Chapel Service: Philippians 1:1-11

June 29, 2020
There are a lot of people who find it difficult to love and be loved. Love is not about feeling. The only way anyone gets saved is if God opens our hearts. He takes away the heart of stone and gives us a heart of flesh. If the Apostle Paul had not been mistreated in Acts 16, the jailer would not have been saved. Is is believed that the church at Philippi, in part, begun by this jailer and his family. No one can escape God, we will either face Him as His dearly loved child or as His enemy.

Chapel Service: Song of Songs 6-8

June 26, 2020
We should not obsess over our bodies, nor should we forsake the bodies that God has fearfully and wonderfully made. The unique relationship between a husband and a wife is something that is pleasing to God and should be taught to children. The sexual relationship between a husband and a wife is not a conquest. There should only be one husband for one wife. When looking for marriage we need to find someone who wants to protect sexual purity and not just satisfy their own sexual desires. Men should encourage purity in women. Character lasts and Godliness grows, we need to follow the Creators plan.

Sex is beautiful and God's plan. Unfortunately, the world experiences painful consequences for not following God's plan. For those who follow Christ sex is part of God's plan for His creation. All of us have to learn to say no to our desires that are not in God's plan. Desire is natural and wholesome and God made us to have desires. However, God's word teaches us which desires are within His will and which desires are not. We are not to awaken love until the time is right. The abortion problem in America is due to the rampant sexual sin that is rampant in America. God is the one who created sex. He designed our bodies for each other in the context of marriage. We are not to stir up sexual desires in ourselves or others. God's plan is for His glory and our good.

All of the Bible should be read and understood. Our bodies are beautiful creations of God. We are not all alike but we are all amazing. Sexual desire and pleasure are part of God's plan. The physical union between a husband and wife is also a spiritual union. The context for sex is an inclusive union between one husband and one wife for life. Sex is designed by God to be an expression of love between a man and a woman who are married to each other. Whether or not God wants us to be married, God's plan is perfect for us. We need to be in God's will.

Chapel Service: New Life

June 19, 2020
When we don't serve the God who is God, we are free to be our own authority, our own god. Once we know where we will spend forever, then we can know how to live now. Before we know Jesus we feel like we need the things of this world to feel successful. When we know Jesus we know we don't need anything else. We must seek first the Kingdom of God and everything we need we be given to us. God knows how to speak our language. God loves us!

Chapel Service: Three Questions

June 17, 2020
Three are the most important questions in life are: Who do you think you are? Where do you think you are going? What do you think you are doing? Pastor Wood teaches about these questions and how they shape our lives. Everything we do now is of eternal significance because we should be doing it for Jesus. Our greatest point of blessing is often tied to our greatest pain.

Chapel Service: Isaiah 66:12-16

June 15, 2020
Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord! Our God is a consuming fire and He will judge the earth with fire. When that happens, there will be no place to run. When we die, what do we expect and what are we hoping to take? The things that our world holds dear are not important, what is important is whether or not our lives are hidden in Christ. We are not to fear what the people of this world fear, Christians are only to fear with reverential awe, the Lord our God. The world cannot destroy the Kingdom of God! Jesus died and rose again so that we might live.

Chapel Service: 2 Kings 6:8-23

June 12, 2020
Unseen realities are throughout the old and new testaments. There are unseen forces that are very real and powerful. They are at war with the people of God. Even so, their doom is sure, and one day they will be defeated forever. God is greater than any person, and God is still on the throne. There is nothing that God does not know about, He knows our motives, and He knows the future. Sin is insanity. God is the Creator of life. If we are trusting in God, we do not need to be afraid. God may not do what we want, but he always does what is best. We all were by nature enemies of God. He has chosen to love and bless us, His enemies. There is so much going on that we cannot see. We need to love, trust, and obey God.

Chapel Service: Psalm 25

June 8, 2020
When we surrender our lives to the Lord, we will still have battles. Whatever we go through we must focus on the Lord. We cannot get the trophy without running the race. The Lord is good and does what is right. God's will for us is perfect. The Lord will lead us to and on the correct path. We have an enemy that is real and powerful. If we are honest we don't have to be afraid. Our only hope is in the Lord.
