    Confrontation! Series

    Laban confronts Jacob after God tells him to leave and go to Canaan. We learn how God peels away the flesh and transforms us with His character through the confrontation between Laban and Jacob.

    If Paul was willing to endure hardship, face death, and live with risk, perhaps there are some small steps we might take to give everything for the gospel.

    Living on the Edge July 16, 2006 II Corinthians 6:1-13 Some years ago, I remember presiding at the funeral of one of the older ladies of the church.

    As a believer, what would you do if you receive a fearful and unpleasant letter, news or report?

    Fear is one of the instruments the enemy uses to perpetrate evil against believers and the body of Christ. The devil knows that when he throws a person into a state of panic, the person becomes disorganized, vulnerable and easy to defeat. As a believer, what would you do if you receive a fearful ...read more

    John 9 is a compelling chapter in John’s Gospel. The healing of the man born blind confronts us with our own spiritual blindness. As we read, we are confronted with the same question that Jesus presents him, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?" Jesus, the

    John presents his gospel in much the same way that a lawyer presents evidence in a kind of divine trial. He compels his “jury” to make a decision for themselves about Jesus – “do you believe or not?” The gospel is often divided into two sections – the Book of Signs (chapters 1-12) and the Book of ...read more
