Why should we trust the Bible?In Psalm 119, we see that Scripture is more than a collection of encouraging verses or ancient religious writings. It is the most remarkable, reliable, and relevant story ever told; 66 books written across generations, cultures, languages, and genres, all pointing toward one Savior: Jesus Christ.Whether you’ve never opened a Bible, you’ve struggled to understand it, or you’ve known Scripture for years but grown cold toward it, this message is an invitation to approach God’s Word differently.The goal isn’t simply to read the Bible more. It’s to know the God of the Bible, allow His Word to transform us, and share that truth with the people around us.Because when the Word of God moves in imperfect people, lives change.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona. We desire to engage culture, uphold truth and love people. In a world where life can be heavy and confusing, we want to cover the hard truths - with grace. This is difficulty and messy - and so are we - but the love of Jesus meets us in our mess.Our rhythm is to gather to worship on Sunday and then scatter during the week to love, live and lead together.We are imperfect people moved by the perfect love of Jesus.Come as you are. Experience His love.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Websitehttps://phoenixbiblechurch.comConnect with Phoenix Bible Churchhttps://phoenixbiblechurch.com/connectSocial Mediahttps://instagram.com/phxbiblechurchhttps://www.facebook.com/phxbiblechurchChapters:00:00 Bible Verse Comebacks01:00 How We Treat the Bible03:30 Growing in Our Relationship With Scripture05:40 From Skeptic to Pastor06:34 Psalm 119:1–807:30 Why the Bible?08:42 66 Books, One Savior11:08 Understanding the Old Testament12:59 Understanding the New Testament15:10 The Story of Scripture18:05 Jesus at the Center22:18 Can We Trust the Bible?23:36 Testing Ancient Manuscripts25:55 The Dead Sea Scrolls26:48 What About Biblical Variants?29:31 Evidence for Reliability32:06 Read It for Yourself33:16 Is the Bible Still Relevant?35:15 When the Bible Disagrees With You36:08 More Than “Read Your Bible”37:10 How Scripture Changed My Life38:42 A Fresh Start39:25 Learn the Bible in Community40:38 Where Do I Start?41:02 Closing Prayer

You weren’t created to follow Jesus alone.In Acts 2:42-47, the early church gives us a picture of what life with Jesus looks like: learning together, worshiping together, sharing life together, caring for one another, and carrying the gospel into the world.God formed us for relationship, but isolation, independence, distraction, and even church hurt can pull us away from the community we were made for.So who are your people? Who knows you, challenges you, prays for you, and walks with you?Maybe your next step is simple: Move to One.Sundays at 9:00AM + 10:30AMPhoenix Bible Church6060 N 7th Ave, Phoenix, AZPhoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

What are you moving toward?It’s possible to be incredibly busy, have a full schedule, and still not actually be going anywhere. It’s also possible to have a clear vision for your life, but for that vision to be shaped more by culture, success, politics, or comparison than by Jesus.On Vision Sunday, Pastor Tim reminds us that Jesus has already given His Church the mission: make disciples who make disciples.At Phoenix Bible Church, that looks like loving Jesus, living like Jesus, and leading others to Jesus. We are imperfect people moved by the perfect love of Jesus, and because He moved toward us first, we get to move toward Him and toward others.So what’s your next move?Maybe it’s joining a group. Serving on a team. Growing in generosity. Opening your home. Inviting someone to coffee. Or simply taking one faithful step toward Jesus.Don’t just attend church. Be part of what God is doing.Sundays at 9:00AM + 10:30AMPhoenix Bible Church6060 N 7th Ave, Phoenix, AZPhoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

What if the most important thing about your work isn’t what you do, but how you do it?Colossians 3:23 reminds us to work heartily as for the Lord. Whether you’re leading a company, changing diapers, studying for class, fixing cars, or filling out spreadsheets, God can use the work in front of you to impact the people around you.In this message from Everyday Faith, we look at three ways to approach our work as followers of Jesus:Serve well. Rest well. Finish well.Our careers are temporary. Jesus is eternal. Because of Him, even ordinary work can become an opportunity to love people, serve faithfully, and make an eternal impact.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

Work is good, but because of sin, work is also broken. So what do we do when our job is exhausting, frustrating, or just plain hard?In this week of Everyday Faith, we look at Ecclesiastes 2 and the rest of Scripture to ask three questions: Why is work hard? How do I navigate it? And should I stay or go?Jesus doesn’t just meet us on Sunday. He transforms how we work on Monday.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

How do you know God’s will for your work? Should you stay, leave, take the promotion, or start something new?Romans 12 shows us an important sequence: surrender, transformation, then discernment. God is more concerned with who you are becoming than simply where you are going.In this message, we look at God’s revealed will and five practical questions that can help us navigate our work with wisdom, community, obedience, and trust in Jesus.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

Whether you love your job, hate your job, or find your identity in your job, God has a bigger vision for your work.In the opening message of Everyday Faith, Pastor Tim explores what Scripture says about the purpose of work. Work existed before sin entered the world. It reveals the character of our creative God, serves the people around us, and can become a platform for the love of Jesus.Your classroom, office, home, jobsite, or ordinary daily routine is not separate from your faith. God has placed you there for His glory, the good of others, and the mission of His Kingdom.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

Every day, voices compete for our attention and trust. Politicians, business leaders, influencers, and even our own desires promise to lead us toward the good life. But Psalm 146 reminds us that every human leader is temporary. Their plans perish, and none of them can ultimately save us.God is different. He created all things, keeps His promises, cares for the vulnerable, and reigns forever. Through Jesus, the King of Kings came close to us, conquered sin and death, and invited us into a Kingdom that will never end.In this message from Psalm 146, discover what it means to stop carrying the weight of saving yourself and begin following the King who reigns forever.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

One moment, life can feel like a sturdy bridge—safe, predictable, and secure. The next, it can feel like an uncontrollable river carrying us toward the unknown.In Psalm 27, David shows us how to respond in both seasons. We do not find courage by gaining control, ignoring our pain, or pretending we have no questions. Courage grows when we remember that the Lord is our light, our salvation, and our stronghold. He is present on the bridge, in the river, and everywhere in between.In this message, we discover how intimacy with God confronts fear, why honest petitions deepen our relationship with Him, and what it means to wait for the Lord with strength and courage.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.

We often look to success, relationships, experiences, and changing circumstances to satisfy the deepest longings of our souls. But even the best things in life eventually leave us wanting more.In Psalm 63, David is fleeing for his life, yet his greatest desire is not simply for his circumstances to change. He thirsts for God. Through passionate prayer, public and private praise, and persistent trust, David shows us where lasting satisfaction is truly found.Lasting satisfaction is not found in our circumstances, but in our Savior.Phoenix Bible Church is a church in the heart of the city of Phoenix, Arizona.
