    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,013 views

    We are not special because we are particularly talented, particularly well-behaved, or born into prestigious families. We are special because we know God.

When we believe in others and have confidence in them, they are more prone to: (1) excel (2) be encouraged (3) develop and grow (4) venture forth This is especially easy to do when people ...read more

    We like to think of ourselves as "independent." We should never want or desire independence from God. Even in our independence, we must rely on Him for many things.

    In a culture obsessed with self-image, how do we find our self-worth and redefine ourselves in the image of Christ?

    American Individualism I want you to take a moment, as we reflect on this verse, to think about the culture we find ourselves in today. At its heart, it is a very individualistic, self-centered and image obsessed culture. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love this country and the people in it. But we ...read more

    Names Of God: Adonai, God Our Master And Owner Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 1, 2022
     | 2,013 views

    The name Adonai occurs about 300 times in the Old Testament. Every time it’s used it’s written as a possessive plural form. So it could actually be read as “my Lords” which reminds us that God is a trinity, of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

    "Servant" in our English New Testament usually represents the Greek doulos (bondslave). Sometimes it means diakonos (deacon or minister); this is strictly accurate, for doulos and diakonos are synonyms. Both words denote a man who is not at his own disposal, but is his master's ...read more
