The Bible shows us that we all have been designed with a unique set of gifts that are meant to be used for a unique reason.  Mark is continuing his message about Maximum Living, exploring the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25:24-30, and making the point that while everyone may not have been given equal opportunities, we are all equally responsible for what we do have.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jesus often used parables and stories to teach very important lessons. In this message, Pastor Mark takes a look at one of those powerful parables from the book of Matthew, called the parable of the Talents. In the times of Jesus, a talent was a unit of measurement for precious metals like silver and gold. Pastor Mark tells the compelling truths about this parable of the Talents and about what we do with what God has given us.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A lot of people have God in their life … very few have God at the center of their life.  We’re Making God a Priority today on Bold Steps Weekend with Mark Jobe. A spiritual life in neutral means that eventually things are going to start to decline.  That’s exactly what happened to the people of Jerusalem in Nehemiah chapter 13 as spiritual coldness set in.

Today on Bold Steps Weekend with Pastor Mark Jobe … we’re considering the question, how hungry are you for God? When the desperate times end, do you continue trusting Him, or do you go back to business as usual?

That’s our topic as we continue our series in Nehemiah with a message called, Experiencing Grassroots Renewal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, Pastor Mark Jobe begins a new message in our Bold Steps Weekend series on Nehemiah and it’s titled, Experiencing Grassroots Renewal. We are in Nehemiah chapter 8 and we’ll see how God did a miraculous work in bringing 40,000 people together who were hungry for Him. In the massive rebuilding effort of Jerusalem, the walls were built and doors secure … however, it was more important that hearts were in the right before God.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sometimes it seems like the bigger the job, the easier it is to be distracted along the way!  The Old Testament character Nehemiah encountered this same phenomenon as work got underway rebuilding Jerusalem … which is our topic on Bold Steps Weekend.  We’ll see that when we attempt to work on weak areas in our lives, it’s almost guaranteed that we’re going to face spiritual distractions!  So, if you have your Bible handy, turn to Nehemiah chapter 6 … and let’s join Pastor Mark Jobe for his message titled, Keeping Focused in the Midst of Distraction.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The message is called, The Battle Inside the Wall.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Any military general will tell you that a good strategy is key to overcoming the enemy.  When it comes to moving forward with God in our spiritual lives, the same is true.  Opposition will come and weaknesses will be exposed.  Pastor Mark Jobe says that we need to protect those vulnerable areas while we’re working at our call, or it could come to a grinding stop.  On this edition of Bold Steps Weekend, we pick up where we left off last time in Nehemiah chapter 4 where we’ll continue learning solid principles in the rebuilding process.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let’s open our Bibles to Nehemiah chapter 2 as Pastor Mark Jobe leads us in the conclusion of the message titled … The Hand of God.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’ve heard it before … timing is everything! Nehemiah had a heavy burden on his soul to get up and do something for his people, but even with this urgent call, there was a patience about him. Pastor Mark Jobe says that for most of us, timing is difficult because we have to process ... we’re discerning at times, is this really what God wants us to do?…God opens up windows that we have to step through, if not, we can miss our timing. Our Bold Steps Weekend message is titled, The Hand of God … and to follow along in your Bible, turn to the book of Nehemiah, chapter 2.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We all have ruins in our life... areas of our life that have been broken down that we have not fixed and dealt with.

So much of life is about moving forward and taking that next step to get ahead.  But sometimes the only way forward … is by taking a few steps back. Even though we don’t usually want to talk about it, almost all of us have a few problems from our past that remain unsettled … areas of life that we simply try to avoid.  And in our current Bold Steps Weekend series called Unstuck, we’ve been following the story of Elijah in the book of First Kings … and the moment in his life where he tried to run from some serious problems.  Today’s message from Pastor Mark Jobe is titled, Walk Toward Your Unfinished Business.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the last Bold Steps Weekend program, Pastor Mark Jobe explained how certain trigger points in our life can cause us to panic, to falter in our thinking and begin living out of fear instead of faith.  And to illustrate this somber point, we’ve been following the story of Elijah that’s found in the book of First Kings.  We’re learning how the fears of this powerful prophet caused him to fall away from God’s will.  But the good news is, our thinking can be corrected, and the strength of our faith can be restored.  Today we continue to learn what it takes to ReThink Our Thinking.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Merry Christmas!  Welcome to the new Bold Steps Weekend with Pastor Mark Jobe. I can’t think of a better way to spend some time today talking about Immanuel … God with Us.  Not only did Jesus come as a baby to dwell among us almost two-thousand years ago … He continues to be with us today!  And now, we have the honor and privilege of sharing the hope that we have in God with others.  We have a Savior and King who is available 24/7 … no matter what life throws at us.  And He wants to remind us that nobody is beyond God’s reach.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The prophet Isaiah spoke about a “messiah” 700-years before His birth. His name is Jesus Christ. And He is the long-awaited Immanuel, which means, “God with Us”! What a lot of people don’t understand, is what theologians call the theophany--A manifestation of the pre-incarnate Christ. In other words, Jesus kept popping into the picture throughout the entire Old Testament. This is going be a powerful message as you realize that Jesus has been with us since the beginning. And this is a great message to share this weekend before Christmas.  So, if you have your Bible handy, let’s open them to Isaiah, chapter 7 for Pastor Mark Jobe and this edition of Bold Steps Weekend.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
