Hidden Heroes: Asenath, Matriarch in the Faith

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/09/05

by David Chadwick Hidden heroes are threaded throughout the Bible. Good guys and bad guys that God uses to accomplish his purposes in the world. It’s one of the things that I love most about the Lord. He is able to take even the worst of situations and use them for good (Romans 8:28). Asenath. Our hidden hero for today. She is Joseph’s wife, the daughter of the Egyptian priest Potiphera. She is also the mother of Joseph’s two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. She is only mentioned three times in the Bible

2024/08/30

by David Chadwick We are wrapping up our journey of learning how to pray. Each day, you have been given a different key to open a new door that you may have never opened before in your prayer life. This week, we have focused on the Lord’s Prayer. Jesus taught his disciples how to pray in Matthew 6:9-13. We are going line by line, using what he taught his disciples to teach us. Here is your last key: “And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you away

Keys to a Powerful Prayer Life: How Jesus Prayed

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/08/26

by David Chadwick We are continuing to learn how to pray. The Lord’s Prayer is the guide that Jesus gave his disciples when they asked him how to pray (Matthew 6:9-13). It will help guide us, too. Each line is another key for how to unlock spiritual doors and enter into the presence of our Daddy in heaven through prayer. “Your kingdom come, your will be done. On earth as it is in heaven.” Here is your key for today. Ask the Holy Spirit to bring to your mind anything and everything that exists here

Hindrances to Prayer: Unbelief

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/08/13

by Marilynn Chadwick But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind (James 1:6 NIV). Another hindrance to prayer is unbelief. Put another way, if we don’t believe we won’t be able to experience all God has for us through prayer. “Believing” is the very currency of God’s kingdom. It’s only by grace through faith that we’re saved in the first place (Ephesians 2:8). The one who doubts, writes James, “should not expect

Hindrances to Prayer: Unforgiveness

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/08/12

by Marilynn Chadwick Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors (Matthew 6:11-12 ESV). Do you ever wonder what it was like to be one of the twelve disciples? Just imagine. They walked and talked with Jesus, learned from his wisdom, and enjoyed his close friendship for three years. They saw him heal the sick, cast out demons, and raise the dead. And yet, the only thing these disciples ever asked Jesus to teach them was how to pray. “Lord, teach us

Bad Guys of the Bible: Ishmael, Child of the Flesh

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/08/09

by David Chadwick We are going to wrap up the bad guys of the Bible this week with Ishmael. You will find his story in Genesis 15 and 16. He was the firstborn son of Abraham. If you remember biblical history, because of Sarah’s impatience and unbelief that God would fulfill his promise of bringing her a child, she let Abraham sleep with her servant, Hagar. From that act, Ishmael was conceived. Ishmael was not the child of promise. His conception, through Abraham and Hagar, was forced and coerced

Bad Guys of the Bible: Ahithophel, From Friend to Foe

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/08/06

by David Chadwick God’s story is the greatest story ever told. Ups and downs. Twists and turns. Good guys and bad guys. It all makes for a wonderful storyline that points directly to the grace and mercy of Jesus. Many bad guys are highlighted in God’s Word and are obstacles to the victories God ultimately accomplishes. Today’s bad guy is Ahithophel. Ahithophel was originally a close confidant and trusted advisor of King David. David relied on him for wise counsel and insight into difficult

Bad Guys of the Bible: Hymenaeus, Handed Over to Satan

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/08/05

by David Chadwick The Bible is full of people, great and small, young and old, who God used to carry out his story. And he is still using people like you and me today! Throughout his story, there were many bad guys who rose up to oppose God’s plan. We are continuing to take a look at some of the bad guys of the Bible. This week, we are going to look at five more bad guys. Hymenaeus is today’s bad guy. He is only talked about twice in the Bible. Mentioned alongside Alexander the Coppersmith in 1

Bad Guys of the Bible: King Manasseh, Rebelled from...

by David Chadwick God’s story is the best story! With Jesus Christ as the ultimate hero and Satan as the ultimate villain, God’s story is full of excitement, love, and adventure. The story of God is the ultimate rescue mission. Many heroes, big and small, played significant roles in God’s story. There were also villains. Bad guys who tried to thwart God’s plans. We’ve been taking an in depth look at both kinds of people over the last couple weeks. Our final bad guy this week is King Manasseh. You’ll

Bad Guys of the Bible: Judas

2024/07/26

by David Chadwick God has written the greatest story ever told. Jesus Christ is the ultimate hero and Satan is the ultimate villain in God’s story. Within the Bible, there are countless other heroes, big and small, who help advance God’s mission in the earth. There are also villains. Judas is today’s bad guy. With a significant role in the crucifixion of Jesus, he is a well-known villain in God’s story. One of the original 12 disciples, chosen by Jesus, Judas could have been from the Judean city of

Bad Guys of the Bible: The 10 Spies

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/07/19

by David Chadwick Good guys and bad guys are in every good story. A compelling plot has twists and turns and God’s story is full of both! God never shies away from showing us the good, bad and ugly of characters in his story. I believe the authenticity of Scripture is part of how he teaches us his best lessons! The 10 spies of Numbers 13:25-14:10 are today’s bad guys. Let me tell you their story. The Israelites had been moving from Egypt to the edge of the land God wanted them to possess as their

Bad Guys of the Bible: Absalom

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/07/18

by David Chadwick Did you know that every great story has heroes and villains? Good guys and bad guys. Those who are in the story to accomplish the goals of the story line and those who are there to resist them. Well, Absalom is definitely another one of the bad guys of the Bible. You will find his story in 2 Samuel 13-19. One of David’s sons, Absalom was described as the best-looking man in all the land (2 Samuel 14:25). He had looks, charm, and leadership abilities. His long-flowing, golden hair

Bad Guys of the Bible: Nadab and Abihu

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/07/16

by David Chadwick Hidden heroes and blatant villains! The Bible is full of both. Over the next two weeks we are taking a look at some of my top biblical bad guys. Nadab and Abihu. You’ll find their story in Leviticus 10. They were the sons of Aaron. As you read their story, you’ll learn that Nadab and Abihu had consumed too much alcohol and it appeared they were drunk when they did something horrible. What was it? They decided to bring “strange fire” to create incense in worship in the Tabernacle

Bad Guys of the Bible: Korah

by David Chadwick Every good story has a hero and a villain. We have already looked at many hidden heroes in the Bible as well as some unlikely heroes. Over the next couple of weeks, we are going to look at some of the bad guys of the Bible and the chaos that ensued in God's story. These are people who lacked integrity and brought trouble to anyone and anything in their paths. Let’s start with Korah. His story is found in Number 16:1-40. You might remember that I chose the sons of Korah as some of

Unlikely Heroes: A Tough and Tender Warrior

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/07/11

by Marilynn Chadwick One of the most inspiring “real life” women of valor I have ever known was Barbara Brewton Cameron. This vibrant and joyful woman with an easy laugh and a giant heart was a powerful leader in her community. She became a dear friend, mentor, and role model. During our fifteen-year friendship, Barbara opened my eyes to the powerful impact that one ordinary woman can have on her family, her community, and an entire city. Years before I met Barbara, her husband had been gunned down

Unlikely Heroes: The Ragpicker's Wife

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/07/10

by Marilynn Chadwick Men, women, and children of all ages squeezed into the patchwork tent that was both home and church for Pastor Raju and his family. David and I were traveling through this remote slum village in India to see the work of church planters like Raju. Raju was a ragpicker by trade. Daily, he sifted through the nearby garbage dump to find rags, plastic, bits of this-and-that to sell. It looked as if Raju had used some of “this-and-that” to construct his tent which, though humble, was

Hidden Heroes: Asaph

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/07/02

by David Chadwick Asaph is our next hidden hero. His name means “gatherer of the people.” Keep that in mind as I tell you his story. We find a small reference to Asaph in 1 Chronicles 6:39. But many of you may wonder why that would give him heroic importance in my book. Have any of you ever read this verse? “The Mighty One, God the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting” (Psalm 50:1). Or this one? “Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth

Hidden Heroes: Rhoda

2024/07/01

by David Chadwick Hidden heroes. The BIble is full of them. Men and women who may not be front and center, but carried significant impact historically. Today’s hero is named Rhoda. Did you even know there was a character in the Bible named Rhoda? Most do not! Let me tell you about her. Her story is found in Acts 12. She was a servant girl who, we think, lived in the home of John Mark and his mother, Mary. Their home was a central point of activity in the early church in Jerusalem and probably where

Hidden Heroes: Mary, Unlikely Mother of God

A Moment of Hope ·

2024/06/28

by Marilynn Chadwick “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled” (Luke 1:38 NIV). For centuries, Jewish women throughout ancient Israel wondered who would be given the glorious honor of giving birth to the long-awaited Messiah. No one could have imagined a young peasant teenager named Mary would be the chosen vessel for God to enter earthly history—God in human flesh. The angel Gabriel visited this ordinary young teen in the unlikely town of Nazareth with astounding
