    Faith Is More

    Contributed by Mark Haines on Mar 12, 2007
    based on 27 ratings
     | 3,524 views

    I’m calling God’s people in my care to develop a faith in Jesus that goes beyond mental assent (belief) to include emotional reliance (trust) and active obedience (loyalty).

That makes me think that faith is very important -- even vital. But what is faith? The Bible commands us to "stand firm in the ...read more

    Under Authority

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 29, 2022

    What we perhaps don’t realize is that Christians are also under authority, civilians enlisted in the same cause, fighting evil and promoting the good.

    I was watching an old Humphrey Bogart movie the other night, called Action in the North Atlantic. It was about the merchant marine in WWII, not about the navy.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,065 views

    Pick your battles wisely...make the right choice. That was some good advice, because the only thing more scandalous than believing God can do everything, is fighting against God when He is doing what He said He would do!

    What would you have me to do? Mark 4:35-41 MSG 35-38. Late that day he said to them, “Let’s go across to the other side.” They took him in the boat as he was. Other boats came along. A huge storm came up. Waves poured into the boat, threatening to sink it. And Jesus was in the stern, head on a ...read more
