     | 2,827 views

    How should one ’feel’ when rubbing shoulders with God? Can we be expected to feel something specific to the occasion? Maybe what I feel and how I behave has much to do with how I understand authority; how I respect or despise it; maybe my behaving and fee

    An in depth understanding of the bible passage of Jesus' rejection in his home town and what message it has for us today.

    Our reading from Luke 4:16-30 is known as the Rejection at Nazareth.

In it we find a fast moving story that turns from ...read more

  • Thou Shalt Not Grumble

    Christians should be positive and optimistic people if they want to witness to unbelievers for no one likes a negative, pessimistic person. The Hebrews on their Exodus journey should have known better than to grumble against God and Moses after all the bl

    Grace, mercy and peace, from God the Father and our Lord, Jesus Christ. Exodus 16: verses 1 – 8 but especially verses 2 and 8 In the light of these words, it looks as if the Lord is suggesting an 11th commandment: ‘Thou shalt not grumble’. Psalm 145, ends with these words in ...read more

    The most important job anybody could ever have is raising a family. We have a divine trust in this area and will be held accountable to God for our success or failure.

    Introduction: Some jobs are more important than other jobs. I think the importance of a certain job has to do with who is asking you to do it. In Genesis 24, Abraham, well advanced in years, is giving to his servant the most important job that servant could ever do. Abraham’s son, Isaac was ...read more

     | 7,500 views

    Life change starts with the renewing of our mind. We need to (1) watch what we feed our mind, and (2) not quench the Spirit (1 Thess 5:19) when He prompts, reminds and guides us with the Word of God.

    Last week, we talked about surrendering to God because we believe that God has our best in mind. • When we honestly confess our willingness to submit to Him as Lord, He steps in and guides us in ways we do not expect and we will experience His greatest blessings. • We believe it ...read more

    As humans we naturally try to do what is in our own best self interest. This doesn't always coincide with the character of God. Such is the case with divorce. Jesus shocks His men and the Pharisees with a refreshing look at relationships. As we look at th

    In one of the rides at Disneyland, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, there is a holding room that resembles an archeological dig deep under a Southeast Asian jungle.
