     | 1,595 views

    What does it mean to be weak in Jesus? We need to be honest with ourselves, understanding that we are sinful and we are weak. We need THE savior daily in our life.

    What It Means to Be Weak in Jesus People like winners • Every day on earth there are contests to see who is best at something. • Olympics, contests, leagues – everybody cheers for the winners. • People respect strong people – healthy, disciplined, practiced, pretty.

    Practice Makes Perfect (2018)

     | 1,722 views

    Are we children of God? Or do we just claim the name with charades and dismiss the character? Isn’t that what today’s text is all about? On a daily basis, we are called to live up to the name because the way we live is supposed to illustrate who Jesus is!

    PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT Text: I John 3:1- 7 The story is told of Alexander the Great confronting a coward: "Alexander the Great had a soldier in his army who also bore the name Alexander. But this man was a coward. Alexander the Great called him before him and said to him, "You ...read more

    The intensity of God’s love is immense, that love which GAVE heaven’s glorious Son. Then that love provided the means where sinners can be MADE into the children of God. Are you prepared for rejection for Christ, for the world hates Christ’s own?

    THE GREATNESS OF GOD’S LOVE GAVE AND MADE - 1John 3:1-3 1John 3 v 1 See how great a love the Father has bestowed upon us that we should be called children of God, and such we are.

     | 2,858 views

    “Extravagant” means: “strange, curious; exceeding the limits of reason or necessity; unreasonably high in price.” We look at Jesus’ extravagant sacrifice for us, His call for us to make the same sacrifice, & that souls are worth that sacrifice.

    EXTRAVAGANT SACRIFICE 1 John 3:1 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Boudreaux had a friend who bet him $5 that he couldn’t eat the man’s 50-pound watermelon. Boudreaux was silent for a few minutes looking at the watermelon. Then he said, “I’ll be back in half an hour.” 2. After that time Boudreaux ...read more

    This Scripture features the astounding adoration that God has for us.

    In addition to the fact that He will call us His children, we really are His family. A portion of that change is prompt, however not all that we will become has been uncovered, yet. Only at the time when Christ returns will we see all that He has available for us. John additionally interfaces a ...read more

    The moment we professed faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, we became members of God’s family sons and daughters of the Loving Living God. Whatever our background, whatever our differences, we are all one in Christ Jesus.

    WE BELONG! Call to Worship - 1 John 3v1 GNB See how much the Father has loved us! His love is so great that we are called God's children---and so, in fact, we are.

     | 6,271 views

    John is writing about a kind of love that is a strange kind of love, an unusual kind of love, a kind of love to which we are not accustomed.

    A Christian daycare provider (let’s call her Anne) tells the story of how one day a beautiful, but very troubled little girl came through the door of her center.

    With social distancing, we've appreciated things like Face Time and Zoom. When businesses started opening up people appreciated them more than ever. But we shouldn't need separation in order to show appreciation.

    GREATLY APPRECIATED To appreciate means to value something or somebody highly. On Wednesday night I asked, 'what have you come to appreciate more since COVID started'. Based on some of the answers it was clear that people are most appreciative of people and the things that helped them to ...read more

    What A (Resurrected) Body!

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Sep 30, 2020
     | 2,945 views

    There is a verse in the Bible that tells us that when Jesus returns "we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is". In what ways will we be like Him? In what ways will we NOT be like Him?

    What A (Resurrected) Body! Titus 3:3-5 “At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. “But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, He saved us, not ...read more
