    According to one researcher, one of the characteristics of a strong family is "appreciation" or thankfulness for others in my family. Why do we find this so hard to do, and how do we train ourselves to be appreciative?

    OPEN: Back in the 70’s, a woman wrote an article I found interesting. She said that her cousin had invited them to “Come for a thanksgiving dinner on Saturday, March 20th.” She wrote: “She was not celebrating an early Thanksgiving. She was saying that all was well with her husband, who had ...read more

    The Apostle Paul painted a picture for me with his words and I hope to paint the same picture for you today. I got the picture of sewing together the clothing of Christ. He says to ’clothe ourselves’ with different elements that follow the pattern of Ch

    What are You Wearing? Colossians 3:12-14 INTRODUCTION The Bible is filled with Word pictures that explain to us spiritual truths. There are obvious word pictures that the author intends us to see and then perhaps there are others that we may see as we read. A great example of a word picture that ...read more

    There is always work to be done in every Christian’s life. Things to put off, things to put on and things to put forth. The Bible shows us how.

    New York City is a fascinating place. So much of what we are and so much of what we do, comes from the culture and media giant that is New York. Though it’s only seven hundred miles away, I’ve never been to the city. There were a couple occasions when we were on the way, or nearby, but for some ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,605 views

    If we have our minds centred in Christ, focussed on the things that please God, then we won't need a rule book. If God's word dwells in us the way our lives are hidden with Christ then we'll do things that please God automatically.

    Paul has just finished telling the Colossians to stay away from those who want to tie them down to human rules and regulations. He says these rules are of no use to you in controlling your human desires. He says “Why would you want to subject yourself to human regulations when Christ has died ...read more

    How do we love the unlovable? We can flee them, fight them or forgive them. Jesus shows us the forgiving heart. We want to (1) release them through forgiveness, and (2) change them through love.

    One of the greatest attributes of Jesus is His forgiving heart. • Jesus said at the outset that He has not come to condemn, but to redeem. • This is remarkable because Jesus, being just and holy, has all the right to condemn. • We have failed in many ways; we have done wrong countless times. Yet ...read more

     | 3,654 views

    At the end of a year, we can choose to let go of things that have weighed us down in the previous year. We can lose some of the baggage that we carry around and choose to replace it with the love of Christ.

    How many times have you stood forsaken at the baggage carousel, watching the luggage track spit out piece after piece of luggage, but never yours? Why is it, when all chance of my suitcase ever showing up is gone, I feel compelled to stand there and watch the few remaining orphan bags circling ...read more
