to be distracted by.

    Series: (All)
    Mark 16:1-8 and Acts 17:22–31
     
    At one time or another, we’ve all wondered about God, whether God is really close to us or cares about us. When Paul addresses people in Athens about the God they didn't know anything about, he tells them about how the resurrection of Jesus reveals God's love and plan for us, and how it all centers on a man, Jesus Christ.
