    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Oct 8, 2007
    based on 13 ratings
     | 14,749 views

    God specializes in impossible things. When we encounter those things over which we have no control, who better to turn to than the God of impossibilities, because nothing is too impossible for God.

    Jeremiah 32:17, 27; Luke 1:37; 18:27 Robert Schuller in his book, Move Ahead with Possibility Thinking begins the book with these questions: Are you limping when you could be walking strong; whimpering when you could be whistling; crying when you could be laughing?

    Hanging In There Before Feelings Of Inferiority Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,893 views

    When we are called by God to any task, we often look at our resources and abilities and we discount God’s resources and abilities. Whenever God calls we must look to Him for the resources and abilities to accomplish what He has asked.

    Do you ever feel inadequate? Do you ever feel that maybe you are inferior? A man paid a visit to his local psychologist. When the doctor asked him what had prompted the visit, the man said, “I’m suffering from an inferiority complex.” Over the next few weeks, the psychologist put his new patient ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,446 views

    Anxiety is common to all people, even Christians. We can learn to handle our anxiety by understanding that God is our ever present help, His strength is adequate for anything you might face and His help stands on its own.

    We are living in anxious times. As I grew up we faced total annihilation by way of the bomb. My folks actually considered building a bomb shelter. Some of you may have done that. We wondered what would happen. Our anxieties are ever expanding. We have seen people poisoned by simply eating food that ...read more

     | 8,209 views

    As Christians, we need to be reminded that we have been called to be a distinct people in the world. Certain actions and certain attitudes that belong to the lifestyle of the world do not fit in the lifestyle of the Christian. In other words, while we liv

    I saw a quote the other day that grabbed my attention: “The Christian is not ruined by living in the world, but by the world living in him.” At no other time in Christian history has this statement been more true, for the lines between Christian and non-Christian, between the church and the world, ...read more

    The Camel Squeezed Out From Tail To Snout

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Oct 10, 2007
     | 2,941 views

    Jesus call to discipleship is a call of sacrifice. Anything that stands in the way of answering that call must be deserted. This truth is shown through the encounter of Jesus with the rich young ruler.

It is the story of the ill-fated Franklin expedition to the Arctic in 1845. That odyssey was a turning point in Arctic exploration because of its well-publicized ...read more
