    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Mar 18, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,457 views

    Are we more concerned about appearing Christian than we are with being a Christian. How far will we go to keep a Christian reputation and hide our sin?

    A rather pompous deacon was endeavoring to impress upon a class of boys the importance of living the Christian life. "Why do people call me a Christian?" the man asked. After a moment’s pause, one youngster said, "Maybe it’s because they don’t know you." I wonder…..could that be said of us? ...read more

    Going deeper in your relationship with God, why that is important, and how you can be excited about it. Move beyond texting God to being in relationship with God.

    I talked to someone who had recently lost a loved one, and I talked to someone who had a loved one in ICU this week.

    Dealing with our sexual lives is an issue at any age and life-stage. God made us as sexual beings, and how we behave sexually is a spiritual issue.

    The last time I did a series on sex was over 5 years ago. If you are married, and can count the number of times you’ve had sex since then, there might be a problem. If you aren’t married and can’t count the number of times you’ve had sex since then, there might be a problem. ...read more

    Shalom! Peace! Jesus offers us the gift of his peace. Pope Benedict XVI, said of this, “Here, the traditional greeting with which people wish one another shalom, peace, becomes something new: it becomes the gift of the peace that Jesus alone can give because it is the fruit of his radical victory ...read more

    Gentleness

     | 4,637 views

    I must say this, today there is a sadistic and egoistic pleasure in being snobby, overbearing, rude and curt? We have just forgotten to be kind, gentle and pleasant!

    Gentleness… Acts 11:2’And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him…’ It is sad that many are skeptical about fasting! Let us not do fasting as a ritual or a religious custom like many do these days without any change in them. Are you ...read more

    When we allow that freedom and independence to be politically correct to satisfy the non-believer instead of being thankful to the true God for blessing us, guess what happens?

    Thankful for the providence of Almighty God. Psalm 100: 1 A Psalm of praise.
