    "God's Family....better Together" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Jun 20, 2017
     | 12,156 views

    If we trace God’s hand back to the book of Genesis and follow it through the OT we see God as the creator of two institutions. (1) The family and (2) the church. And we quickly realize that the two are very closely related.

    FAMILY MATTERS “God’s Family….Better Together” Acts 2:42-47 “I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God, I’ve been washed in the fountain, cleansed by his blood, joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this side; I’m a part of the family, the family of God.” Have you heard that before? I certainly ...read more

    Part 9 in series "Life’s Too Short To," this message examines Christianity as a counter-cultural movement and compares it to Christianity as merely a sub-culture.

    Because of our tendency to pass quick and critical judgment on others, our Lord has chosen to address this issue. Chapter 7 verses 1-12 addresses an issue plaguing the religion of Jesus’ day and of ours, that of misdirected effort.

    What You See May Not Be The Truth Matthew 7:1-12 A while back, I read the very distressing account of an incident in the life of a young bachelor. He worked in an office where every year the boss gave each employee a turkey as a bonus for the holiday season. Of course, the bachelor could never ...read more

    What should you do when the Lord calls you to a task that will involve working with a hostile group of people? You must pray for the Lord the lead you to a key individual who is already on the inside of the group you are trying to reach.

    Ministry is all about people, and when the Lord lays a calling on your heart it will involve or effect people in some way or another, because it is human beings whom God came to save through Jesus Christ. So, what are you supposed to do when the Lord calls you to a task that will involve working ...read more

    Living By Faith

    Contributed by Paul George on May 27, 2003

     | 8,000 views

    Faith is one of the most ambiguous words in the Christian vocabulary. True Christian faith is not only to believe that the Bible is true, but also have a sure trust in Jesus Christ.

    The author of the Letters to the Hebrews wrote, "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). If we beleive this it should have an influence on our reaction toward the Lord when His will is not our will. How do we react when events happen in ...read more
