It’s easy to worship God all day long…
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
My friend was in the military and experienced a failed mission years ago. He now suffers from PTSD and tremendous guilt. Can you offer any help to him? What does it really mean to offer your body as a “living sacrifice” to God (Romans 12:1)? And how is it worship?

“Knowing God’s will? Praying with right motives?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
A person is being consistently critical of my children. How should I approach this situation? What is the main thing God wants us to know and do in the Christian life? You inspired me to share Christ with someone! Who was Ishmael? Who were his descendants? What’s the big takeaway? What is the doctrine of Balaam that believers are warned about in Revelation 2? What are your thoughts on finding God‘s will for your life? How can I know that I’m praying (and living) with the right motives?

Perfect Love: Slamming the Door on Fear - Part 2
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
What if perfect love already won? Fear feeds on chaos. When you’re unsure where you stand with God—when the message is mixed, blurry, or conditional—fear moves right in and makes itself at home. Fear needs uncertainty to survive. That’s why the Gospel is the remedy for fear. In this message, I talk about how the clarity of what Jesus finished silences the fear. If you’ve been living in spiritual fog instead of confidence… If fear has been whispering because clarity has been missing… This message will reset everything for you. Discussion Questions: React to this statement: We...

Head coverings, praying for enemies, and worldliness…
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
What does the Corinthian passage about head coverings, women and men really mean? Do we need to be praying for our enemies? Who exactly are they? What does it mean to be worldly? How do we avoid being worldly?

“Why do Catholics believe wine becomes blood?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
How do I help my Catholic friend who believes every communion becomes the body and blood of Christ? What is the difference between your soul and your spirit? My mother died two weeks ago, and I wonder if she is already with God or has to wait. Can you explain that?

“Why forgive those who hurt you?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
I know someone who was hurt deeply by an abusive church experience. I shared with them the message of forgiveness found in Matthew 18. But I wonder if you have any other thoughts on forgiving people who have hurt you? A lady at my church keeps telling me that the Holy Spirit has new messages for me. She is scaring me, but at the same time, I wonder if I’m missing out on hearing from God! How do I keep my young children interested in Jesus?

“How can I share Christ with him?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
I’m dating a man who has a terrible temper and lashes out at me, then apologizes, then does it again. What are your thoughts? How do I share Jesus with my coworker who is from Syria? I feel like I’ve fallen away from God, and I’m afraid He’s going to tell me to depart from Him. Can you help?

“We carry a treasure within us!”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
My friend says Israel is the light, and she is really into Zohar. Can you help me with what I can say to her? Can you expound on the adventure of growing in grace? I’m beginning to see it’s not about pressure or measuring myself. Can you talk about that?

Agape love? Hyper-grace? Biblical or dangerous?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Can true believers still struggle with fear? How do God’s love and God’s grace relate to each other? Why does everyone seem to agree about love but then divide over grace? Is the teaching about abiding in John 15 really about losing salvation? Why does Romans say the gifts and the calling of God are “without repentance”? This gospel is so incredible! I just want my friends to get it, and it’s frustrating when they don’t!

Perfect Love: Slamming the Door on Fear
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Are you trying to love God… or letting Him love you? What if fear isn’t something you overcome by effort? In this message, I tackle the lie many Christians carry: that fear is normal, that God is distant, and that courage comes from trying harder instead of trusting God’s love. Scripture says something drastically different: perfect love casts out fear. Not later, not eventually, not if you do everything right—now. This is about a reality so solid it slams the door on fear because there’s no room left for it. Check this out and discover how God’s perfect love drives out fear....
info_outlineAre you ready to dive deep where others merely wade? In this next message in our “Forever in His Presence” series, we’re slicing through the fog of misinformation and reclaiming the truth about Jesus – His divinity, His humanity, His everything!
In a culture that often prizes openness to the point of absurdity, we stand firm. Are you prepared to be labeled “close-minded”? Good. Because when it comes to the truth about Jesus, we believers are as immovable as mountains.
Plus, you’ll discover what it truly means to “live through Him.” It’s all about His scandalous love for us, not our feeble attempts at “loving Him more.” And when we love each other the way He loves us? That’s when God becomes visible.
Tune in to this latest message and arm yourself with truth!
Discussion Questions:
- Read verses 1-3. What is the “antichrist” teaching that John mentions? And why is the truth important in this regard?
- Read verses 4-6 and react to this statement: There is absolute truth about Jesus, and we can be “close minded” about it if we know Him.
- Read verses 7-8. What is the main mark of knowing God? Why is this the case?
- Read verse 9. What does it mean to “live through Him”?

- Read verse 13. In what way does this help to clarify the meaning of “abide”? Can you know that you abide in Him? If so, how?
- Read verse 14. How do verses like this (and John 3:16) show the fallacy of “limited atonement” – the false idea that Jesus only died for individuals pre-selected by God?
