  • Follow The Instructions

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 13, 2013
     | 10,562 views

    Follow the instructions of Jesus by praying "The Lord's Prayer" with shameless audacity!

    Instructions. We have all, at some point in time, wrestled with following the instructions. It may be for a home improvement project, piecing together a pressboard bookshelf, or reading down the side of a box learning how to prepare that particular side-dish for supper. Instructions are an ...read more

  • The Better Part

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jul 21, 2013
     | 4,220 views

    Just like a rip-current in the ocean can pull us away from shore, we must deepen our relationship with Jesus so that the things of this world do not pull us away from God.

    We hear the stories every summer about people who are enjoying a time at the beach only to end up getting caught in the strong grasp of a rip current. These strong channels of water in the water can drag swimmers away from the shore with alarming speed and strength. The same is true for a ...read more

  • The Kingdom Is Near

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jul 6, 2013
     | 4,198 views

    Our priority is living in preparation for the coming Kingdom of God.

    When it comes to long and exhaustive work, a business trip or even working through lunch, we look forward to hearing the whistle blow, signaling the end of our work day so we can finally go home. The same can be said for the time we spend here for our deployment. Spending nine months to one-year ...read more

  • Committed To Following Jesus

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 30, 2013
     | 7,497 views

    Above all, being a Christian requires us to make discipleship our highest priority.

    I must confess that not too many billboards catch my attention enough to want to read them. However, one finally did capture it and greatly warmed my heart. It was a recruiting poster for the Marine Corps. On the plaqured, it simply said, “We don’t take applications, only ...read more

  • Would You Ask Jesus To Leave?

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 23, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,597 views

    When we cling to and refuse to forsake sin, habits, and less than admirable behavior, we are asking Jesus to leave us. Jesus wants to "cast out" those behaviors in our life if we'll let him.

    If you are familiar with “The Andy Griffith” show, you may remember the loveable character named Otis. He was well known around town as being “the town drunk.” He was harmless and seemed to be more of a town mascot. However, this was not the case in our story in Luke. ...read more

  • Becoming Extinct

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 15, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,029 views

    As a Christian, we must strive to allow our earthly nature to become extinct.

    What would you say the following list of items have in common? The Yellow pages. Movie rental stores. Dial-up internet service. The VCR and telephone answering machines. If you guessed “things going extinct” then you would be correct. Much like the dodo bird, dinosaurs and the ...read more

  • Brought Back To Life

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 9, 2013
     | 9,439 views

    If we will have faith, Jesus can resurrect areas of our life we have written off as dead, gone, over, or impossible.

    First, there was the agony of Jairus over his young daughter. Then Mary and Martha mourn for their brother Lazarus. These people all shared something in common. They dealt with the unexpected Death of a family member. In fact, both situations had Jesus at the center of attention. In both cases, ...read more

  • Worthy To Approach Jesus

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 2, 2013
     | 4,554 views

    Unlike the Centurion, we can know for sure that we are worthy to come to Jesus.

    Worthiness. We have all, at some point and time, dealt with and even battled with various feelings of being unworthy, inadequate, not talented enough, or simply think we’re all thumbs and have two left feet. Whether it is standing in front of the commander to give a briefing, going to the ...read more

  • The Commission Of The Ascension Series

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on May 11, 2013
     | 6,601 views

    Before ascending into heaven, Jesus instructs us to preach forgiveness and the remission of sins to the whole world!

    The ascension of Jesus Christ to heaven! It is something we believe in! We affirm this belief as part of “The apostles’ creed” as well as the “Nicene Creed.” We state in the Nicene Creed, “He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge ...read more

  • Peace Through Jesus Christ

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on May 5, 2013
     | 6,181 views

    Perfect peace is found only in Jesus Christ by developing an intimate relationship with Him. Two ways to help with that is developing our prayer life and being obedient to Him.

    Shalom! Peace! Jesus offers us the gift of his peace. Pope Benedict XVI, said of this, “Here, the traditional greeting with which people wish one another shalom, peace, becomes something new: it becomes the gift of the peace that Jesus alone can give because it is the fruit of his radical victory ...read more

  • Love Each Other

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Apr 26, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,912 views

    We are given the command by Jesus to love others unconditionally...with agape love.

    There is a story told about one pitiful man whose fiancé broke their engagement and shredded his tender heart. After some time apart, He later received a letter of apology and desire for reconciliation. It read: Dearest Jimmy, No words could ever express the great unhappiness I've felt since ...read more

  • Listening For His Voice

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Apr 20, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,788 views

    Hearing God's voice is more than audible reception, but the ability to recognize it is the Father speaking.

    We love to express ourselves and love to tell our side of the story! Is that not true? If it is not, then why is it so hard to keep from “jumping in” before others are done speaking or finished telling their stories? Probably, because we have all struggled with simply listening! I came ...read more

  • Love Reaffirmed

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Apr 14, 2013
     | 3,962 views

    Jesus desires our love above all else. Can we leave the past behind and reaffirm our love to Christ?

    I was reading in the book, “Streams in the Desert” which stated that one of life’s greatest paradoxes is knowing that the only person who is truly at rest is the one who had achieved it by working through the struggles of conflict, mistakes and regret. The book went on to note that: “The person ...read more

  • At The Feet Of Jesus

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Mar 21, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,338 views

    Like Judas, let us forsake a casual relationship with Jesus and be more like Mary who developed a close, personal, and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, the Savior.

    I ran across a book from 1904, entitled, “Maxwell’s Elementary grammar” that contained the following poem: "Oho!" said the pot to the kettle; "You are dirty and ugly and black! Sure no one would think you were metal, except when you're given a crack." "Not so! Not so!" kettle ...read more

  • I Will Arise!

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Mar 10, 2013
     | 14,743 views

    There is no such thing in this physical life as "passing the point of no return" with our loving Father. He awaits our return to Him.

    I believe all of us know one of the main reasons that retailers such as “Home Depot” and “Lowe’s” have managed to be so successful. Three words: Do. It. Yourself! Not only will these home-improvement giants sell you what you need to fix up and spruce up your home or business, but they will even ...read more
