God At The Market Place

Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Nov 1, 2014

A perspective on Mark 7: 1-23. When a trivial matter becomes a big issue more than likely we are following the ‘traditions of men’. Our focus therefore is on the wrong thing because we have forgotten God and do not have God’s love in our hearts.

Mark 7: 1-23 God At The Market Place The closing of chapter 6 is also the introduction to chapter 7 and our Gospel text. In which Jesus and his disciples have crossed Lake Galilee to the land at Gennesaret on the north-western bank of the lake. Gennesaret was a small, but a very fertile plain rich ...read more

Get Out Of Your Feelings

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Oct 29, 2018

Surrender It

Contributed by Jim Twamley on Mar 25, 2003

Most Christians are on their guard for obvious temptations. So the Devil doesn’t need to tempt you with the big sins. No, he is more subtle than that. He is crafty and sneaks up on you. He doesn’t just call you over to the trap and push you in. No, he lea

Your God Is Too Small!

Contributed by John Gaston on May 5, 2014

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Sep 15, 2018
