    if we live for "Christ" the world will call us a fool. If we don't, we will truly be a fool. There is no in-bewteen because those who lose their lives for his sake will find them and live with Him forever.

    In the fall of 1976, Lu Ratmeyer led me in the "sinner's prayer," and in the spring of 1977, I joined a church for the first time in my life. Actually, I threw myself into as if my life depended on it. There were Sunday morning services, Sunday evening services, midweek services, adult education ...read more

    Sometimes it is easier to accept the negative than the compliment.

    When you have lived a long time in a negative environment one of the most difficult things, after you are removed from it, is to accept praise. Often you mistrust it because when people praised you in the past they usually wanted something from you so you doubt the sincerity of the current praise. ...read more

     | 6,818 views

    Self-focused pride 1) causes anxiety, 2) leads to a fall, 3) can be redeemed through God-focused humility. We can humble ourselves by 1) recognizing God as sovereign, 2) crediting God for our abilities, and 3) directing our gifts to the good of others.

    PUTTING PRIDE IN ITS PLACE—Daniel 4 PRIDE. One of the “Seven Deadly Sins,” along with greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth. But is it always bad?

    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,020 views

    The prayer of Jabez has been used by many people over the centuries to seek a special blessing from God. To pray like Jabez, it's important for us to surrender our lives to God, trusting Him with everything we have, so that He can leave His mark through us for future generations.

    I think I was seven or eight years old when my mother became concerned enough about the lack of a church background for my younger sister and I that she began to take us to church. We drove 20 minutes to the nearest Presbyterian Church and on one of those first Sundays I found myself in a large ...read more

    Many gifts but only One Source.

    Saturday of 22nd Week in Course When somebody asks me how I am, I almost always answer, “grateful.” One of the big reasons I do that is what St. Paul teaches in our epistle today: “What do you have that you did not receive?” I know that any talent or other asset I have is a divine gift.
