Slavery or Freedom?
Here we are in what used to be “The Land of the Free and the home of the Brave.” We used to be brave. And when I was growing up, this used to be a free country. It isn’t any more. Freedom is decreasing. And the momentum for its demise is increasing. Inexorably increasing, with seeming inevitability.

Searching for Justice (Psalm 10)
Life is filled with all sorts of landscape. An all terrain faith is equally balanced for the breathtaking view from the mountaintop and the confusing trek though a cold, dark valley. It provides adequate support for walking in rough, rocky stretches and stability for the slippery spots. In this exploration of the Psalms, we will see that no matter where you find yourself in life there is an appropriate faith response to your life situation. Are you ready for the hike?

That Lying Devil
There are many people enslaved by urges, habits, and sins that they seem powerless to overcome. Many have in fact given up. The good news is that there is hope for even the most seriously bound, but we must learn to recognize the enemy’s tactics. Too often we do not begin to fight until the battle is over. Discover how to engage Satan much earlier and much more effectively. Key Versus: Rom 7:15-17, Gen 2:16-17, Gen 3, John 8:44, John 8:31, Eph 6:11, 1Cor 6:18-20, 1Cor 15:33

Moses: Freedom From Slavery (Exodus 3:1-14)
The life of Moses is peppered with one supernatural act after the other. He was God’s man to lead God’s people out of slavery and into freedom. However, because Moses failed to honor God’s holiness and compassion he wasn’t able to enjoy the freedom that God wanted him to enjoy.

Slavery off of the Narrow Road
Some of the people in the church at Galatia were leaving behind the gospel of grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone and were turning back to the idea that they could put themselves right with God through obeying certain rules and rituals. Paul confronts them and reminds them that going back to rule-keeping puts us back into slavery to the rules. We all end up as slave to that which we think we need for our acceptance or our happiness, whether we look to gratify our own selfish impulses that always cry out for more or the expectations of other people. Instead of such slavery God has extended to us acceptance and adoption into the family, and since this was bought by Jesus Himself on the cross, we are no longer indebted but are free people who live in His grace.

Hooked - Leaving Addiction for Healing
As one author put it, "There's a lot more to being well than just not being sick." God isn't just trying to end patterns and self-destructive and other-destructive behaviors in our lives. He's out to make us whole again.
