“May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” Sometimes blessings are risky. A California public school student was suspended for saying “God bless you,” when another student sneezed; and a Kentucky ...read more

Leadership Blessing Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Oct 11, 2015

Paul wanted to encourage church leaders to continue serving faithfully after he's gone. We who lead live out what we've learned. As witnesses to the truth, we apply the wisdom we've acquired through experience and by time spent in prayer.

As General George Patton was preparing for combat operations in North Africa during WWII, he called on his aging mentor, General John J. Pershing, at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

The Blessing Of Holiness Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 1, 2015

Holiness is part of a process whereby God makes us more like Christ. It isn't just what we do in church on Sunday that marks us as holy; it is being faithful during the week, before the watching world...letting our light shine.

In a speech to the nation in 1863, Abraham Lincoln said this... “We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven; we have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity; we have grown in numbers, wealth, and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have ...read more

The Blessing Of Security Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 8, 2015

We're secure; we didn't earn Heaven--Jesus earned it for us--so we won't lose out. We're guaranteed Heaven--not based on what we've done--but based on what Jesus accomplished for us on the cross.

How secure do you feel? The story is told of a monastery in Portugal, perched high atop a 3,000 foot cliff and accessible only by a terrifying ride in a swaying basket. The basket is pulled up with a single rope by several strong men, perspiring under the strain. One American tourist who visited ...read more

God Is The Blessing

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Nov 17, 2015

The bible talks about God’s promises and blessings and we eat that stuff up. We praise God for all he's given to us and rightly so. But are we focused on the blessings of God more than the blessing that God is? Do we see that God himself is the blessing?

GOD IS THE BLESSING God is good, right? The bible talks about God’s promises and blessings and we eat that stuff up. We praise God for all he has given to us and rightly so.

Blessed Is The Man

Contributed by Jerry Smith on Jul 5, 2014

Dear Christian, how much grief befalls us because we fail to listen to the Word of God? Because we fail to RECOGNIZE the counsel of ungodly? Because we fail to AVOID areas and thoughts that lead us to sin? Because we think LIGHTLY of sin.

The process: Ungodliness leads to sin, and sin leads to making a mock at sin. The idea: To start with walking in counsel that is ungodly leads to opening yourself up to outright sin, which in turn leads to feeling comfortable with it and where we eventually become numb to it and begin to laugh at ...read more

Blessed In Christ Series

Contributed by Scott Kircher on Jul 10, 2014

Life is hard, even for Christians. In those difficult times we can sometimes forget the blessings we have in Christ. But when we start to see the bigger picture and understand how we are blessed in Christ, we can truly live in the joy of those blessings.

Ok, I want to start with a question. Do you know where you are? That is kind of a funny question, isn’t it? Because of course you know where you are. But the reality is, that sometimes, we may not fully understand where we are until we see the bigger picture of our location and the ...read more
