     | 4,283 views

    An empty niche above the church door, made for a statue of a saint, but now containing a hornet’s nest, suggests the choice of letting our lives be empowered by God or letting the sting of death and disappointment take over.

    The other day I was hauling in a load of stuff from my car. I came in the Aspen Street entrance to the building, the entrance nearest my office.

    Jesus is calling us to believe and live for him beyond the power of reason to believe

    It's amazing how quickly we settle for less that what is promised and possible. So what do we do with Jesus' outlandish promises about power for living?

    “Setting Troubled Hearts at Rest: Power for the Future” John 14:7-14 In one of Charles Schultz's ‘Peanuts’ cartoons Snoopy, the hound of heaven, says of Woodstock, that would-be bird of paradise, "Someday Woodstock is going to be a great eagle." Then in the next frame he ...read more

     | 5,127 views

    God helps those that help themselves. We have to help ourselves; first we must repent of our sins; second we have to cleanse our hearts and begin following Jesus. I am sure that all of us here would like to receive the blessings that God has for us, but

    I was speaking to someone the other day at work, and he said something to me that left me thinking. He said, “it is just as the bible says, God helps those that help themselves”. Has anyone here ever heard that expression? I can say that I have heard it on numerous occasions, but ...read more

     | 26,022 views

    Confessing Jesus is part of our response to God’s gracious gift of salvation. But is it just a one time thing, where we recite a creedal statement and that’s it? Or is there more to it?

    The key to healthy prayer is more than a technique; it is a healthy attitude. Let's look at six attitudes that lead to a satisfying and effective prayer life.

    Prayer Attitudes J. C. Ryle once wrote, "If I know anything of a Christian's heart, you are often sick of your own prayers." You go to pray but you can't think of what to say.
