We kick off the series that will lead us to summer camp by taking a closer look at our Church's vision for the year. This is something we want to constantly keep in front of our students before, during, and after camp. How and why should you redeem the time?

Download the PowerPoint slides here and buckle up! We're going back to Genesis 6 (nightmares should be minimal this time)!

We conclude our series by looking at the fruit of the Spirit which is the mark of holiness (Lev. 27:30). As we ask these 50 questions, evaluate your own life: are you actually saved (positionally holy), and if so, is there evidence in your life that you're walking right (practically holy)?

"Moderation"...the great lie of the Laodicean Church. This message has been a long time coming. You are urged to remember the key of bible study: "Let God be true and every man a liar". In other words, when you see something in God's word that goes contrary to what you believe, you surrender your will to his word, not the other way around.

What is so significant about the Dead Sea Scrolls? What does the Bible say about abortion, guns, drugs, and gay marriage? Should Biblical fasting be a part of our reasonable service?

Gambling, smoking/vaping/chewing/dipping, over/undereating, & laziness. If you look at this message as a list of "do's and don'ts" you've completely missed the point of holiness. God desires us to be CLEAN and SPOTLESS (2 Cor. 11:2). You need to ask "am I going to obey the word of God?", or is your mind already made up before you hear the matter (Prov. 18:13)?

Continuing from last week, we take a look at the idolatrous aspect of sexual immorality before concluding with how to perfect holiness in this realm. Here we get a glimpse of just how serious God is on this issue.

This question stirred me. The reality is, we've all thought about it at some point or another. Are we just going to be singing and praising for all eternity? Even if we are, is that so bad in light of what he's done for us? Perhaps we're too comfortable here in this world. Tune in to get a glimpse of what else you may be doing in eternity future!

This was supposed to be covered in one week; God had other plans. Here we cover what purity is as well as how God designed sex to be a beautiful thing within the confines of marriage as outlined in the word of God. However, Satan being a counterfeiter of God, has perverted sex and made it into something twisted in our society.

Why are these wildfires happening? Does the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah relate to Los Angeles? Also, is the garden of Eden going to be in heaven when we get there?

Continuing the second half of this series on how to live out holiness, Trent covers the things that proceed out our mouths. We saw last week how the things that come out are a reflection of what our hearts are truly like. This week, we take a closer look at how unclean our hearts can be when we evaluate our words.

The first four weeks of this study focused on our need for holiness as well as God's standard for it. Now we begin to dive into specific areas of our lives in need of holiness. Automatically, we start to look on the outside for places to "clean up", but God's method is to always start on the inside before working on the outward.

This lesson is all about desire. Do we have the desire to be holy in all manner of life? That's what is implied in the second half of Romans 6:11 where we're called to be "...alive unto God...". How do we do that? And are we on our own for that desire? Tune in for the answers!

God continues to impress us with how he can tie two seemingly different questions together. But that's the beauty of God's word - no man can possibly do that! Only the true author of this book can. Are you watching for his return? Are you going to be found faithful when he returns?

Following up from last week's message, we know we experience practical holiness because of "the old man" of our fleshy nature still seeking control over us, but what about our mind, emotions, and our will? This message sheds light on the opposition in our soul concerning our daily holiness.

So far, all of our questionshave come from Revelation 4 where the church is raptured and we're at the throne of God. Tonight gives a little preview of what we'll see when that day comes!

In order to understand why you struggle daily with the pursuit of holiness, you have to comprehend the two natures that are constantly warring inside of you (Gal. 5:17). This message details how & why God sees you as perfectly holy in his sight, while giving us the need for us to follow after holiness (Heb. 12:14) all day long.

Back by popular demand! You wouldn't think it by looking at it, but both questions are very uniquely connected together. We get deep on this one, but don't miss the devotional truths sprinkled throughout. Download the study sheet and slides found in the link above!

Most of Christianity today thinks the greatest attribute of God is love. Though God is love (1 Jn. 4:8), it is from his HOLINESS that all other attributes flow out of. Just as he is holy, we are likewise commanded to BE the same (1 Pet. 1:15-16).

This message takes a look at the first social media influencer ever. His life's motto and drive wasn't all that different from what you see online and what's being pumped into the teenage brain on a daily basis. There's only one end for those who get after it and grind for what they want out of life.
