Have you ever seen an old abandoned church building? Whenever I do, I wonder about all that took place within the walls. I think about the worship, teaching, and people's lives that were changed there. But then I wonder where they are now. Why is that church building abandoned? Where did all the people go? It was once alive and meant something, but now what? Don't let your religion be like an old abandoned church building. In his writings, Paul gives three statements declaring what powerful and meaningful religion looks like. This sermon applies those statements to our lives today.

The mindset in our culture is growing increasingly unreasonable. For instance, people will jump through hoops to save an inch long fish in a creek as well as its eggs, but they will fight hard for the abortion of babies. It doesn't make sense. We see such senselessness in morality, politics, and every day thinking. In contrast, God's people will be a reasonable people. We have a great opportunity to shine the light of the knowledge of the Son of God to this lost and dying world.

We profess to believe that Jesus arose from the dead; however, does our life reflect that belief? A real knowledge and appreciation of the empty tomb will radically change a person's life. Our problem is often one of unbelieving belief. We believe in the resurrection, but we don't REALLY believe. True belief will manifest itself. This lesson looks at the great impact the resurrection should be having on our lives.

Spirituality and holiness is not a complicated issue. We make decisions on a daily basis that either make us spiritual and holy or make us worldly and ungodly. Moses is a great example for us in how to approach our decisions. He overcame temptations and made sacrifices to do what was right.

We all are building something every day. We are building in our own lives, the lives of others, and the life of the local church of which we are a part. Nehemiah shows us a great example of what a man of God can do when he trusts in God and does what he can in serving the Lord and others. He didn't have super powers and he didn't work miracles. He simply worked hard for the Lord and inspired others along the way.

One of the biggest problems we struggle with in our faith is complacency. We all face times when we grow lukewarm in our service to God and love for Him. This is something that affects seasoned and mature Christians... no one is immune. As Jesus spoke to the church at Laodicea, we learn that one of the ways to battle this problem is to return to an appreciation of the awesome nature of the Lord. This lesson is a journey through the Bible looking at some of the awesome descriptions of our God. It's hard to be complacent when you're standing in awe of God!

When someone asks us how we are doing we typically respond, "I'm good." If someone asks us our opinion on another person we may describe them saying, "He's a good guy" or "She's good girl." We usually are speaking about ourselves and others in physical terms or we are saying that a person is a pretty good moral person. The Bible teaches us that outside of Christ none of us are good. We need to see ourselves and others the way God sees us. This lesson reminds us to look spiritually.
