    based on 1 rating
     | 8,295 views

    Why did Jesus bear the burden of the cross, why the resurrection the breakthrough? So that we coud experience the blessing of God. The best definition of the Holy Spirit is Christ in us. Easter is over but the word and work of Jesus are still ongoing.

    Intro: Thus far we have examined the burden of the cross, the breakthrough of the resurrection, now we come to the blessing of the ascension. How can it be that I would say that Jesus, the embodiment of God leaving this planet would be a blessing? Because the bodily incarnation of God cannot ...read more

    The first thing a good GPS system needs to know is "where are you at?" And that's the question God asked Adam... But didn't God know where Adam was at? The answer to that question can mean a lot to us.

They had been trekking into the woods for a couple of days when it became obvious that they had become hopelessly lost. It wasn’t long before the hunters became angry with ...read more

    This is the first message in a series entitled Reimagining Evangelism. This message looks at how the often asks for us to do things that do not make any sense.

    All of us would probably agree that some of God’s instructions just don’t make any sense. One of the most overwhelming and difficult tasks is that of reaching the world around us with the message of Jesus Christ. In fact with every passing day the task seems to be getting more and more ...read more

    Because of Christ we are to do good to all. How do we do this and why?

    Text: Galatians 6:1-10 Title: Christmas Gifts – The right to do good to all.

    The Story

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Feb 9, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,479 views

    Why is so much of God’s word narrative? Why did God chose story to instruct us and call us to Christ? There is power in a story. God’s story has the power to save us.

    As we study through the gospel of Luke, or any of the gospels for that matter, we find God’s word communicating with us on a different level than direct instructions. God has chosen to use a wide range of literary genre as he inspired his Word to us. The gospels are more than historical stories ...read more

    Lesson 15 in a series on the Sermon on the Mount. I revisited the topic of prayer as we came to Jesus’s words about asking, seeking, and knocking.

    Fix Your Prayers (part 2) Matthew 7:7-11 It is quite possible that no aspect of the Christian life is as mysterious as prayer. What should I pray for and how should I pray? How come it seems like nothing happens when I pray? Do you ever think you’re just talking to the wall when you pray? Why ...read more

    I was asked to lead the Bible study for this Sunday, February 4. I chose a love verse because Valentine's Day is in February.

    The Greatest of These is LOVE! What are some powerful forces in life? What has the power to move you? Is faith a strong force? A mustard seed of faith can move mountains (Mark 11:23). What about hope? One great gift we have as believers in Christ is hope for the blessed future that lies ahead. ...read more

    It is not too late to shift our focus to The One that can clean up our mess. Ask Him what your next step is.

    Our world is a mess. Let’s take that a little closer to ourselves… our nation is a mess. We can go closer than that, our state is a mess… do we agree? Are we still on the same page? How about this? Our city is a mess… how about now still got agreement? Our neighborhood is a ...read more

    What Christian tolerance is, what qualifies for tolerance, and why God views it as significant.

    In our culture, tolerance has been exalted as the highest virtue to be embraced and pursued. In a recent article about tolerance in "Christianity Today," Christian author Daniel Taylor suggests that intolerance is the only serious sin left in our culture. Taylor says, "America is sick of intolerant ...read more

    Why does our way of expressing love change so much over time.

    I love you but… 1 Corinthians 13:4-8A The word “Love” has been distorted to mean a lot less that I think it should. It happens so innocently and easily. We decide that we want a word more powerful than like. So, we love that dress, cheesecake, chocolate cake, but it cheapens the word when we ...read more
