    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 19, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,972 views

    Can a Christian be angry? Is anger a sin? God through Paul answers these questions, and tells us to use our anger for good, to deal with it quickly, and to learn to let some things go.

    Putting the Brakes on Your Anger Ephesians 4:25-32 Anger is something every one of us deals with, and we all deal with it in different ways. Some are screamers. Some keep a stoic face and only yell on the inside. Some get in your face. Some give you the silent treatment. But everyone gets angry. I ...read more

    Hand Him Your Heart

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025
     | 111 views

    God seeks not our money but our hearts—surrendered lives whose joyful generosity springs from grace, proving that sanctification transforms every part of us.

    Proverbs 23:26 > “My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.” That single verse is a tender invitation. God doesn’t demand—He asks. He reaches out His hand and says, “Give Me your heart.” Not your résumé, not your reputation, not your records of what you’ve given ...read more

    Once we understand how big our God is and the covenant that we have with Him, the giants of life will diminish in comparison.

    Title: How Big Is Your Giant? Text: I Samuel 17:8-11 How do you kill a giant? How do you handle a problem that is so big, you cannot see beyond it?

    There are a lot of differences between Christianity and other religions. One of those differences is the way we treat our enemies.

    SO, HOW ARE WE TO REACT TO OUR ENEMIES? The natural reaction of one who does not know Christ is to strike back and to seek the greatest retribution possible.

    Four ways to make our faith in Jesus public to those around us.

    Just how much of our faith in Jesus should we make public and how much should our faith in Jesus remain private? Our culture tells us that faith is a private affair, like having a hobby.

    Honor Your Father And Mother Series

    Contributed by Michael Sawyer on Nov 16, 2013
     | 7,590 views

    This covers the commandment to honor our father and mother. Rather than looking from a legal standpoint or even looking at how they could do better as parents, the Bible is telling us that we are responsible for giving honor to those God has put over us.

    Honor Your Father and Mother Exodus 20:12 "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. With the start of the fifth commandment, we move from a framework of relationship to God and start to focus on the relationship we have ...read more
