    What do others say about how you lead your life before others at work, at church, or at home? Is the way you behave at church different than the way you behave at work. Do you lead a life of persuasion that constantly tells others that you are a Christian

    Consider Me a Believer. Acts 16:1-15 Think back if you can about your spiritual life in the Lord. Think back to the people you’ve brought to the Lord. Think back to the many Bible studies that you’ve attended, the sermons you’ve heard, the places where you heard them. Think back to your baptism, ...read more

     | 6,460 views

    This continues in my series of expository messages through the book of Acts.

    What do you do when God says, “NO”? When you pray all the right prayers with all the right motives, as best you can tell? When you are certain you’re following the right direction, only to find the way blocked? When you feel certain that what you want is what God would want, only to find out ...read more

    Do you ever get into a situation where you are trying to follow God’s will but things just don’t seem to work out? If so, you are in good company. Find out how the Lord used a pinball to guide Paul, and you!

    We’d love to get an email from God with our day all planned out but it doesn’t work that way. And so we seek God and move forward—only to run into road blocks and rivers and dead ends. So what gives? Does the fact that things don’t work out perfectly mean we don’t hear God or are somehow not ...read more

    God-Given Dreams (Mother's Day)

    Contributed by Chris Surber on May 12, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,148 views

    Of all of the dreams that God has given to women it occurs to me that probably no other dream is of a higher nature than that of being a mother. A mother’s love for her children is, at times, nothing short of astonishing.

    “God-Given Dreams” Acts 16:9-15 Introduction To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out for another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk exposing our true self; to place your ideas, your dreams, before the crowd is to risk ...read more

    we can have all the right tools but using them for wrong purposes. When we use the right tools for the right purpose, we have the power.

    Difference Makers have the RIGHT…. Acts 16:1-15 Do you know anyone who cannot sit still? They always have to be doing something. Even when sitting, their motor is running [leg shaking]!
