The Price We Pay for Doubt

April 18, 2025

With Easter on our minds we will turn to Mark chapter fifteen beginning in verse thirty-three and into chapter sixteen. It’s there we’re given the historical account of the crucifixion, burial and resurrection of Jesus. The solid basis for our faith.

References: Mark 15 , Mark 16

A Study in the Book of Ruth

The book of Ruth is more than just a God ordained love story, although it is certainly that as well.  It reveals the extent of God’s kindness and grace. He accepted Ruth, once an outcast, into his chosen people, and went on to  honor her by  allowing King David and Jesus to be born of her lineage.  Pastor Thom explores the life of Ruth in his 13 message series entitled, Experience Hope in the Life of Ruth.  Request your copy today, on USB flash drive or CD, for a gift  of $25 or more.

In Ecclesiastes chapter three we are given insight into time and eternity. Last time we began a message entitled “the miracle is in the timing.”  And we were encouraged to make the most of our God given opportunities. For the reality of God and eternity and His mastery over time is hard to deny. We continue today’s lesson from Ecclesiastes chapter three picking up in verse eleven with pastor Thom seeking to instill a sense of urgency for “now is time.”

Pastor Thom is in a study of Ecclesiastes, and we’ll be in chapter two today.  Solomon is about to choose a hot-headed fool to succeed him to the throne.  Why would he do such a thing?  You’re about to find out on Study the Word.

Sex outside of marriage and pornography is applauded today, and portrayed as perfectly acceptable.  And many are seeking fulfillment in that realm, just as the man we’ll hear about today on Study the Word.  But what you may not realize is, when you have sex with someone there’s a blending of spirits that occurs.  That’s why God has designed it for the marriage relationship alone.  Pastor Thom Keller’s message today is based in Ecclesiastes two.

About Study the Word

Study the Word is a radio ministry of Calvary Chapel Lebanon, Pennsylvania. It features the teaching ministry of pastor Thom Keller.  As we go verse by verse through the Scriptures, our hearts desire is to encourage you to not only Study the Word, but seek to follow God and obey His Word.

About Pastor Thom Keller

Thom began teaching an inner-city Bible study in 1995. That love of teaching God’s word eventually led to the formation of Calvary Chapel Lebanon in October, 2001, with about 50 people meeting in an old hardware store. Our church ministry and philosophy centers on teaching God’s word chapter by chapter, verse by verse.

Prior to pastoring, Thom was president and general manager of Keller Brothers Ford, a third-generation family business that began in 1921.  After 8 years of bi-vocational ministry, in 2009, Thom sold the business and became a full-time pastor.

Thom and his wife, Sue, live near Schaefferstown. Thom and Sue enjoy snow skiing, mountain biking and motorcycle rides.  Thom has often said that he loves performing weddings because he loves being married!

Ted, pictured above is Sue’s brother who has lived with Thom and Sue since 2001.

“It has been an absolute joy to see the changes God is bringing about in the lives of individuals, marriages and families at Calvary Chapel. God’s word does not return void!”

Currently we have worship services Sunday morning at 8:00 AM, 9:30 AM and 11:00 AM at our church located at 740 Willow St.  Please introduce yourself when you stop by!
