Throughout the New Testament, we witness the incredible miracles Jesus and the Apostles performed. But in today's world, how can Christians effectively support those who are suffering from illness and pain? We invite you to join us for an enlightening program as Chip shares valuable insights and practical applications from James chapter 5. We will explore the true meaning of divine healing in the 21st century and uncover prayer's transformative role in supernatural breakthroughs.

What are the sick to do? What are the elders to do? What does God promise to do? What sin or other conditions might qualify God's promise to heal? God's general application for physical health is James 5:16-18 What is the presumed relationship between sin and sickness in this passage? What are we all told to do regularly for our health? What kind of prayer has healing impact? Who qualifies to be heard by God for healing and the miraculous? Conclusion: Getting the "Big Picture" on healing. Three biblical models of healing: The intervention of God. --Acts 3:1-9 The interaction of God. --1 Timothy 5:23 The enabling of God. --2 Corinthians 12:9-10 Miraculous healing is never primarily about solving a physical problem – it is almost always to affirm, or clarify, or deliver a person.

	Does God Still Heal? - Emotional Healing - Moving Beyond Treating the Symptoms, Part 2	24 Feb 2025	00:30:11
Our society is facing a severe mental health crisis, with anxiety, depression, and suicide all at alarming high rates. So, where can we turn to for hope? Join Chip as he offers a message of hope and encouragement straight from James chapter 5. Discover how God does not just address our symptoms but aims to heal our emotional wounds in a profound and meaningful way. Tune in for insights that can bring comfort and understanding during these challenging times. Main Points God's prescription for emotional healing: For emotional distress – Rx…. Pray! --James 5:13a For emotional delight – Rx…. Sing! --James 5:13b Question #1: What kind of prayers heal emotional wounds? Prayers that heal emotions include three parts and are called laments: \| 1. Recount your pain. \| 2. Recall God's Character. \| 3. Resolve to trust Him. \| Examples to follow when you feel "bad" due to: \| Depression, doubt, circumstances. --Psalm 13 \| Guilt, shame, sin. --Psalm 38 \| Persecution, adversity. --Psalm 56 \| Injustice, "raw deal." --Psalm 73 Question #2: What kind of prayers fill our emotional reservoir? Prayers that fill our emotional tanks include three parts and are called Psalms of praise: \| 1. Recount your gain. \| 2. Recall God's character. \| 3. Resolve to thank Him. \| Examples to follow when you feel "good" due to: \| God’s forgiveness, healing. --Psalm 103 \| God’s goodness and love. --Psalm 136 \| God’s mighty acts, compassion. --Psalm 145 \| God’s faithfulness, creation. --Psalm 146-150 \| Conclusion: "Ups" and "downs" are normal.

"Getting stuck" is also normal and God uses people, in conjunction with prayer, to mend our emotional wounds. Extreme wounds, at times, demand extended and specialized care.

When you feel dismissed, neglected, or insulted by your spouse, what do you do? Pout? Go silent? Retaliate? In this program, Chip’s gonna help us respond to hurt and pain in a biblical way by teaching from Romans chapter 12.

	Keeping Love Alive - Volume 4 - A Healthy Relationship with Yourself, Part 2	14 Feb 2025	00:25:51
Do you love how God made you? Or are you overly critical and harsh with yourself? Often feeling like you never measure up. In this program, Chip stresses that a thriving marriage is built on a healthy view of ourselves. Wanna learn more? Then join us as we continue Chip’s series, Keeping Love Alive, Volume 4. Main Points Great marriages are characterized by couples who individually find their identity in Christ and don’t expect their spouses to meet all their personal, spiritual, relational, and emotional needs. Translation = We are commanded by Jesus to “Love our neighbors as ourselves.” If we don’t love ourselves in a healthy and non-narcissistic way, we will continually ask of our spouses what they can never deliver. --Matthew 22:37-39 The principle = An accurate self-perception demands we know who we are and whose we are. --1 John 3:1 Developing a healthy relationship with yourself requires: Getting a glimpseof your beginning. --Psalm 139:13-16 Doing an honest self-assessment. --Romans 12:3 Believing who God says you are. --Ephesians 1:3-14 What do we need to believe about God’s character to develop a healthy relationship with ourselves? His wisdom. --Romans 11:33-36 His gentleness. --Matthew 11:28-30 Conclusion: So often we want our marriage to change by what we think our mate needs to do; when in reality a healthy, self-love for who we are and whose we are frees us from demanding what our mates can never supply.

I want You to answer me because when You told me what to do, I was obedient in the past. \| 2. Please don’t forsake me and turn me away. \| 3. Lord, I want you to know that if You don’t help, no one else will either. Psalm 27:11-12 David’s prayer was two-fold: Don’t just deliver me, but bring me into a deeper relationship with You. Psalm 27:13-14 David was tempted to be afraid, but he declared, “I will not fear,” because the Lord was his light and deliverer. Wait = Where is your hope? Where is your confidence?

Three negatives in verse 1: This person doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked. This person doesn’t stand in the path of sinners. --Proverbs 13:20 This person does not sit in the seat of scoffers.

In a world where people are trying to overcome their fear, I will choose to thrive. God assures that following His path will produce a life of blessings and success over time. Verses 4-6: The wicked are not so, but they are like chaff which the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish. The wicked, like worthless chaff separated from wheat, will be blown away and rejected in judgment. God, the all-knowing creator, promises to shepherd those who reject the world's messages and say "yes" to Him through His Word, guiding them through mistakes as they seek a righteous life.

When you hear the word revival, you might think of the spiritual movements from the past, like the Great Awakening. But next in this program, you will discover how God still works that way today. Join Chip and author Jennie Allen as they discuss her passion for uniting the global church to reach the lost and what you can do to make a difference. Main Points Key Takeaways: The vision of Gather25: A 25-hour global event uniting Christians worldwide in prayer, worship, repentance, and sharing stories of God's work. The urgency of the Great Commission: With billions still unreached with the gospel, the Church needs to unite and work together to fulfill Christ's command. The importance of personal spiritual health: Before we can effectively impact the world for Christ, we need to address our own spiritual needs and walk in freedom. The power of confession: Confessing our sins and struggles to God and trusted others breaks the enemy's power and leads to healing and wholeness. Highlights: Jennie's journey from IF:Gathering to the birth of Gather25, inspired by a dream and a desire to mobilize the global Church. The importance of unity and collaboration among Christians despite differing viewpoints on secondary issues. The need for urgency in fulfilling the Great Commission, recognizing that many are perishing without Christ. The role of technology and organizations like illumiNations in reaching the unreached with the gospel. Jennie's emphasis on her own "ordinariness" and the fact that God can use anyone who is willing to say "yes" to Him. A guided exercise in confession and reflection, emphasizing the importance of recognizing our need for God and sharing our struggles with others. Call to Action: Participate in Gather25: Join the global Church on February 28th and March 1st, 2025 for this unifying event. Share the gospel: Take every opportunity to share the good news of Jesus with those around you. Invest in your spiritual health: Prioritize your relationship with God through prayer, Bible study, and confession.

	A Conversation with Jennie Allen - Next Gen. Collegiates Meet Jesus	16 Jan 2025	00:24:37
Amidst a wave of negativity and despair regarding how to reach today’s youth with the gospel, this program offers a refreshing perspective. Chip and author Jennie Allen will inspire listeners to take a more proactive approach, urging everyone to engage in the vital work of discipling the next generation. Rather than fostering criticism, they will invite you to become part of the solution and make a meaningful impact in the lives of young people. Main Points Key Takeaways: Gen Z is open to the gospel: Despite the trends of young people leaving the church, Jennie has witnessed firsthand their hunger for hope and willingness to embrace Jesus. Confession and repentance are powerful: Jennie shares how confession breaks down barriers and allows people to experience true freedom and receive the gospel. The Church's role in discipleship: Events like IF:Gathering and Unite can introduce people to Christ, but the local church plays a vital role in providing ongoing discipleship and spiritual formation for the next generation. Discipleship is more than programs: True discipleship involves intentional relationships, modeling a godly life, and guiding young people in their understanding of the Bible. Highlights: Jennie's experience leading a revival in a maximum-security women's prison and seeing a radical transformation in the inmates' lives. The importance of addressing shame and offering grace to a generation struggling with various challenges. The power of confession to break strongholds and prepare hearts for the gospel. The Unite ministry and its impact on secular college campuses, with thousands of students attending events and many making decisions for Christ. The need for Christians to be actively involved in discipling young people through mentoring, sharing their faith journey, and providing biblical guidance. Call to Action: Get involved in discipleship: Every Christian has a responsibility to invest in the lives of young people and help them grow in their faith. Support ministries like IF:Gathering and Unite: These organizations are effectively reaching the next generation with the gospel. Pray for the next generation: Pray that they would come to know Jesus and be equipped to live out their faith in a changing world.

	Good to Great in God's Eyes - Pursue Great People, Part 2	15 Jan 2025	00:34:50
The road to greatness is not walked alone. In fact, greatness is never achieved in a vacuum. It is forged in community.

It’s true when we grow up. Timeless Axiom: We become most like those we admire and those with whom we interact most frequently. Practice: Pursue Great People! --Proverbs 13:20 I. Why pursue great people? God's Word is emphatic about the company we keep. --1 Corinthians 15:33; Hebrews 13:7; 1 Corinthians 4:15-16; Proverbs 27:17 Our baggage and backgrounds demand it! (Reference: The Wounded Healer by Henry Nouwen) II. How do you pursue great people? Start by looking in the rear-view mirror. What four or five people have most positively impacted your life? Now, look out the windshield. We all need three kinds of people in our lives. A Paul to “learn from.” A Barnabas to “share with.” A Timothy to “help grow.” III. Get started without getting discouraged. A warning to heed. A perspective to consider. An action plan to follow.

	Good to Great in God's Eyes - Make Great Sacrifices, Part 2	31 Dec 2024	00:31:07
Want to become great in God’s eyes? In this message, you’ll learn why sacrifice and greatness go hand in hand. Main Points Introduction: Pondering the Power of “Sacrifice” Great sacrifices, even in movies, art, music, or athletics produce a profound and almost inexplicable emotional and spiritual response. We admire those who make great sacrifices. We enshrine those who make great sacrifices. We honor those who make great sacrifices. We reward those who make great sacrifices. We seek to emulate those who make great sacrifices. Why? – What is this mystical union and soul connection we subconsciously make when we witness a great sacrifice for a noble cause, or a personal relationship? Answer – Sacrifice is the clearest and greatest evidence of the extent of one’s love and devotion toward a person, a cause, or a thing. --John 15:13 In short, sacrifice is “the arrow” that points toward who or what we worship (ascribe worth, importance, value to). I. Understanding Biblical sacrifice and worship: Lessons from Leviticus: Chapters 1-10 Lessons from the life of Abraham: Genesis 22 Lessons from the teachings of Jesus: Luke 14:25-35 Lessons from the Apostle Paul: Romans 12:1 II. What motivates great Christians to make great sacrifices? They grasp God’s unconditional love. They embrace God’s relational economy. They trust God’s eternal goodness. They recognize God’s sovereign ownership. III. Next steps to becoming great in God’s eyes: Have you surrendered your whole life to Christ as a living and holy sacrifice? Are you growing in loving God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength? Conclusion – Sacrifice is merely “love with clothes on.” Where there is great love there will always be great sacrifices.

	Good to Great in God's Eyes - Make Great Sacrifices, Part 1	30 Dec 2024	00:31:26
Chip continues this series with a topic that most of us rarely think about. And yet, it is one of the most important keys to cultivating an intimate walk with God. Join Chip as he shares how making great sacrifices is the gateway to greatness with God. Main Points Introduction: Pondering the Power of “Sacrifice” Great sacrifices, even in movies, art, music, or athletics produce a profound and almost inexplicable emotional and spiritual response. We admire those who make great sacrifices. We enshrine those who make great sacrifices. We honor those who make great sacrifices. We reward those who make great sacrifices. We seek to emulate those who make great sacrifices. Why? – What is this mystical union and soul connection we subconsciously make when we witness a great sacrifice for a noble cause, or a personal relationship? Answer – Sacrifice is the clearest and greatest evidence of the extent of one’s love and devotion toward a person, a cause, or a thing. --John 15:13 In short, sacrifice is “the arrow” that points toward who or what we worship (ascribe worth, importance, value to). I. Understanding Biblical sacrifice and worship: Lessons from Leviticus: Chapters 1-10 Lessons from the life of Abraham: Genesis 22 Lessons from the teachings of Jesus: Luke 14:25-35 Lessons from the Apostle Paul: Romans 12:1 II. What motivates great Christians to make great sacrifices? They grasp God’s unconditional love. They embrace God’s relational economy. They trust God’s eternal goodness. They recognize God’s sovereign ownership. III. Next steps to becoming great in God’s eyes: Have you surrendered your whole life to Christ as a living and holy sacrifice? Are you growing in loving God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength? Conclusion – Sacrifice is merely “love with clothes on.” Where there is great love there will always be great sacrifices.

	Peace on Earth - Fear Not, The Good News is Here	24 Dec 2024	00:30:53
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” We are all familiar with that verse, but what does it look like to live with the peace God promises? In this program, guest teacher Tim Lundy takes us to Luke chapter 2 and the angel's stunning announcement to some humble shepherds. Discover how this declaration of joy and hope can transform your experience of Christmas—and bring lasting peace into your everyday life. Main Points Fear manifests in various ways: Anxiety Worry Anger Driven-ness “Fear not” to the shepherds --Luke 2:8-20 Good news for all people – Jesus came Peace is here Jesus fulfilled prophecy --Micah 5:2; Isaiah 9 Question: Are you experiencing that genuine peace? The problem: We often take the command “fear not” and try to address it without the promise. We can’t do anything on our own. The solution: You need more of Jesus Be filled with the Holy Spirit. You want to be filled with Jesus, then pray. Seek His Kingdom. Connect with His Church and His Word.
