    Salvation is easy but only the beginning. Living faith is much harder.

    Wait a Minute, Who Said Anything About Suffering! Christian faith is different from any other religion in the world. It is different because of the very nature of grace. Grace does not require great works. It is a gift from God. We do not and could not have a chance of ever earning it. We will ...read more

    We are safe and secure in our Savior, Jesus Christ.

    1. You never really think about pain & suffering & receiving salvation through faith in the same breath. • Yet that may be the way we came to Jesus, in great pain & suffering.

    Simon was able to stand with authority because he had learned obedience. He had to learn how to listen and follow God’s Word. And when he did, God used him mightily. We cannot become ambassadors until we first become slaves.

     | 25,058 views

    Christian Hope vs Death. A brief funeral message for a Christian. Change the name and you are good to go.

    Scripture tells us many things about the death of a Christian. Scripture does not gloss over the fact that death is a painful reality for us, nor does it tells us to pretend to be happy about the death of a loved one. We are expected to cry, have times of great sadness, mourn, and be at a loss when ...read more

    ILLUSTRATION: THE SLEEP SON A mother watched her son begin to drain of energy as the week went on. By the end of the week he’d lost his desire to get out of bed.

    Introduction I profess that I DO NOT like to watch the TV show, “Survivor”. I admit the concept, though with I’m sure some exaggerations, is pretty cool!

    Invisible Gold

     | 3,187 views

    Don’t give into life’s troubles. You may not see in them the rich potential of a strong faith, but it’s there. To have it developed is much more precious than gold! Faith-Testing Times Can Be Faith-Strengthening Times.

    Opening illustration: In the 1980s, Northern Nevada was the site of a gold strike. The discovery would have been beyond the imagination of 19th century prospectors, for the gold in those western hills is virtually invisible. Even after being magnified 1,500 times, most of the particles remain ...read more
