Ephesians 2:1-10
Saving faith in Jesus Christ is not the act of a single moment in life, but the acquisition of a completely new and different lifestyle for life. The Bible declares, “If anyone be in Christ he is a new creation,” and today we examine five blessings that accompany true saving faith: a New Heart, a New Record, a New Family, a New Life, and a New Home.

Jonah 1
God's people are to respond to His commandments and purposes in our lives with trust and obedience – but Jonah had to learn this the hard way. Join Dr. Harry Reeder next time on InPerspective as he begins a new series about Jonah: A Prodigal Prophet and a Pursuing God.

Ephesians 2:1-10
The Bible teaches that there is a faith that overcomes the world – but there is also a faith that is ultimately overcome BY the world. This is the difference between true saving faith and counterfeit, false faith. What are the five key distinctives of genuine saving faith in Jesus Christ?

1 Timothy 3:14-4:2
A high school graduate who wants to be a doctor cannot immediately begin a hospital residency. He must first go to college and start with the basics like Biology 101 and Anatomy 101. Well, Christians who want to advance to the deeper, more complex doctrines of the faith must first start with Christianity 101 – the basic, essential, foundational doctrines summarized in the Apostles' Creed.

1 Timothy 3:14-4:2
The Apostles’ Creed is a gift of God’s Providence to His Church containing essential foundations of the faith once and for all delivered to the saints. It has served as an instrument of discipleship, confession, and unity since the earliest days of Christianity. Join us today as we begin our new series examining The Apostles' Creed in Biblical Perspective.

Luke 2:22-40
The Holy Spirit had revealed to Simeon that he would see the promised Messiah before he died. When he finally saw the infant Jesus, he immediately recognized Him as the One he was eagerly awaiting and anticipating. He took Jesus up in his arms, rejoiced, and praised God. When you behold the Lord Jesus Christ, do you recognize Him as your Messiah, and praise God for the gift of His Son?

Luke 2:22-40
Did you get what you wanted for Christmas … or even better, something you really needed? Today we will meet a man named Simeon who got exactly what he wanted and needed for Christmas – the one thing he was eagerly awaiting and anticipating. His story reminds us that if you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you got exactly what YOU needed for Christmas as well.

Titus 2:14
During Advent our attention is focused on the baby Jesus born in a humble stable in Bethlehem. Join Dr. Harry Reeder on InPerspective as he explains how we cannot truly understand the full meaning of Christ in the manger, apart from the significance of Christ on the cross.

Matthew 2
Joseph fled to Egypt with Mary and Jesus to protect his family in obedience to God's Word, and to fulfill the prophecy of God's Word. Hosea 11:1 says, “When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son,” and Deuteronomy 4:20 says, “But the LORD has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of His own inheritance, as you are this day.” When you follow the Lord in obedience to His Word, He will never leave you nor forsake you.

In the Christmas carol "O Come, All Ye Faithful," we sing the refrain, "O Come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord." The shepherds responded to the angelic ministry of Christmas by being the first to come and adore the newborn Lord Jesus Christ, but they didn't stop there. They followed up their genuine worship with joyful witness to others of the Good News of Christmas they had seen and heard.
