"All Things New": Weekly Leader Training—Unit 36, Session 2: The Redeemer Calls His People Toward Renewal
The letters to the seven churches are filled with insight into what constitutes a faithful Christian congregation. In the first four, we see several important emphases. In the letter to Ephesus, we’re reminded of the need for a passionate, right relationship with God from which good works flow (and without which good works are dead). The letter to Smyrna...

“All Things New”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 36, Session 2—Letters to the Seven Churches
Revelation 2–3 is the section of Scripture I always wish we had more time to invest in during each of our three-year cycles. It pains me to cover all seven churches in one session. Each could make a fantastic session on its own. Each letter is built on fascinating historical context that when known more fully brings it to...

"All Things New": Weekly Leader Training—Unit 35, Session 5: Defending the Faith
Bible commentators often point out the similarities between Jude’s and Peter’s epistles. Like Jude, Peter often spoke about our common salvation. First Peter 1:3-5 points out that God has given us “new birth” into His family through the person and work of Jesus Christ. Amazingly, by the grace and power of God, our spiritual DNA has changed because we...

“All Things New”: Preschool & Kids Leader Training for Unit 35, Session 5—Defending the Faith
I enjoy a good argument. Not one that is saturated in anger, mind you, but a nice, friendly, impassioned debate. Is synchronized swimming a sport? (no)Is a hotdog a sandwich? (no)Are all the Star Wars movies enjoyable? (yes)Should people use gift as a verb? (no) There’s just something about going back and forth with someone that can be invigorating....
