    Our decision to live for Christ and mature in Him was never promised to us as an easy job. There will always be things (and people) in life who will try to ruin our testimony or prevent us from "running the race."

    The Cost Of Following Jesus

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jun 9, 2009
    based on 24 ratings
     | 11,806 views

    There is a cost to be paid for everything we do in life, even in our spiritual lives. We explore this concept using King Jehoshaphat and his decision to turn the battle over to God and let God fight it for him.

    Last week, we spoke about our having problems and how those problems will undermine our walk with Christ if we let them. I reminded you of just how important it is to stay on top of the storms in your life, and that you can only do that by fully relying, not on yourself, but on Jesus Christ to ...read more

    Much of the Christian’s thinking and decision making today is based on the senses and not on the Scripture. The church has lost her preoccupation with Scripture. The church has fallen away from a passion and love for the Word of God.

     | 4,135 views

    This sermon involves tithing on one hand and on the pressures we put on ourselves to purchase things at a discount that actually cost us more in the long run. We need to count the full cost before making a decision.

    We are living in a rebellious generation that has no respect for authority... No one will rule over me! I have my rights! I make my own decisions. No one likes to be under the authority of someone else.

    What do you do when you are faced with a difficult decision? (work, home, family, friends, ethical, non ethical) What do you do when there doesn’t seem to be a clear answer?

    Caught in the Act Chapter summary. Jesus is teaching again in the temple courts when the religious leaders drag in a woman caught in the act of adultery and challenge Him to sentence her. He avoids their trap by calling on “any one of you” who is without sin to cast the first stone—and one by one ...read more

    Spiritual Discernment

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 4, 2016
     | 7,691 views

    Spiritual discernment seems to be something lacking in many of the people in America who identify themselves as Christians. They're decisions seem to be the same as those of their unsaved neighbors. Should this be so? What does the Bible say?

    Discernment - The act or process of exhibiting keen insight and good judgment. Keen insight and good judgment … Illustration: Imagine that you walk into a bank and you see that all of the customers are laying on the floor and the only person standing is a guy with a ski mask over his face ...read more

    Prayer Warfare

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 15, 2021
     | 4,861 views

    In Ex. 17:8-13 we see prayer warfare in action: the battle was not determined by who had the superior force or the best trained men. The battle was decided in the spiritual realm. Prayer was decisive. It still is!
