     | 8,636 views

    What does it mean to say that God’s love is "personal"? What difference does it make?

Perhaps you think of a kindly old grandfather, smiling down on you benevolently from heaven. Someone who’s ...read more

    Fear is never God’s will for His people. But how can we avoid it?

    It’s now been a week and a half since the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, and all over America, life is returning to normal – even as we realize that our definition of "normal" will have to change. The airlines are flying again, even if the planes aren’t very full. The stock market is ...read more

    based on 38 ratings

    This morning, we continue our series of messages on prayer. I’ve chosen this topic to begin the year because of its great importance. Prayer is absolutely foundational to the Christian life. It’s basic to our identity as Christians. Prayer is a necessary practice for anyone who wants to know and ...read more

    Life is hard. Prayer is our pathway to peace.

    This morning, I’m going to begin by openly acknowledging a fact of life.
