    Jim Elliot a missionary who was killed in South America in the late 50’s said: “He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep, to gain what he cannot lose.” We are to be sold out to the eternal things we cannot lose rather than selling out to the temporary things here that we cannot keep.

    In England there was a bartender. Every day people would come in to his bar and pour out their hearts to him. They would share their innermost sorrows with him.

    The tale is told of a soldier during the Civil War who simply could not make up his mind which side of the conflict he supported.

    A Church Is Not An Audience A sharp distinction ought to be made between a church and an audience. · An audience is a group of unrelated people drawn together by a short-lived attraction.

    Startling Statistics Only eight percent of the time since the beginning of recorded history has the world been entirely at peace. In over 3,100 years, only 286 have been warless and 8,000 treaties have been broken in this time. Jesus Himself tells us in Mt 24:6 6 And you will hear of wars and ...read more

    Contributed by Peter Bines on Jan 22, 2008
     | 1,514 views

    The Christian believer has to say – even in our multi-faith environment - that no other so-called Saviour will do! We need a sin-bearer. Can Mohammed be our sin-bearer; or Confucious, or Moses, or any other religious leader? No, only One who was both God and Man can bridge the great divide that our ...read more

    a) Ever see the movie Clue? Albert Einstein and his colleagues pass off a local garage mechanic as some surprise genius, coaching him so that he can give lectures on physics to gatherings of scholars (it was all a match-making scheme to get him hooked up with Einstein’s niece). Of course, it was so ...read more

    Indeed, the more sanctified the person is, the more conformed he is to the image of his Savior, the more he must recoil against every lack of conformity to the holiness of God. The deeper his apprehension of the majesty of God, the greater the intensity of his love to God, the more persistent his ...read more

    I remember in the Batman movie the Joker once said to Vickie Vail, "I may be smiling on the outside, but I am crying within." What about you today? Are you crying within? Are you in need of soul rest? Then why don’t you come to Jesus today? He will give you rest. He will give you internal peace. He ...read more

     | 940 views

    “Left to ourselves, we seek our own. Movie stars marry movie stars. Doctors seek out doctors. Middle-classers seek out middle-classers. Bikers seek bikers. But when Christ comes, that changes.

    A church in New York in 1963 closed down and someone stuck a sign on the outside of the front door: “Gone out of business.

    Quote from Anne Lamott "I’ve seen prayers answered. But often, in my experience, if you get what you pray for, you’ve really shortchanged yourself." What an adventure prayer is!

    Ron Jon Surf Shop has a commercial they used to run all the time.

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 5, 2008
     | 1,570 views

    The Truth is that God, who needs nothing, wants us. The Truth is that we–all of us–have discounted that divine presence and desire, perhaps thinking it’s too good to be true. And so, like Peter, the Rock, we turn to God when He invites us to act in goodness, truth and beauty. We listen to Him ...read more

    "We are not to be isolated but insulated," said Vance Havner, "moving in the midst of evil but untouched by it." Separation is contact with contamination. Jesus was "holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners" (Heb. 7:26), yet He was "a friend of tax collectors and sinners" (Luke ...read more
