    Have you every done something undignified in the eyes of others in order to be in Jesus' presence and be a part of what He was doing? This is what this message is about - doing something extreme to be in Jesus' presence.

    Climb the Tree! Scriptures: Isaiah 6:8; Luke 19:1-10 Luke 19:1-4 says, “(1) Then Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. (2) Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. (3) And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, ...read more

     | 951 views

    based on 1 rating
     | 473 views

    In our world today, it is easy to create a version of God that fits our desires, beliefs, and preferences. But the true God of the Bible is not made in our image—we are made in His image.

    Go! And Worship the True God, Not an Idealised Version of Yourself Introduction: Tim Keller once said, "If your god never disagrees with you, you might just be worshiping an idealised version of yourself." In our world today, it is easy to create a version of God that fits our desires, ...read more

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jan 6, 2025
     | 668 views

    Isaiah gives Judah/Israel a great insight into what irritates God, but he also gives you and I the very same insight: these are the things God detests! Our challenge today will be, "What kind of church do we want to be?"

     | 55 views

    Launching into Chapter 6 in the Gospel of John, we see Jesus performing a miracle that so many are familiar with; but do we REALLY know (and understand) the complexity of the conversation being had around the feeding of the 5,000?

    The Beauty Of Christian Life

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 5, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,223 views

    The reason why many Christians, who claim to be holy, look miserable and depressed and long-faced is that they try to produce a sort of holiness by themselves through some rules made by men. They live again under law.

    The happiest person ever walked on the face of this earth is Jesus Christ. This doesn’t mean that He was the wealthiest, healthiest, most handsome and most influential person ever lived! But the joy of his life was centred completely on his trust in his Father (God Almighty). Jesus was not moved ...read more

    Being a doer of the Word is not optional for a child of God; it is the mark of a true disciple. Hearing the Word informs you, but doing the Word transforms you.

    based on 99 ratings
     | 10,287 views

    God does not expect His followers to be perfect. Otherwise He would not have chosen the 12 disciples that He did. They were not perfect, but they were willing to follow, and learn. Are we willing to follow Christ completely?

    Counting the Cost – Part 2 January 19, 2003 Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by US Air Force pilots and the replies from the maintenance crews: Problem: Left inside main tire almost needs replaced.

    Deception is the act or state of deceiving or of the state of being deceived. The dictionary says to deceive is to mislead by a false appearance or statement.

     | 14,390 views

    When Jesus speaks about counting the cost to be his disciple he made it clear that following him would cost us our life of ease, our money and our time. To be a disciple of Jesus means we are the salt the preserving force in this world in which we live in.

    Now the vital issue of concern to all of us is: What Act or Activity Follows the SpokenWord? Following the Public Proclamation of the Lecture or Lesson, the Exposition or Exegesis, or the Sermon or Message, the question is: What Happens?

    I submit to us that the Preaching of the Gospel, the Teaching of the Text,the Sounding of the Script,Should Effect a Host of Heavenly Activity Among the Hearers of the Word! Yet, I hasten to add this appendage, the Ideal is seldom Realized in the Realm of Our Here and Now. A Host of Heavenly ...read more
