DISCIPLINE IN FARMING
It is like farmer who has replaced farming with watching programs about farming. Now the fields are overgrown, barn is falling down, the fences are down and cows are in the road.
Such is the condition of most Christian lives. The

Many of you I’m sure remember Charles Barkley, the NBA Basketball star who didn’t want people watching him too closely. People were disappointed with his actions and attitude on and off the court and challenged him to be a better role model. His response was basically, “Hey, I’m a basketball

INFLUENCE
There are little eyes upon you.
And they’re watching night and day;
There are little ears that quickly
Take in every word you say;

And a little boy who’s dreaming
Of the day he’ll be like you.
You’re the little fellow’s

The job of the church is not to impact the church, but to impact the world.
It’s like a huddle in a football game.
67,000 people don’t pay $50.00 a ticket to watch the World champion Giants huddle.
What if you went to a Giants game and for 2 ½ hours you watched 11 men stand in a circle and

Most of you probably know that the show "Friends" is one of the most watched sitcoms on TV. I have watched it many times, and some of the episodes are pretty funny. But, the show is also very revealing about the way our society and also many people in the church see friendships today.

[Wrong Side of the Boat]
People who refuse to get involved in problems of their community are like the two shipwrecked men in a lifeboat.
From their end of the boat, the pair watched as those at the other end bailed frantically to keep the boat

THE POSITION OF PRAYER
In Texas, when a cold air mass moves down from Canada, people sometimes refer to it as a "Blue Northern," and it makes its presence felt! You can feel the wind blow as the high pressure cold air rushes into the warmer area of lower pressure. The greater the difference in
