“The Seasons of Life”- Ecclesiastes 3:1-15
God not only designed the natural seasons of climate and weather; He can change the order of events to fulfill His plan. A wicked region invites God’s judgment - droughts, floods, storms, etc. Human mortality is described as seasonal and brief. What can we do as we approach uncertain times or new plateaus? |

”Why we are Cynical” - Ecclesiastes 1-10Cynicism is the dominant spirit of our age because we have ignored the goodness of God. Satan’s first recorded words were cynical. Secularism is a cynical view of reality. Without the Good Shepherd, we are lost in a meaningless story. Hope begins with the heart of God and grows strong in a spirit of thankfulness. |

“Finding the Root Cause to Surface Problems” - Mark 11:12-14; 4:16-17Our nation and our homes are reeling from pagan attitudes and actions that embolden violence and wickedness. We delve beneath the outward behavior and probe into the hidden and deep attitudes of the heart. The large drug and counseling industry often gives the wrong advice.

“From Judgmental to Discerning” - 1 Kings 3:9-11; Job 6:30; Romans 2:1-5 There are six indicators that expose a judgmental spirit and seven steps to turn judgment into discernment. Without divine discernment leaders can not govern their nation, people can’t tell right from wrong and parents can’t train their children. The godly mature are wise. Heb. 5:14

“Holy Faith and National Freedom” - Mal. 3:16-18; 1 Cor. 5:6-7 God knows those who are His! Holy faith is a loving, obedient, serving lifestyle that protects our freedoms linked to our historic Judeo/Christian roots. Individual believers must be committed to personal and civic diligence because there are many within our nation who are corruptive and evil. |
