If each of us looked at our daily "screen time", we'd find a good indication of what saturates us. Does the word of God get as much time? If not, you might want to re-evaluate if you're maturing in your walk.

Many of us may be knowledgeable in the Word of God; some may even be "know-it-alls", but is it your gift? Tune in to find out as well as how to use it rightly!

In the 12 hours since this was taught, we've already had multiple students say this hit them right where they're at. Surely they're not alone! What comes out of you when you're squeezed and put to the test? Do you count it all joy?

Today we look at not only the first gift in our series, but the first in the "revealing gifts" subcategory. Are you gifted with words of wisdom? What's the difference between knowledge and wisdom? How do you apply this to your life if you're gifted with it?

Before we dive into the Marks of a Maturing Disciple, we have to dig into the historical context of who actually wrote this book and why. This isn't your basic book overview. As we'll see by the end, the background of this book can have tremendous practical applications to your life right now.

Now that we know who we are, we need to know what God thinks about us according to his Word. We also need to understand that the moment of our salvation gifted us with a lot more than just eternal life and forgiveness of sins. We also do a brief doctrinal dive into certain spiritual gifts that are no longer in operation today.

We kick off our two-part introduction to Spiritual Gifts with a learning style survey. How well do you actually know yourself? If you'd like to partake with us, pause the Podcast at the 7:32 mark and then run over to our Wordpress to download the survey!

This passage almost wasn't covered, but it's the verse from which all the other "ONE THING's" flow out of. If we keep our eyes upon THIS principle, we will have no problem achieving the others. If someone's final words were telling you not to not be ignorant of ONE THING, you'd do well to perk up your listening. https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/08/28/be-not-ignorant-of-this-one-thing/

As school is starting back up and students are following the Lord in believer's baptism, I can think of no better passage than Philippians 3:13-14 to set our focus upon. Study Sheet found here: https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/08/21/one-thing-i-do/

This lesson is the second half of "seeking his presence" that we began last week with prayer. We get a great example as to what applying Scripture actually looks like, as well as an alarming warning what a hearer only of the Word looks like.

This one is almost assured to hit closer to home no matter where you're at. As we continue to strip away the complexities we've made our walk with God to be, today we're going to focus on what is quite perhaps the most important element of our relationship. It probably is NOT what you're thinking it is...

The Spirit of God moved many of us at camp this year to hone our attention to ONE THING to commit to amidst many. God has used that phrase several times in his word for us to maintain a single focus amidst the pull of the enemy to convolute the simplicity that is found in Christ (2 Cor. 11:3).

Today we give the ins and outs of everything our ministry is about to our incoming Freshmen, while also serving as a reminder of our purpose to everyone else of these principles "though ye know them" (2 Peter 1:12).

WEDNESDAY PM: https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/06/29/undefiled-summer-camp-win-the-medal-of-honor-pastor-scott-brown/ If you really want to be a part of the few and sanctified, there are biblical requirements. Make no mistake about it: you can be following through on the first three points, but not following through with the final point may just be what keeps you from being part of God's Undefiled Remnant.

TUESDAY PM: https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/06/28/undefiled-summer-camp-how-to-be-a-part-of-gods-vip-club-pastor-scott-brown/ Tonight we look at the most Undefiled group that will ever step foot on this planet outside of Jesus Christ: the 144,000 Witnesses. What can we glean from these men to help us remain pure and clean in this world?

TUESDAY AM: https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/06/27/undefiled-summer-camp-5-signs-youre-dating-the-wrong-person-pastor-scott-brown/ As the world is seeking to corrupt us and make us defiled, God has given us red flags from his word to look for when choosing a potential mate.

MONDAY PM: https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/06/27/undefiled-summer-camp-are-you-a-limited-edition-christian-pastor-scott-brown/ The more scarce an item is, the more value it has. Are you living pure and undefiled, or are you selling yourself cheap? What type of a believer are you: 1) Saved, 2) Disciple, or 3) Christian?

MONDAY AM SESSION: https://fbcjsolidyouth.wordpress.com/2023/06/27/undefiled-summer-camp-3-qualities-you-need-before-marriage-pastor-scott-brown/ There’s no area that Satan wants us to be defiled in more than in our relationships. If we’re going to stay clean in this crooked and perverse world, we must remember we don’t attract what we want, we attract what we are.

If last week pertained to the areas of our life that are not bringing glory to God, this week is all about the areas that are. What does God expect of fruitful branches? The answer is found in the same verse as last week (John 15:2). The question now presents itself: why prune (purge) fruitful branches?

Dead, Damaged, or Diseased...Today we take a gut-punch look at the state of the vineyard that we all live in. This one hits closer to home for all of us, no matter how the last 50 weeks of your life have gone. Do not miss this time of introspection as we evaluate which areas of our life are not bringing forth fruit.
