Hearing God’s Word and Counsel
Believing Renewed Mind Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jesse 05/04/2014 05/04/2014
This teaching is about being careful regarding what we listen to in our daily lives and seeking counsel from spiritually sharp, trustworthy believers when we need help. We are instructed to keep our minds set on the powerful, true Word of God and not every new thing that comes across our screens. Gearing our minds to always wanting to hear the next new thing leads to idolatry. Clear the distractions away, receive the Word of God, renew your mind, and hear counsel.

Believing the Truth
Leadership and Service Hasbrouck Heights VFW (Hasbrouck Heights, NJ) Carr, Jesse 02/16/2014 02/16/2014
This teaching is about how God designed life so He could be with His family. He ordered life so that He is able to bless, help, provide, and lead us like a good father leads his family. True Christianity is not a religion or a philosophy, it is the way of a Father with His family. When we let God do His part as a Father to meet our needs, then we are not overly burdened and are able to serve. This order for life allows us to serve God and His people, even when its not convenient. We should be able to rearrange our plans if a need pops up. As an example, this teaching looks at Jesus Christ’s taking care of God’s people after the death of John the Baptist.

God’s Way vs. the Ways of the World
Believing Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jesse 06/25/2019 06/25/2019
God’s way works in the face of what the Adversary does in the world. Things work out when they are done God’s way. This teaching looks at a couple of examples of people getting delivered God’s way juxtaposed with a believer who tried to do things his own way. The believers in Acts didn’t make contingency plans if things didn’t work out the way they expected when they carried out God’s business. We sometimes shrink from believing for much smaller circumstances than what Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego faced. The Adversary has been luring people with comfort and “more” since the Garden of Eden. In the Old Testament, Gehazi had seen God do miracles time and time again yet he still tried to meet his own needs. We’ve also seen the impossible done by God. God is able to care for us, so we do not need to do things the world’s way. We are not defined by the riches of this world, and we should not be easily tricked. We are fully equipped by God. Let’s believe and renew our mind to doing God’s work, not men’s work.
