    Get to Work! 1) Anticipating Jesus’ return 2) Focusing on your God-given tasks

    How do you stir a sleeping giant? I suppose it depends on who or what that giant is. If the giant is a grizzly bear, the answer is: you don’t. It’s best to let such sleeping giants lie. But what if the giant is the Christian church? The author of a religious article recently commented that the ...read more

    The first purpose of spiritual growth is that we become fruitful and effective.

    Open your Bibles in 2 Peter 1:8-11. “For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

    The preaching of the Gospel is our responsibility, but is not the complete mandate of the Great Commission. It is just the beginning. Every individual member of the Body of Christ is called to make disciples.

    DISCIPLE AND DISCIPLER Matthew 28:16-20 Introduction: Many feel that the mission of the church is to merely be witnesses to a lost world. It is true that we are to bear witness of the risen Christ and His transforming power. We are told in Acts 1:8 that we are to be His witnesses to the ends of ...read more

    Clear Bible principles for victory over sexual temptation/lust

    ’Power Over Porno’ Pornography and all other types of sexual temptations are causing men to fall into the devil’s trap of corrupting their minds which is often followed by acts of illicit sex.

    There is truth that we must acknowledge. That truth is Jesus! He raises the bar to our lives by what he says and how he lives. We follow him in truth.

    1. Scales: A husband stepped on one of those penny scales that tell a person’s fortune and weight. "Listen to this," he said to his wife, showing her a small, white card.

    We can’t have someone else’s faith.

    Hebrews 4:2 For we also have had the gospel preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith. The Israelites failed to trust what God was saying to them in the wilderness. God promised that he would care ...read more

    Pure religion accepts and applies God's Word.

    With our passage for today, we begin a consideration of what James calls, “pure religion.” He is describing those things which will lead the child of God to live out our call to truly be a disciple of Christ, a sincere Christ-follower, whose life can be used of God to really make a ...read more

    James discusses the external evidence of one's salvation.

    Faith is one of the great concepts of our Christian experience. Yet, some have pressed this to an extreme by implying that it makes no difference how one lives - faith is all that matters. What I am referring to is what is referred to by some as “easy believism.” Easy believism ...read more

    Incapable, Yet Faithful Series

    When it comes to reaping a harvest, we are very limited in what we have control over. All we can do is plant the seed, share the Gospel, but the harvest rests in the Lord's hands. We are not called to produce life, but sow the seed that leads to life.

    Incapable, yet Faithful Mark 4: 26-29 Our text today once again deals with sowing and harvest. While the sower must put forth sufficient effort in preparing the soil and sowing the seed, he has no control over the harvest. He can faithfully cultivate the ground, keeping the field free of weeds ...read more
