     | 17,505 views

    Christianity is about making a choice. Do I choose to do things God's way, or mine? Do I choose to follow His wishes, or the wishes of others who disagree with Him? The Bible repeatedly tells us: "Make a choice."

    There is the story of the “good old boy” who came down out of the mountains one day. He was all dressed up and carrying his Bible. A friend saw him and asked, “Elias, what’s going on? Where are you going all dressed up like that?” Elias said, “I’ve been hearing about New Orleans. I hear that ...read more

    Every church needs to be led. How does someone with the gift of leadership lead the church the way God wants them to? How can leaders avoid hurting God's church? And how can a leader be sure they're leading the church the way they should?

    OPEN: I once talked with a friend of mine who told about the new preacher his congregation had hired. In the type of church my friend attends they have “pastors” who are placed in the position of running the church. And my friend was talking about the great respect he had for his ...read more

     | 1,479 views

    Throughout human history vastly powerful empires, nations, and leaders have come and go. But God's divine power is sovereign and eternal. When Christ comes again ALL people (including powerful leaders) will have to bow down and submit to His Kingship.

He subdued nations under us; peoples under our feet. 4. He chose our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, ...read more

We're going to talk about burial plans. The older you get, the more you start thinking about burial plans. So, ...read more
