Ever wonder what we do and why we do it? Take a listen!

Now that we are at the end of camp, it is time to make commitments. What will you do with what you heard from the Lord?

We must learn how to endure hardness and maintain focus if we are going to wage a good warfare.

Part 2 of the Father Factor/Fracture message...

If we are going to join in the fight there will always be undercurrent heart issues that we need to deal with to move forward. The Father Factor/Fracture is one of those issues. This is the first of two messages on this topic.

After salvation and surrender comes learning how to submit... We will be able to get into the fight if we learn how to have an interactive relationship with God, submit to God, and serve God. All these things Joshua learned from Moses. We need to follow a "Moses" in our life and become a faithful disciple.

After salvation comes surrender... we need to learn that God is not only willing to war for our soul but he will guide, provide, and dwell with us. The Lord truly is everything we need in this world.

God went to great lengths to war for your soul... and the events of the Exodus out of Egypt picture this perfectly.

In this final lesson of the series we talk at length about how to live out the Biblical guidelines for dating and relationships. It is not going to be easy, but if we are going to please the Lord in every area of our lives we must follow these basic things.

The first goal of the devil is to remove the authority of the Bible from our lives. The second goal is to make us question God and our relationship with him. His third goal is to make us question and doubt the will of God for our lives, and thankfully Jesus shows us exactly what we must do to fight this battle properly.

First is the spiritual foundation, then emotional, and now we talk about the physical... How can we be prepared in our hearts and minds to date God's way and have a proper perspective physically? God cares deeply about purity, and we should as well.

Job's life is on display as Satan's words are recorded the second time in the Bible. The enemy desires for us to question and doubt our relationship with God in order to defeat us and steal glory from the Lord. Take heed!

After working through how to be spiritually ready for dating God's way, now we need to dive into the emotional side. How can you prepare yourself to date emotionally?

The first time we see Satan show up and utter words his goal is to cause confusion and make us question and contradict the word of God in our personal lives. We need to beware! His tactics haven't changed a lot, but he is incredibly deceptive...

The first thing you must focus on to prepare yourself to date God's way is the spiritual foundation. This foundation is the part of you and your walk with God that is the most secure and steadfast part of your life... not because of us, but because of the Lord -- He never changes (Mal. 3:6) and he is a refuge and a very present help in time of need (Ps. 46:1).

Outside of your personal decision to trust the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and become born-again, the 2nd most important decision you will make in this life is who you will marry. This messages are not popular with the world and our culture, but if we want to do it right we must take heed to what God has to say about relationships.

The people you choose to surround yourself with can play one of the greatest influence factors in who you will become in this life. We must "23  Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. (Proverbs 4:23)"

This section of the series is kicked off by the topic of biblical authority. How we deal with this topic truly will determine many, many other things in life. It all comes back to our heart attitude toward the Lord and being obedient even when we don't "feel like it." This is a lesson we all need as a reminder!

This month's Q&A covers Abraham's bosom and ghosts... we will finish it out next week with a discussion on the varying views of the rapture of the church and which one is Biblical.

After learning about the identity of the body, now we dive into the purpose and design of the body. Ultimately we explore the idea of were we fit and how we figure out where God has placed us in the body.
