Catch 22: Staff (Lamedh)

Found in the ancient Hebrew language are 22 letters or icons that speak to the power, presence, and purpose of Christ. In this series Dr. Nick Francis Stephens will continue to walk us through how we can read Psalm 119 in light of these powerful images.
 
LAMEDH
(Psalm 119:89-96)
Forever, O Lord, your wordis firmly fixed in the heavens.Your faithfulness endures to all generations;you have established the earth, and it stands fast.By your appointment they stand this day,for all things are your servants.If your law had not been my delight,I would have perished in my affliction.I will never forget your precepts,for by them you have given me life.I am yours; save me,for I have sought your precepts.The wicked lie in wait to destroy me,but I consider your testimonies.I have seen a limit to all perfection,but your commandment is exceedingly broad.

Celebrate Mom by Nick Francis Stephens (May 12, 2019)

What does it mean to buy truth? What does it mean to purchase wisdom? This week we look at 1 Samuel 1 to learn lessons from a mom who demonstrated a life of doing just this.
"Listen to your father who gave you life,and do not despise your mother when she is old.Buy truth, and do not sell it;buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding.The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice;he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him.Let your father and mother be glad;let her who bore you rejoice."
Proverbs 23:22-25
 

LOVE³ by Nick Francis Stephens (April 21. 2019)

Jesus asked Peter three times, "Do you love me?".
Even though Easter is core moment that defines all eternity, how does it define your heart, mind, and life? What did Jesus mean when he was asking Peter this question?
This week, on Easter Sunday, Nick gives a talk on John 21. It's the third time that the disciples see Jesus, the risen Christ. Is this the end or does Jesus have something yet to teach those he loves? 
Easter is not only the day that Jesus came back to life but it also the day which we are invited to  once again live.
Here are the Links to the three videos. Enjoy!

______________________
Does following Jesus ever feel like a Catch-22? Do you find yourself caught between a desire to follow Jesus and a fear when not trusting in yourself?
In this series Nick will be walking us through the Hebrew alphabet and the prose written in reflection found in Psalm 119. Here in the longest chapter in the Bible are 22 things we can catch regarding God's character, passion and love for us. We can apply these truths to our daily lives and demonstrate a faithfulness to him that moves us deeper into maturity with Him.
Psalm 119:17-24 Daleth - (Door, enter, opening, separation)
