     | 1,670 views

    Repeatedly, tell them they are loved by their Heavenly Father. Repeatedly, tell your children that every one of God’s commands is an invitation to help yourself to happiness. Repeatedly, tell the next generation that every time the Bible says, “Don’t do this,” He’s saying, “Don’t harm yourself.”

    Here are some interesting things I have heard moms say. 1. My kids sure make a lot of plans for someone who can’t drive anywhere. 2. One mom said to another, “That’s it. I’m selling my kid on eBay.” The other mom replied, “Don’t be silly! You made him. Sell him on Etsy.” 3. Nothing is lost until ...read more

    Words spread easily. Kudzu was introduced from Asia for soil erosion control. But the problem with Kudzu is it easily spreads and suffocates native plants and even trees. Knowing that your words can spread so easily, think before you speak.

    I want to speak to you about 5 Ways to Speak without Regret. Let’s talk about the power of your words for the next few minutes. We continue a series entitled Give Me THAT Attitude. Often, we tell our children, “Don’t you give me that attitude.” This is the exact opposite. These are attitudes we ...read more

     | 8,671 views

    When we try to live without consulting God’s word, It’s a deliberate, voluntary ignorance. But this ignorance won’t stop us from suffering the consequences for being stupid. The wisdom we need is available.It’s about letting God’s word saturate our spirit.

    There is a common desire inside everyone to want to succeed • Because we measure our worth on the basis of how successful we are. • How we measure that success is often based on a worldly standard rather than a godly standard. • Success by the world’s standard often means ...read more

    I am going to review 1 John 3:19-24 and suggest doubt can be removed by: 1) seeking the truth, 2) seeking God’s wisdom, 3) receiving what we ask for in prayer, 4) being able to obey God’s commands, and 5) in commune with the Holy Spirit living inside of us!

    How many times in your life do you find yourself saying, “I wish I had more time?” The ironic thing about getting older is the longer you live, the more you find yourself saying that. Remember, life is time, and time is life.

     | 5,030 views

    Knowledge of God’s Word and doctrine is an important part of Christian growth and maturity; it is not enough, but it is foundational. We vary, one from another, in our relationship to it.

    Missing Pieces (Acts 18:24-28; 19:1-10) 1. A not-so- bright gal calls her boyfriend and says, “Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can’t figure out how to get it started.” He asks, “What is it supposed to be when it’s finished?” The girl says, “According to the ...read more
