     | 7,015 views

    So God’s Word from the beginning describes how his children literally have to move from one place to another, and often move into a desert place for some time for a purpose, and this begs this question, how does this relate to you and me in our life?

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 3, 2022
     | 1,593 views

    John 15 presents the themes of fruit-bearing, or the visible evidence of true faith and obedience Jesus demands of those who follow Him (Matthew 10:34-39, Luke 14:25-33). Fruit-bearing Christians, or those who do the work of the LORD, will be blessed by Him and hated by the world.

    The Rookie And The Veteran

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 20, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,060 views

    The message is a brief look at the transformation of Saul of Tarsus into the Apostle to the Gentiles. The maturation is not an unreachable goal for us as Christians; it is rather a model for our own growth toward maturity in Christ.

    “For some days [Saul] was with the disciples at Damascus. And immediately he proclaimed Jesus in the synagogues, saying, ‘He is the Son of God.’ And all who heard him were amazed and said, ‘Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called upon this name? And has he not come ...read more

    Our world is in complete darkness. Jesus is the divine light that can take away the world's darkness. As Christians, we are called to show and to shine the bright light of Jesus' love to others.

    Lesson #19 [id3b] The Encouragement Toward Maturity Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 21, 2020
     | 2,340 views

    No one can escape coming into the world as a baby because that is the only way to get here! But it is tragic when a baby fails to mature. No matter how much parents and grandparents love to cuddle and hold a baby, it is their greater desire that the baby matures.

    2/1/20 Tom Lowe Lesson #19 [ID3b] The Encouragement toward Maturity (Hebrews 6:1-3) Scripture: Hebrews 6:1-3 (NIV) 1.

    Principals For Giving – Principals For Living Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 11, 2011
     | 5,449 views

We don’t know who many of the people are, and already know who Paul is, so we skip over these sections. But in 1st Corinthians 16 there ...read more

    What Can Transform Saul?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 4, 2022
     | 2,201 views

    The message is a contrast between a new convert named Saul and a mature follower of Christ named Paul. The intent of the message is to encourage Christian maturation in those who come to Christ in faith.

    “When [Saul] had come to Jerusalem, he attempted to join the disciples. And they were all afraid of him, for they did not believe that he was a disciple. But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles and declared to them how on the road he had seen the Lord, who spoke to him, and how at ...read more

     | 4,441 views

    One of the most dangerous places to find yourself as a Christian is thinking you are more mature than you really are. This was one of the main reasons the Corinthian church had so many problems and may be a reason you are not moving forward in your walk.

    Many times we as Christians live our lives in the dark. We think we are reasonably good people trying our best. But our past, our associations, the flesh, and the culture around us, conspire to blind us to many things that are not like the Lord going on i

    The church today is in trouble. Two recent surveys show that church attendance, even among professing Christians, is way down. Many people today also feel that while they acknowledge faith in Jesus, also want a Burger King style religion—the “have it your way” mentality of ...read more
