  • Sermon on the Mount – Worry vs. Trust
    Sep 17 2024

    "Do not worry about anything" is a difficult command to follow. There are so many uncertain parts of life that cause many parents to constantly be afraid about the future, but Jesus is pretty clear. In this episode, Tim and Matt encourage parents to consider how great and good God is in light of anxiety. God is in control of all things, meaning that nothing happens without Him knowing about it. If this is true, then trust that He is doing what is best for you, your family, and all who believe.

    Passage – Matthew 6:25-34

  • Sermon on the Mount – A Theology of Things
    Sep 10 2024

    This world is very materialistic. People want things and live their lives trying to get the most things, but ultimately, there is no joy or satisfaction in the things of this world. In this episode, Matt and Tim talk about what believers should treasure (after an eight minute breakdown of a depressing weekend of football). If your whole heart is set on Christ, then your parenting and other actions will reflect that. Depend on God because He made us to desire Him.

  • Sermon on the Mount – Do-Gooders
    Sep 4 2024

    There's a lot that is going on for Matt and Tim this time of the year. Football season is upon them, but that will not detract the whole episode (up until around the nine minute mark) because they will talk about the difference between doing good and being a do-gooder. Our actions reflect our hearts, and if our hearts are not right with the Lord, then our actions will fall short of God's standard set in the Bible. Let goodness flow from a heart changed by the Holy Spirit for the benefit of your children and so many others.

    Passage – Matthew 6:1-4
