    Cultural Christianity means to pursue the God we want instead of the God who is. It is the tendency to be shallow in our understanding of God, wanting Him to be more of a gentle grandfather type who pampers us and lets us have our own way. It is sensing a

    From a series of Wednesday night Bible Studies on Psalms 1-23. David thinks he has been disciplined enough, but we take the time to contrast parental discipline and godly discipline.

    Notes From Psalm 6 Verses 1-2 Discipline is unavoidable for the child of God. God’s discipline is a demonstration of divine love. See Hebrews 12: 4 - 11 Proverbs 13:24 The purpose of God’s discipline is not to crush us, but to create a right heart within us. What we think is God’s ...read more

     | 10,322 views

    An indepth look at what it means to be the body of Christ. If He is the head of the body, the foundation of the kingdom, then we are simply body parts, cells, bricks. What does it mean to be an armpit?

    based on 67 ratings
     | 20,290 views

    God’s grief is not only the response of his heart to the arrows of pain that wound us. God himself is wounded by the separation caused by death. Death interrupts God’s own conversation with his child. When it comes to enduring pain, God asks nothing of us

    We come here today pay our respect to ( ), and to comfort members of the family and friends. We belong to a larger family, the family of believers in Jesus Christ, the conqueror of death. And this is the hour when our belief in Him is tested. This is the moment when our declared personal ...read more

     | 9,476 views

    Sometime in life we make a big deal out of small things. Ant hills are small and isolated, moles tear up and entire yard with tunnels underground and cause massive damage. Sometimes we need to sit back and ask ourselves , is this a big deal?

    The Ant , The Mole Hill During the Civil War, General Robert E. Lee had a shortage of soldiers. His army could be devastated if the Union army discovered this weakness.

  • Manipulation By Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 26, 2016

    Manipulation is a dishonest method to control others, get our way, or make others think an idea was theirs; it stands in contrast to making honest straightforward requests. Manipulation by guilt is perhaps the most common form of manipulation.

    Manipulation by Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests (topical) 1. A lot of persuasion — even in church — can be based upon emotion and a lack of logic. “Pastor Smith was winding up his sermon about the dangers of alcohol and the need for temperance. He shouted, 'If I had all the ...read more

     | 11,470 views

    In Romans 12:9-21, Paul gives us an overwhelming list of 30 encouragments. However, they can be slimmed down to just two overarching themes: self-sacrificial love and overcome evil with good. We also see how these things point us to Jesus.

    Our text from Romans this morning is quite challenging. Paul writes to encourage God’s people to live in their in the calling, but his words are overwhelming to us. “Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil. Hold fast to what is good. Love one another…be fervent in spirit…rejoice in hope, be ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,834 views

Micah calls creation as a witness. The mountains, present throughout all of Israel’s history, are called ...read more
