    You Call This Worship?

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Feb 7, 2011
     | 5,352 views

    1) True worship is persistent, not sporadic. 2) True worship is done for others, not for oneself. 3) True worship is beneficial, not futile.

    I have a confession to make. I haven’t eaten a tasty store-bought or restaurant-made pizza since coming to Canada. The crusts are consistently too dry or too doughy. The pepperoni is too greasy and too salty. And the pizza sauce is too sweet. It’s not as bad as the pizza I had in ...read more

    Is there an aswer to the cause of suffering? The worlds philosophys either deny the reality of suffering or say it must be dealt with until the release of death. The Christian worldview provides neither denial of evil nor disability in dealing with its

    "What's The Big Deal About Church?” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jun 16, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,627 views

    Paul explains how the church is a really "big deal" in the plan of God and how it should, therefore be a "big deal" to us.

    A word that Paul uses in our passage for today is one that he also uses elsewhere in this book. That word is “mystery. The word “mystery,” is used by Paul in verses 3, 4, 6, & 9. What is Paul referring to when he uses this word? The word, “mystery” might make us think of Agatha Christie, Sherlock ...read more

    An explanation of the Fourth Petition: "Give us today our daily bread."

    Ordering at an ethnic restaurant can be a daunting experience. For one, many of those places have a menu that’s as thick as a phone book. If you diligently read through all the entree choices, it may take you longer to pick your meal than to eat it! For another, unfamiliar words like pho ...read more

    Jesus wants us to be prepared for His return, to be faithful and wise servants who are actively involved in the work of His Kingdom. We need to keep watch and stay invested in His Kingdom.

    Are you the type of person who tends to wait until the last minute to take care of important things? • Do you wait until the last minute to study for an exam? • Do you wait until April 14 to file your income tax return due on April 15? • Do you postpone going to the see the doctor until you ...read more

    We hallow the name of God not only with our lips but also with our lives.

    THE PRAYER -- AND THE LIFE! -- THAT EXALTS GOD “...hallowed be thy name.” Matthew 6:9 Jan and I were watching a cooking show the other day -- Ina Garten’s Barefoot Contessa, I think it was -- and I commented on how Ina chops vegetables. In this instance, she was chopping ...read more

    Perhaps the greatest need for Christians today is to develop a higher spiritual discipline of abiding in Christ and His word.

    Abiding in Christ: John 15:7 “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.” – John 15:7 Perhaps the greatest need for Christians today is to develop a higher spiritual discipline of abiding in Christ and His word.

    Bread Clearly Broken

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on May 6, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,880 views

    Not through intellectual assent, wisdom, and knowledge, but through the act of love, the breaking of bread, do we recognize Jesus Christ and know him as our Risen Lord and Savior.

    Hearing the message of the Gospel is not enough. Understanding, intellectual assent is not adequate. Peter’s proclamation of the Gospel at Pentecost did not result in the people exclaiming, “We agree with your reasoning,” or, “That makes sense to us.” Rather, ...read more

    Christ's call to serve is unique for each and every believer. He will give us the situation, the words and the ability to do what He wants us to do. He is the one who makes a difference. We are tools to be used by Him.

    “I was shivering, and you gave me clothes…” Martin of Tours was a Roman soldier and a Christian. One cold winter day, as he was entering a city, a beggar stopped him and asked for money. Martin had no money, but the beggar was blue and shivering with cold and Martin gave him what ...read more

    Treated Better Than We Deserve

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 26, 2016
     | 6,595 views

    Many complain about God letting them down, but the truth is, God blesses us far more than we deserve. If we compare our selves with others, or consider if we got justice instead of mercy, we'd never charge God with wrongdoing.

    TREATED BETTER THAN WE DESERVE Ps. 103:10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There was a man who had a cat named Mr. Peoples. It was an especially obnoxious cat which yowled a lot and loved to pounce on him when he fell asleep in his lazy-boy chair. It would stand around smirking at him. 2. So one day he ...read more

    Who Am I

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 15, 2015
     | 7,493 views

    Like Peter, we are followers of Jesus. Like Peter, we sometimes have deep faith, and, at other times, a lack of faith. Jesus saw in Peter the same thing he sees in us-building material that can be shaped into a people of faith to serve his reign.

    The Gospel reading from Matthew 16:13-20 takes place in the region of Caesarea Philippi. It was a territory where pagan gods were worshipped, and it is there that Jesus asks Peter a question about his identity; not in some safe territory, but in a non-believing location. Perhaps that is why Jesus ...read more
