Laying Down Your Life (Acts 21:13)

May 26, 2023 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Discipleship, dying, Mark 8:34-38
One of the most interesting men of World War II was a high-ranking German officer named Henning von Tresckow. He came from a well-respected family, was obviously successful, and had a bright future in Germany. The war, however, changed everything. Tresckow saw the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime and became a die-hard opponent of

King Asa: An Encouraging Example (1 Kgs 15:9-24)

May 22, 2023 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Discipleship, Failure, heart
In the books of 1 and 2 Kings, a major area of emphasis is God’s blessing His people if they obey Him and cursing them if they don’t. This is true for the various kings as well. There were around forty of them, and most “did evil in the eyes of the Lord.” Only eight

Can I Dance and Still Be Saved?

February 8, 2023 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Assurance, Discipleship, Sin
Recently, I taught a Sunday school class at a Baptist church in the town of Aldama, Mexico. It’s about a four-hour drive south of El Paso, TX. The pastor of the church invited me to speak on whatever topic I wanted. He is a very nice man, but is not Free Grace, and it is

The Young Woman Who Pondered 

December 23, 2022 by Kathryn Wright in Blog - Christmas, Discipleship, Growth, Luke 2, Mary
It’s Christmastime, which means that most of us are once again reading the Biblical accounts of the Lord’s birth. As we think about these accounts, many of us will turn our gaze to Mary, the mother of Jesus. As a general rule, there is an overemphasis and even a glorification of Mary at Christmas. The

Are You on the Inside or Outside When it Comes to the Lord? (Mark 3:31)

November 24, 2022 by Kenneth Yates in Blog - Discipleship, Fellowship, Mark 3:31, Rev 3:20
Then His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him. In Mark 3:31 there is a graphic, but sad picture. Jesus is in a house with His disciples. This includes more than the twelve apostles. There are so many disciples inside the house with the Lord that He can’t

Results Will Vary (Ephesians 5:10,18)

May 9, 2022 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Discipleship, Ephesians, will of God
I often say one of the hardest things about Christian living is not choosing between right and wrong but between good, better, and best. How do you know what is the best course of action? Paul recognized there were no easy answers: for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord;

Watchman Nee on Two Classes of Disciples

December 9, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Discipleship, reigning, rewards, Watchman Nee
Few people have heard of the distinction between eternal life and eternal rewards or the difference that rewards will make in the millennial kingdom. We are trying to change that. Did you know that there are two kinds of Christians? Some will be rewarded, and some will be rebuked. Don’t believe me? Here’s what Jesus

Stir Up Love and Good Works in One Another (Hebrews 10:24)

May 31, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - church life, Discipleship, ecclesiology, one another commands, spirituality
Normal church life is active. Christians should not be passively inhabiting the pews. We live for Christ 24/7, serving Him in all that we do. And that means the churches ought to be actively loving and serving and doing good, often in the face of enormous challenges. But with any activity, people often need encouragement

Confess Your Sins to One Another (James 5:16)

May 21, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - church life, Confession, Discipleship, ecclesiology, James, one another commands, spiritual theology
“Honestly, I didn’t want to join a Bible study,” the young mother admitted to the group. “I didn’t want to be around perfect people with perfect lives…Then I found you weirdos!” I think it is comforting to know you’re in a “hospital for the sick, not a social club for saints.” A “thick” Christian community

When Culture Seeks Revenge, the Church Seeks the Good (1 Thessalonians 5:15)

May 4, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - church life, Discipleship, one another commands
Someone asked me how to cultivate a “culture of grace” in his church. That is precisely the right kind of question to ask. Grace should not only define the saving message (Eph 2:8-9), but the entire Christian life, including church life. Paul said we are no longer under law but under grace (Rom 6:14), and
