Series Topics
Week 1 – The War on God
The enemy knows that when humanity aligns his life with Biblical truth, humanity is aligned with laws that govern life- there is less opportunity to destroy. God created all moral, social, and scientific laws. God gives humanity the choice as to whether to cooperate with Him or not. Join us this week as we lay the foundation for engaging the spiritual war.
Week 2 – The War on Truth
True freedom is predicated on the truth, not our truth but God’s truth. In a world where everything goes and nothing is objective, we find ourselves lost and confused. However, when we embrace God’s eternal truth, we are truly liberated and free to live our best life. Join us this week as we learn how to think Biblically and in doing so avoid deception.
Week 3 – The War on Family
The enemy has doubled down on his relentless war on the traditional nuclear family and as a result our culture has continue to denigrate into anarchy and chaos. It was always God’s intention for our families to represent Him in such a way that the world would take notice and adjust accordingly. Join us this week as we rediscover God’s plan for family.
Week 4 – The War on Education
We live out what we believe. Education is the most powerful weapon which can be used to change the world and the enemy knows it. Our education system in America has been hijacked from its original objectives and it is time to take it back. Join us this week as we learn God’s strategy for educating our children.
Week 5 – The War on Government
Jesus engaged political and religious leaders directly and boldly. On numerous occasions the Apostle Paul leverage political influence for the sake of The Gospel, and we should to. Politics matter and elections have consequences. Join us this week as we discuss the Christians role in politics and government.
Week 6 – The War on The Church
The War on the Church is not a war waged by the world, but a war waged from within. As Christians, it is tempting to coast or drift in our faith and allow familiarity to with God to replace the awe we once had for Him. What is the bulwark against this tendency? The answer is honor. Jesus says in Matthew 15:8 that it is easy to honor God with our lips and our hearts still be far from Him. Join us this week as we learn more about honor and the Biblical Principle of First.
