    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Mar 20, 2017
     | 5,463 views

    Say this, “Preparation is the key.” An admirer of a famous person said, “So how did you become so successful?” The famous person replied, “About 40 years of training and staying committed.” ( Faithfulness and fruitfulness are synonymous.)

    Finishing A Race With Our Heads Held High Philippians 3:12-14NKJB Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one ...read more

    We’ve all met some young people that have captivated our hearts. From Atheletes to Musicians. They all have a common denominator. Of all the Biblical characters Daniel is on the list to be admired, let’s examine why!

    Introduction We’ve all known that certain young person that we all agree that one day they will become even do something great! Know one? There are also those who stand out in the crowd of Biblical characters and such a one was young Daniel. He was a spiritual young man. Mature beyond his years. ...read more

    Jesus spent His life doing many good deeds worthy of admiration and praise. But He was in great sorrow in Gethsemane, because of a "cup" that He would have to take. In drinking from this cup, HE WENT A LITTLE FURTHER.

    INTRO Jesus Christ spent His life doing many good things. The Holy Bible records a number of things that He did during His time on Earth: He brought hope to the poor, healed the sick, made the blind to see and freed the slaves. Certainly all these accomplishments were worthy of great praise ...read more

    Friend, if you are a Christ-lover and Jesus-worshiper, let me tell you today, show it in your work and action! Let the world see it and admire you rather than guffaw at our pseudo religion! Anybody with me?

    COMMITMENT Colossians 3:17 “Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.” Pakistan singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan was supposed to perform at the 2016 New Year bash at Falaknuma Palace; however, since the singer ...read more

    Our light should shine in such a manner that men will glorify God through witnessing our good works not to glorify men and have them in admiration but ever to point to Christ, to lift Him up to have Him glorified in us.

    Mat 5:14-16 KJV Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good ...read more

    Would You Ask Jesus To Leave?

     | 6,633 views

    When we cling to and refuse to forsake sin, habits, and less than admirable behavior, we are asking Jesus to leave us. Jesus wants to "cast out" those behaviors in our life if we'll let him.

    If you are familiar with “The Andy Griffith” show, you may remember the loveable character named Otis. He was well known around town as being “the town drunk.” He was harmless and seemed to be more of a town mascot. However, this was not the case in our story in Luke. ...read more

    Focus On The Good Youth Sermon

    based on 4 ratings
     | 606 views

    Our thoughts can either bring us down or lift us up. Focusing on the negatives makes it hard to see the positives. We need to focus on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy.

    Today we're going to talk about focus. You know, like when your teacher tells you to stop daydreaming and pay attention in class. But we're not talking about algebra or history, we're talking about life and our relationship with God. Let's be real, there's a lot of stuff out there trying to grab ...read more

    Having an encounter with God, is more than a distant admiration or an emotional 5 minutes sometime in your life. An Encounter with the living God, a true encounter with our Savior! An encounter with Jesus should not just excite us; It should change us.

    Encountering the Living God Introduction Good evening, friends. Even though it may be cold outside, there is a real warmth of the Spirit here tonight.

    The Christian life is more than a casual admiration of a good man called Jesus (If it is anything it is A MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION with the most wonderful, incomparable, person who ever lived, and still lives in us through his precious Holy Spirit.

    Matthew 4: 18 - 20 18 ¶ And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, ...read more

    Begin Again By Moving Forward

    Every moment of every day, we have an opportunity to find the way back by moving forward. Renew your minds. Try this: "Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable."

    Here is the connection we need to make: "All wrongdoing is sin" (1 John 5:17) and "sin is lawlessness" (1 John 3:4). Lawlessness and sin are a couple, and they will not divorce one from the other. There are no irreconcilable differences. Do not allow individuals in these ...read more

    The word, ‘amaze’ means ‘to fill somebody with wonder or astonishment’. To fill someone with wonder or astonishment means there is a great degree of admiration or awe. Amazement, astonishment, wonder, awe, these are words used to describe Jesus. But what
