As Job deals with physical pain, personal loss, and the rejection and condemnation of the people closest to him, he looks to God in hope. He clings to the belief that God will set the record straight, come to his aid, and reveal Himself to him. This message looks at the hope we need when we can’t see the path forward.
Job 19:21-27

We often come to God with shame and frustration over our attempts at true righteousness. And it’s possible to bring our old mindset into our new relationship with Him.

Romans 8:1-17 // [outline}
Self-help books line the bestseller lists, promising personal growth to all who follow their seven easy steps. But the testimony of the Bible is that even the greatest list of rules was unsuccessful in changing people. What’s wrong with the lists? Why don’t we do what we want to do? And how can we really change? This message looks at what went wrong under Old Covenant, so we don’t make the same mistakes under the New Covenant.
Romans 7:7-25 // [outline]
People see the commands of God and feel their condemnation. Shame leads to defeat which leads to sin and more shame. The gospel breaks this cycle. We now live under the principle of double jeopardy. This message looks at how our death to sin’s penalty enables us to walk free of its condemnation and serve God in the power of the Holy Spirit.
