Life's Challenges
*Overcoming Depression
- Catch it early! Discern the subtle ways depression comes in your life
- Recognize that you have a say in this. God gave you the authority and power to guard your heart and mind against negative thinking
- Learn how to value God more than your circumstances! God cannot get bigger than He is but you can certainly make Him bigger in your mind.
- Understand that Jesus went through what you are going through! He understands how you feel and made provision for you to enter His rest.
Advancing Through Adversity
Confidence Killers
In order to live the victorious Christian life, we must deal with the confidence killers on the journey. Confidence killers are self-defeating thought patterns that we act out in our emotions. Many of us walk through life with these harmful emotions of condemnation, guilt, and shame. Christ went to the cross so that we do not have to be plagued by these negative emotions. Jesus is called the Prince of Peace, but we cannot enjoy peace if we do not deal with these toxic thought patterns.
Discerning the Purpose of a Season
The purpose of a season is to do the right thing at the right time. Doing the right thing at the wrong time can get you disastrous results! The goal of Satan is to have you doing the wrong thing or do the right thing at the wrong time so as to hinder your confidence when you don’t get the results you desire. This teaching will help you discern the season that you are in and its purpose for your life.
Enjoying Everyday Life
Did you know that God never intended for us believers to live life for the sole purpose of fixing it? Most of us are on our way to heaven but don't get to enjoy the journey. According to Galatians 5.22-23 & Nehemiah 8.10, we can stir up the inward weapon called joy and get the strength to stand in adverse circumstances. Our relationship alone is reason for celebration and He has graced us to enjoy the simple things in life. It's time for us to experience the life Jesus came to provide and understand the power there is in enjoying each and everyday.
Failing Forward
Failure doesn’t have to be fatal! With the right attitude, failure can propel you forward in life. Most of the people God used in the bible experienced failure one way or another. This did not stop God from using them as long as they responded positively. The way you perceive and respond to failure can make a huge difference in your life. Learn how to turn setbacks into stepping stones today!
Fear
“What would I pursue if I knew I could not fail?” Does fear keep holding you back? Fear is the chief emotion that Satan uses to prevent us from using our potential. This four-part teaching will help you identify and conquer the sources of fear in your life. You are on your way to answering that question!
Finding Peace in the Storm
In times of confusion and crisis, few things come under attack as much as our peace. Peace is internal tranquility despite external hostility. The enemy knows that if he can upset our peace, he can sabotage our hope. This four part teaching series offers insight on what causes us to live without God's peace in our lives, and how we can reverse course and open our hearts to receive it.
Holding Patterns
Few things are as challenging to our Christian walks as when we find ourselves in a period where we are waiting on God for a breakthrough. For most Christians, the challenge is not in trusting God, rather, it usually revolves around three main components of time: First, the amount of time that has passed while we are waiting. Secondly, the brevity of time left until we need an answer. Thirdly, it may simply be the timing of our holding pattern (i.e. it is occurring at a very inopportune time.) But we don’t have to waste time in those holding patterns if we simply make the most of the season God has us in. This teaching is a must if we are going to learn how to navigate through these challenges and convert seeming stumbling blokes into stepping stones!
How to Handle Anger
How to Overcome Life's Obstacles
Ideals vs Realities- The Tension in the Middle
We all have desires and aspirations about what we can become in Christ. Yet as we read the promises in the bible and compare them to what we are experiencing there’s often a disconnect, and we wrestle with the differences between our ideals and the realities of our lives. The tension that results can leave us disillusioned, discouraged and demoralized. In this provocative teaching we will discuss the most common tensions (including: toxic people; dealing with adversity; learning how to transition from where you are to where God wants you to be) that exist between our ideals and our realities, and the steps that one must take to address them.
Making Peace with Your Past
Are you hampered by the baggage of your past? The truth is, much of who you are, what you do, and how you feel is determined by your past. Whether they're relationships from your childhood or pressures from recent years, the events of the past can have a significant impact on your current behavior. This insightful teaching shows you how to unlock past hurts, confront emotional scars, and resolve negative feelings.
Offense: Satan's Tool For Robbing You of Your Potential
Temptations, Tests & Trials
Knowing the difference between temptation, test, and trial is critical. Those three words are frequently used in the Bible but they each have a different origin, purpose, and desired outcome. We must learn how properly respond to each or we will not live out the life God has designed for us. God will test us in order develop and promote us. Satan will use our own lust to tempt us in order to demote us. Trials are challenges we encounter in life. The appropriate response to a test is to pass it in order to graduate to the place God desires. When it comes to temptation, we must take the way of escape less we compromise. As it relates to trials, we need to keep a right attitude…
The Advantage
In these turbulent times, you can easily view yourself as a victim rather than a victor. The constant inundation of negative news will make you lose strength and faith. As a believer, you cannot afford to forget the six tools that your Heavenly Father gave you to navigate and succeed in these difficult times:
1. Covenant - Your covenant relationship with God through Jesus
2. Holy Spirit - The presence and power of the Holy Spirit in your life
3. Words - Your words can be a powerful weapon when aligned with God’s word.
4. Righteousness - Your right standing with the father through the son seals you with the love of God
5. Exchange Life - The exchange that Jesus made with you not only provided you with forgiveness of sins but also prosperity in your health, finances, peace of mind and authority
6. Authority - The authority you have as a believer makes you fight from victory instead of fighting for victory.
We consider this series a compilation of the best teachings conducted and recorded over the last 7 years by our ministry. It is a MUST own for any believer.
The Ministry of Grief
Do you feel that you just can’t metabolize life’s experiences when the pain of past relationships or moral failures is just too much for you to bear? Or, are you having a difficult time getting over the loss of a loved one? This teaching series will help you let go of your past so you can embrace what can be and live.
The Unplanned Place
Does it seem that the harder you try the worse your circumstances get? You keep doing the right thing but wrong keeps happening to you? At some point, we all find ourselves in an unimaginable and unexpected season of life. While this can leave you feeling hopeless, confused, and emotionally spent: it does not have to be your experience. We will discover how one man in the Bible, Joseph, found himself in a place he didn't plan or even fathom. Like him, you can be victorious even if you find yourself in a pit. This teaching will give you the tools needed to not only survive in that pit, but also thrive in it. You can rise from the ashes and begin to live the intentional life God has designed for you.
The Unplanned Place - The Series
This is an extended version of the Unplanned Place single teaching.
Understand The Purpose Of Test & Trial
This series shows you how to determine whether the current situation you’re in is a test or a trial. It focuses on:
- The importance of your attitude.
- How to extract the lesson that God desires for you to learn from the situation.
What to Do When You Don't Know What to Do
We all find ourselves in seasons of life where it seems like we are just being inundated with all
sorts of unexpected challenges. If we are not careful, it is really easy to fall prey to becoming overwhelmed. One thing you can do if you don’t know what to do is to get this teaching.
