This bible study and devotion is to explore the biblical understanding of spiritual apathy, examining its causes, consequences, and the path to renewal.

Introduction: Defining spiritual apathy

Spiritual apathy is a subtle and dangerous condition characterized by indifference, laziness, and a lack of zeal toward the things of God. It is not a sudden rejection of faith, but a slow, quiet drift away from an engaged relationship with Christ. A person experiencing spiritual apa

Silence has its place vs Silence can be a sin

Silence can become a practice of humility. Life seems to require our performance but God doesn’t need us to do anything. He can make the rocks cry out in praise to Him if we don’t. We all should hope that God never has to do that because we failed to praise Him. Being silent does have its place. We sometimes should learn to listen and be slow to speak, the Bible tells us this, James 1:19-20. Our words can build up or tear down w

What is our responsibility after we get saved? Once saved we do not become perfect. We never were and we never will be. We have all made mistakes and some of us have made what we would consider huge mistakes. However, to God sin is sin James 2:10. By the grace of God we have been forgiven when Jesus touched our hearts, convicted us of our sins and we confessed our sins to God and with a humbled heart we then asked for forgiveness and invited Jesus to come into our heart an

Athaliah and Jehosheba

This study of the Bible we are looking at two women in the southern area of Israel known as Judah.  One was out to destroy the line of Judah and the other to preserve it.  Athelia was as bad a queen as any fairy tale could produce.  People feared her for her ruthlessness in killing her own grandsons and promoting Baal worship just like her parents Ahab and Jezebel. Athalia married the king of Judah thereby uniting the north and south. When the king di

“There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors.” 1 John 4:18

THROW OUT YOUR FEARS

When you were young and said a bad word, your parents may have threatened to wash your mouth out with soap. Well, if FEAR is a DIRTY Word, then FAITH in God’s UNCONDITIONAL LOVE for you is like soap! Too many put the cart before the horse. We believe that God accepts us based on the degree of our love for Him rather than on the

Title:

 A Prayer for the Betrayed

Scripture: Psalm 55:22: "Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken".

Reflection:

Psalm 55 is a raw and honest portrait of King David's anguish during a time of immense betrayal and fear. He laments the pain inflicted by his enemies but reserves his deepest grief for a companion, a close friend with whom he once shared "sweet fellowship" and worshiped "at the house of God" (Psalm 55:13–14)

"Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle. He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.” Psalm 144:2. 

As a Christian do you have times in your life that make you feel like you’re fighting a war rather than feeling all warm and fuzzy?  Most of us can probably relate. We sometimes feel like we are in a battle spiritually and the truth is that we do

“To serve or be served" studying God's word in Mark 10:45 we are told that Jesus, the son of God didn't come to be served but came to serve and minister to others.  Think about that..... "For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." Mark 10:45. Jesus, our Lord God gives us a loving example of servitude to others and we too must remember to live our life in servitude to others. From healing the sick and po

What does the Bible say about etiquette / manners?

Etiquette is a set of specific rules designed to ensure polite behavior in a group or within a culture. When someone knows and follows the expected rules for behavior, we say that person has good etiquette or good manners. Part of being properly socialized within a culture is learning what that culture considers acceptable behavior in dining, conversation, and attire. Proper etiquette can vary from culture to culture, so it

“The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” 

Romans 8:18

What this verse is telling us is simple. Yes, we will suffer in the present but we will be rewarded for it. David Livingstone was a Scottish physician, a Christian missionary out of the London missionary society and an explorer of Africa. In 1857 he gave a speech at Cambridge University: “People talk of the sacrifice I have made in spending so much o

“Enjoy life with the wife you love all the days of your fleeting life which has been given to you under the sun” Ecclesiastes 9:9 CSB

Contentment is the key to a happy marriage. When asked what makes us contented in marriage, we inevitably point to things our partner does, or is, that please us. When asked what makes us discontented, we indicate what they do, or are, that displeases us. We focus on what’s right or wrong about them, making ourselves happy or unhappy. But con

Background To fully appreciate Isaiah 30:18, it is important to understand the context of the chapter. The people of Judah were being threatened by the Assyrian empire. Instead of trusting in God for deliverance, they fo

"Walking worthy" Ephesians 4:1-3  “I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”

The word worthy gives us the idea that we must “match up” or meet certain standards with our actions and our words. Our appearance and actions on the outside should match the conv
