    Christ’s call to Saul on the Road to Damascus and Christ’s call to Ananias to visit Saul in Damascus both provide insight into the nature of Christ’s call.

    This passage is most typically known as Saul’s conversion story—his Damascus Road Experience. It describes a dramatic encounter between Saul and Jesus on the road to Damascus…the encounter that started Saul down a new path that would make him the most prolific evangelist of the early church and ...read more

    "ordinary People For An Extraordinary Calling" Series

     | 5,700 views

    Jesus rarely calls the famous, the powerful, the influential, or the religious groups to preach the Gospel. He works best with those who feel that that have nothing to offer Him but follow and obey Him anyway.

    The message of Jesus has not changed in over two thousand years. He still tells those with ears to hear to repent and believe in the Gospel. In His early ministry, He preached in His hometown synagogue and nearly got Himself killed as a result (Luke 4:16-30). Wherever Jesus went, He either ...read more

    The beautiful old hymn "Will you come and follow Me" asks us all to consider our call from Christ, both as believers and as church families.

    Will You Follow? Last week we sang a hymn that we have sang before. Will You Come and Follow Me was one of the opening songs and I found myself lost in it for the first time. I ‘felt’ the words as I made my feeble attempt to sing. The words to this hymn are comprised of an ...read more

    Are leaders discipling or just serving desserts at Church? Are Christians studying or parroting?

    One of the churches in the area has been having some consternation and fear about the effect of one member’s viewpoint on the new converts or "baby Christians." I contend that IF churches were discipling their new converts they would have less fears about confusion. Besides there are far more ...read more
