    Dominion – authority – brings with it responsibility. Angelina Grimké, the American abolitionist once said, “Duty is ours and events are God’s.” God has given us dominion over this earth, yes, and with it comes the responsibility to act on God’s behalf.

    Brokenness is the process of surrender or our heart, mind, and body to Christ

    Brokenness John 12:20-21 There are several indicators of a strong, healthy church: wet eyes, bent knees, and broken hearts. 1.

    There were two reactions to the birth of Jesus. The Wisemen came and worshiped. Herod was disturbed and sought to kill the child, others were indifferent. Modern nations and some world religions are still afraid of the infant born in the manger at Bethl

    Turning Your Worst Experiences To Your Best Legacy

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Nov 26, 2007
    based on 18 ratings
     | 7,336 views

    God over-turned and overcame the opposition of the Jews and the Romans allowing Paul’s worst time to become His best enduring legacy. Challenge - Can we, like Paul trust and obey God even when our best efforts for Him seem to initially fail?

    Turning Your Worst Times to Your Best Legacy (Acts 22) We see a lot of reality shows on TV today but perhaps my favorite is Bridezilla. It amazes me how what should be the best time of a young woman’s life turns out to be her worst legacy. The show chronicles the life and experiences of young ...read more

Demonstrations can be a public display that shows others what we believe. Demonstrate can also mean to show evidence of about something. We hear about demonstrations quite ...read more

    The meaning of “for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven” in Matthew 5:3 is that they will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. But the meaning of the same words in Matthew 5:10 is that they will rule in the Kingdom of Heaven along with Lord Jesus.

    Scripture portion: Matthew 5:10-12 “BLESSED ARE THEY WHICH ARE PERSECUTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS SAKE: FOR THEIRS IS THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.

    Five godly qualities which Mary possessed that mark her off as perhaps the greatest mother of all time.

    The Greatest Mother of All Luke 1:46-49 The producers of the TV program, “The Simpsons” have gone too far in my estimation. In a recent broadcast, they portrayed Mary, the mother of Jesus as someone who intervenes in a fight by beating up all the combatants. She settles the melee by using ...read more
