• Speaker: Dr. Richard Wells
• Date: January 20, 2008
• Key Scripture: Matthew 8.14-17

Sermon from Sunday, January 20, 2008 by Dr. Richard Wells

Taking it home . . .

UpReach: Read Matt 8.1-17.  How many miracles are recorded in this passage?  What do the people involved have in common?  (Hint: pay special attention to the first miracle.)   What do these miracles tell us about the love of God?

InReach: Read Matt 8.17 (quoted from Is 53.4).  What does this verse mean?  What comfort might it bring in times of trouble?

OutReach: Read Matt 10.5-8.  The disciples were to share the gospel by meeting needs, just as Jesus did.  Try to think of ways we can share the gospel in the same way today.

The call of God to the people of God is evangelism.

• Speaker: Dr. Richard Wells
• Date: January 13, 2008
• Key Scripture: Jonah 3.1-5, 10;4.1,2

Taking it home . . .

UpReach Read the book of Jonah (yes, the book, it’s only 47 verses!).  What attribute of God is most outstanding?  How can you acknowledge that attribute in your life?

InReach Why do you think Jonah was so depressed—to the point of wanting to die (chap. 4)?  What can we learn from his experience about our own walk with Christ?

OutReach What was Jonah’s message to Ninevah?  What was the response of the Ninevites?  What do you think this teaches us about sharing the gospel of Christ in today’s world?

"What is a Cult?" Lesson 2 in the series on cults from January 13, 2008 by Dr. Richard Wells

First in the series of lectures on Cults by Dr. Richard Wells. Delivered at the evening service on January 6, 2008.

Speaker: Dr. Richard Wells
Date: January 6, 2008
Key Scripture: Isaiah 11:1-10

Taking it home . . .

UpReach: Read Is 11.1-10.  How might you use this text to explain the doctrine of the Trinity?

InReach: Look carefully at Is 11.4.  Why do you suppose Isaiah calls attention to “the poorâ€? and “the meek of the earth?â€?  What does this tell us about the ministry of Jesus the Messiah?

OutReach: Read Is 11.9.  What does this beautiful verse tell us about evangelism?
