February 2022 Reflections
In February we finished the first 8 chapters of Matthew’s gospel, which completed the Sermon on the Mount. After 4 weeks on the Old Testament book of Habakkuk, we’ll start on new series on 1&2 Thessalonians, before returning to Matthew.
Tell me more about Jesus
If you have an interest in learning more about who Jesus was, why he came or what he taught, here are some places to start.
01 Habakkuk Introduction
The Old Testament book of Habakkuk speaks to two of the most fundamental questions of the Christian faith: 1) How long will God let His people suffer? and 2) Why should we keep believing Him if we’re not spared the tragedies of life?
Habakkuk: Faith Under Fire
Habakkuk teaches us how to move from worry to worship and from fear to faith no matter what our circumstances.
Why is life so hard?
Why is life so hard? The Bible has a lot to say about suffering and trials and the problem of evil. Here are a few places to start exploring answers from Scripture.
How do I know I’m saved?
One of the most crucial questions we all face is: how do I know I am saved? How do I know that I won’t walk away from God one day? Here are a few passages that will answer that question.
