    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,180 views

    Each of us gets to choose the thoughts on which our minds dwell. Paul suggests dwelling on whatever is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, admirable, and worthy of praise.

    Where does you mind dwell? What kind of thoughts occupy your thinking most to the day? It’s an interesting question to which most of us would probably reply, “I haven’t really thought about it.” The Apostle Paul encouraged the people who were the church in Phillipi and the people who are the ...read more

     | 3,503 views

    You may be have been foolish at the cross by the mockery of your life and lips and your actions. These people get so close to the cross but choose to deny the blood it shed.

    How do you view the Cross? It is the grandest single chapter in the entire Bible. And at the center of the Christian faith stands the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We sometimes think that Easter should be celebrated only once a year. But actually every Sunday—the first day of each ...read more

    Paul points the path to peace. It is in Jesus, of course. It is also to do with how we choose to use our minds. What have you done for your mind lately?

    Sermon for CATM – November 2, 2008 – “Think Good Thoughts” – Philippians 4:1-8 Here you see a glass (use a glass as a visual). Is it half empty, or is it half full?

     | 10,326 views

    Learning to walk in the peace that surpasses all understanding takes time and understanding. This message teaches us that we can choose to walk in the peace of Christ and not be troubled by the worries of the world.

    Peace is a very familiar word. It is a word we hear all the time and a word that describes a feeling of contentment and rest that few of us manage to walk in every day. Yet, that is exactly what we Christians are called to do. Walk in peace every day regardless of our outward circumstances. Look ...read more

    I guess one of the biggest frustrations that parents have, is when they talk to their children and they either don't hear, or choose not to hear what the parents have to say.
