REFUGE KENOSHA

THE POWER OF OUR WORDS // James 3:1-12

Our speech can be either life-giving or completely destructive. The question for us today is: What story are the words of your life going to tell? This week, Refuge Elder Mark Lehmann will be challenging us in James 3:1-12.

BOLD FREEDOM // Acts 4

What does your life proclaim? Does the way you live indicate that you’ve been dominantly influenced by Jesus, or by someone or something else? Today, guest preacher Caleb Valentine from Christ The King Church in Kenosha, will be looking at the story of Peter and John’s standing before the governing authorities in Acts chapter 4.

THE HIDDEN BLESSINGS OF LIFE'S TRIALS // Psalm 18

What did King David learn about God through the various trials that he faced? Today, guest preacher Steve Miller from Christ The King Church in Kenosha will share about the hidden blessing of life’s trials as he takes us through Psalm 18.

LEARNING CONTENTMENT // Philippians 4:10-23

The question for you today is: are you content? If not, how do you get there? What is true contentment? Today, as we look at Philippians 4:10-23, the Apostle Paul will show us what true contentment is and how we can attain it.

PEACE AND YOUR THOUGHT LIFE // Philippians 4:8-9

Today, we are in Philippians 4:8-9, and we are going to look at how the Bible gives us instructions on how we are to THINK. We often forget that the Bible tells us how to use our thought life, but it has much to say. Further, we will see how the peace that God provides is different from the peace people often run after. 

THE PATH OF PEACE // Philippians 4:2-7

How do you find peace in the Lord? It's such an overwhelming question, yet the Bible has some clear direction on how you can find it. As we look at Philippians 4:2-7, we will find that peace is a path, not a destination.

CITIZENS AND ENEMIES // Philippians 3:17-4:1

We all are the products of examples that have gone before us. The Apostle Paul encouraged the church in Philippi to imitate his example and the example of other godly leaders. However, his reason may catch us off guard; it is because there are real enemies that desire to steer people away from the gospel of Jesus Christ. How are we to stand firm in turbulent cultural times? Today, we look at Philippians 3:17-4:1.

FACE FORWARD // Philippians 3:12-16

The past can be a killer. We can become defeated when thinking about our past failures…in an equally destructive way, we can become complacent when we remember our past successes. How is our relationship with our past supposed to function? As we look at Philippians 3:12-16, we will be encouraged to face forward, and strive to know Christ today.

BREAKING DOWN FALSE REALITIES // Philippians 3:1-11

We live in an era where it is seen as a virtue to question everything. This isn’t always bad, but reality is seeming to become more and more foggy. Today, as we study through Philippians 3:1-11, we are going to see how fostering a relationship with Jesus Christ breaks down many of the false realities that we are tempted to embrace in this life.

BECOMING MORE // Philippians 2:19-30

How do we stay focused on our calling to love God and love others while living in the age of distraction? How do we rise to become the people that Christ has called us to be when our minds are in a constant battle of focus? Today, as we look through Philippians 2:19-30, we will look at two examples of focused Christianity and see that as we allow ourselves to be changed by Christ, our focus in life gets clearer.
