    We live in a culture that is consumed with possessions and wealth. In fact, most are judged more by what they have accumulated than the character they possess. It seems as if most can never get enough.

    The Truth about Treasure Matthew 6: 19-24 In our text, Jesus addresses an issue that was prevalent in His day. He was surrounded by many who sought worldly gain. They were often preoccupied with acquiring material wealth and possessions. We too live in a culture that is consumed with possessions ...read more

     | 1,536 views

    There are a number of repercussions instituted by God as a result of the fall. Most movements in our culture today are opposition to this curse. What we fail to understand as a society is the masterful weaving of grace in the curse.

    Church congregations need to withstand storms: changes in membership, changes in leadership, differing political situations, changes in culture, and a host of potential challenges. Church congregations need to be strengthened and reinforced.

    Built to Last (Romans 16:1-27) Intro 1. My kids just got a puppy that is scared of every appliance in the house, but one in particular.

    Within these verses, Jesus paints a picture of a father whose character and attributes transcend time and culture, providing a model for all who desire to nurture, guide, and love with depth and grace.

Within these verses, Jesus portrays a father whose character and attributes transcend time and culture, ...read more
