2024-11-2429 minCitylight Manayunk SermonsKeep Far From The Forbidden WomanAs we continue our journey through the book of Proverbs, this week we're blessed to hear from Pastor Mark as he unpacks Proverbs 7. He'll illuminate how "Satan plays the long game" and expound on the BIG IDEA: Keep far from the forbidden woman. HOW are we to do this? Here’s the answer: Marry wisdom (1-5) Don’t look for trouble (6-9) See through the lies (10-20) Know it will destroy you (21-23) Don’t start down the path (24-27).2024-11-1932 minCitylight Manayunk SermonsKeep Far From the Forbidden WomanFor more information visit citylightphilly.com

2024-10-2032 minCitylight Manayunk SermonsListen Attentively to Jesus’ WordsProverbs in particular and the Bible generally, which is Jesus’ word. Proverbs 4:4 - Let your heart hold fast my words. Proverbs 4:10 - Hear, my son, and accept my words. Proverbs 4:20 - My son, be attentive to my words. That brings us to the big idea of Proverbs 4: Listen attentively to Jesus’ words. Listen attentively to Jesus’ words. But why? Though the centrality of God’s word has fallen on hard times, why should we, as a church family, listen attentively to, keep on believing in, and build our lives on Jesus’ word, the Bible?

We’re continuing in the incentive mode that began last week: “Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding.” (Proverbs 3:13)Now, what does it mean to be blessed? 3:13 is the first time in the book of Proverbs that this word is used, and it could be briefly described as being “supremely happy.” The big ide...2024-10-1300 minCitylight Manayunk SermonsApply Wisdom to Your Life and Your Life Will Be Full of BlessingIn Proverbs 3, God, through the voice of a father mentoring his son, incentivizes all of us to apply wisdom to all of life. In Proverbs 2, the father told his son to seek wisdom like treasure because wisdom will protect you. In Proverbs 3, the father tells his son to apply wisdom because it will bless you. Proverbs 2 was defense, but Proverbs 3 is offense. That brings us to the big idea of our passage this morning: Apply wisdom to your life and your life will be full of blessing.

The passage provides three reasons to turn at wisdom's warning today. 1. Wisom is calling (1:20-22). 2. A storm is coming (1:24-32). 3.

When foolish friends tempt you, as Nancy Reagan said, “just say no.” In our complex world, how can we possibly do that?

The big idea of this famous story is that salvation is of the Lord and for everyone. Jonah’s adventures from a rough sea voyage, into the belly of a fish, and finally to the notoriously wicked city of Nineveh show us that every Christian has received the gospel message and is therefore a gospel messenger! Jonah shows us four ways to be messengers of the gospel: go where the Lord sends (1:1–3); rejoice that the Lord saves (2:5–10); speak what the Lord says (Jonah...2024-09-0200 minCitylight Manayunk SermonsSalvation is of the Lord and for everyone.For more information, visit citylightphilly.com
