So What?

Lon Solomon

April 17, 2026

The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ is the King of the universe, and as followers of Christ, we are called to surrender to His kingship and lordship in every area of our lives. This means presenting our bodies as living sacrifices, yielding control to God, and seeking to bring our lives into conformity to the way the Bible tells us we're supposed to live. By doing so, we can experience the blessings and honor of God, and become the kind of people He is excited to use and bless. [... more]

Finding True Hope Beyond the Prosperity Gospel with John Cortines

Scripture calls us to anchor our hope in Christ, trusting him in both abundance and hardship, rather than measuring God's love by our circumstances. The prosperity gospel distorts biblical truth, making health and wealth a measuring stick for spiritual success. Faithful believers have walked through both abundance and hardship, and scripture shows us that faithful giving is an act of worship and thankfulness to God, not a formula to get results in our life.

The Principle of Worship-Handling Money God's Way-Life of Paul Part 36

When we give to God, it's not just about supporting a church or a cause, but about worshiping Him and telling Him that He's number one in our life. The Bible teaches us that giving is a form of spiritual worship, and that it's not just about the amount we give, but about the proportion of our income that we give. We need to give sacrificially, not just out of duty or obligation, but out of love and gratitude for what God has done for us. [... more]
