The document discusses the concepts of the "Rabble" and the "Humble" based on passages from the book of Numbers. The Rabble are described as those who take God's blessings gladly but always demand more and have allegiance to God based on being entertained and obeyed. In contrast, the Humble recognize God's blessings, follow his ways even when difficult, and have commitment to God based on what he has already done for them. The document encourages the reader to commit to daily prayer and Bible reading to move from fighting against God to giving him control.
We are not alone in this universe. The Bible talks of other kinds of beings that occupy the same space that we do. These ancient beings are unseen and powerful, and they want to destroy us. These evil beings are masters of temptation and will do whatever they can to seduce us into leaving the narrow path that pleases God, and joining in their path of destruction.
The Prince that rules these dark minions is also spoke of in the Bible. He is the Devil. A fallen angel who leads his forces against all goodness and light. As crazy and unbelievable as this sounds, our lives are being played out in the midst of a cosmic battle that effects us in ways we cannot fully understand.

Teaching Outline: It wasn’t always this way. Once the first humans walked with God and did not desire sin they way we do today. But now our very nature is against God. Our flesh want to sin, and we do not need any external pressure or demonic influence to make us do it.
Something is wrong inside of us. Though God desires for us to live the best kind of life full of beauty and good, our desires lead us astray. Like a starving man hungers for bread, our fallen nature hungers for sin. Even though we know it is wrong we long for the promised treasures of sin. Even though we know it will hurt us in the end, often we do not say no. Like an addict we are hooked.

Sierra is extraordinarily faithful...
Sierra Is really serious about God and her faith. She is extraordinarily serious in fact. So serious that she is a little prone to being judgmental. She would gladly give Jesus her life, so long as it did not mean enduring life among the sinners.
Growing up in a good church and learning from an early age of God’s love and the life that He wants everyone to live, Sierra has doubt which path she wants to live on. But while her love for God is strong, her understanding of others is still forming. To her, she doesn’t get why people would choose anything else. Her patience and respect for sinful people is pretty thin, until the day she made on E.Z. mistake...
"For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."

Hero 3: (Skitz Story) The Good We Ought...Brandon Brown
Skitz was failing as a friend. For some reason he had changed and had not bothered to give his friends the memo. They looked in at his life and wanted to be part of it, but he did not know how to invite them in.
We are more blessed than we realize.
It has become a cliche that we all accept, but don’t really do anything about. Especially as adults we are burned out on need. We are so accustomed to seeing the adds with starving children on TV and hearing about it on the news that we have just accepted it as part of life. Something that we have no real chance to change.
While that is true, it is not true enough. There is no way any of us, even in the richest country in the world, could help everyone, but we could certainly help someone.
What is amazing very year we go to Mexico is that students do not have the moral shielding that adults do. When they see poverty, they don’t justify their wealth, they just give it away. They throw the little they have at those who need it, and run to get more.
They are not worried about the practicality, or the sustainability of their efforts, they are just lost in a moment of total compassion. I wonder if the world would be a better place if we could all learn to be so irresponsibly compassionate.

Nobody can save the day for everyone, but almost everyone can help someone.
The Problem isn’t our lack of ability, it is our lack of effort. All around us people struggle and hurt, yet we do not engage. We hold back and wait to see what happens. The end of this process is that we become spectators to the painful problems of others as if we have no part in the outcome.
But we do.
We have the ability to help people, nearly every day.
We have a choice. Will we help others around us, or will we keep our abilities for ourselves.
Ben is extraordinary in many ways...
Blessed by the gods of puberty Ben is the antithesis of middle school awkwardness. He is unusually confident and in control, light years ahead of his class developmentally. His confidence has been reinforced by his recent interactions with girls. He is bright, gifted, articulate, funny, and in many ways he is achieving popularity effortlessly. But there is a cost.
Ben’s drive to explore his new “popular” life has led him to many places once unimagined. Ben grew up in a good Christian home, but His newfound success with the ladies has led him to put his faith and values on hold. While some people ride the fence, Ben has jumped it entirely. He has traded faith and God, for pleasure and popularity. Ben is not the alone.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.

at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons,
leeks, onions and garlic. 6 But now we have
