How To Be Joyful All The Time

Lady in mountain joy

Paul himself was a great example of what it looks like to rejoice no matter what. He remained joyful when was persecuted, slandered, falsely accused, mistreated, arrested, imprisoned, and even when he was facing the threat of martyrdom for the cause of Christ. Nothing could steal his joy because he was convinced that all the difficult circumstances he experienced ultimatel...

Guard The Gate

When I was young, I was really into sports. The walls in my bedroom were plastered with pennants from every NFL and MLB team. I never missed a Boston Red Sox game or a Dallas Cowboys game on TV and would literally cry whenever they lost. I had a monthly subscription to Sports Illustrated and would read every issue from cover to cover. I'll never forget the day I came home ...

When Life Throws You A Curve

WHEN LIFE THROWS YOU A CURVE

God’s purpose and plan for our lives are frequently beyond our ability to understand. Little did Job know that behind the scenes God was teaching Satan a much-needed lesson; that when a true believer faces trials they respond with persevering faith. The real question regarding Job is not “why did Job suffer” but “why did Job worship God.” ...

It's Friday..... But Sunday's Coming

S. M. Lockridge, a Texas-born preacher was well-known for his sermon It’s Friday…But Sunday’s Coming!

I’m sure by now you've all heard about the latest executive order Governor Abbott issued requiring everyone in the state of Texas 10 years old and up to wear a face-covering in public places. Thankfully, he has once again graciously provided an exemption for churches. You do not have to wear a mask at church but wearing one is strongly encouraged so let your conscience b...

LBC Reopening Update

200405 Weekly Updates Blog Graphic.001

By God’s grace, since reopening our weekly services/ministries we know of no one in our church who has tested positive for COVID-19. Nevertheless, in light of the recent surge of cases in Texas, especially in our neighboring counties, and our Governor pausing his original reopening plan, we want to be as wise and diligent as possible in continuing to follow the recommend...

Does God Believe In Atheists?

191023 Athiest.001

C.S. Lewis discovered that no matter how hard you try it is impossible to escape God. You can deny Him, ignore Him, or explain Him away, but you can’t get away from Him. He’s everywhere. No matter where we turn we are confronted with the reality of His being. God has made it abundantly clear that He is there by revealing Himself in four unmistakable ways....

Praying for Revival

Praying Dude

We often hear Christians urging other Christians to pray for revival or a spiritual awakening in our country, particularly in light of its moral decline. While God does command us in His Word to pray for our nation and its leaders (cf. 1 Tim. 2:1-2), all the references in the Bible to "revival" are in the context of God's people both individually and corporately (cf. 2 Chr...

At the end of the summer, it’s not not uncommon for Christians to feel distant from the Lord and dry in their soul. During the summer months we typically get out of our normal schedules and routines, we go on vacations, things are generally more laid back, and it’s easy to become lazy. This naturally affects our spiritual disciplines. Our time spent communing with God ...
