    Our Agenda Vs God's Agenda

     | 1,041 views

    Jesus has a vision for his ministry and the people have another, a different vision. The people’s own expectations have deafened them to the fulfillment of the scriptures. They are so caught up in their own agenda they cannot hear, let alone participate in, God’s agenda.

    “What’s your plan for the day?” It’s a question I often ask my wife; usually on the weekend. But sometimes in the evenings after work I’ll say, “What’s your plan for this evening?” What’s your plan for the weekend? They seem like innocent enough questions and often they are. I’m really interested ...read more

    What Is A Real Christian?

    With cultural Christianity being the norm in America, nominal faith is what people see most often, and it’s what comes to mind when we tell people we’re a Christian. So, what is a "real" Christian? This message points out five traits.

    I wish to begin our message this morning by sharing a story by Franklin Graham. He tells us, “Some years ago, I was in a cab when I asked the driver about his faith. He replied that he was a Christian, and I asked him how he became one. I’ll never forget his reply: ‘Oh, I was born a Christian’.” ...read more

    Moses was overwhelmed by the immorality and religious practices from Egypt brought from Egypt. He had met God who gave him the Ten Commandments to implement within the new culture. He had a Shekinah Glory experience--God on earth. The Light of God radiated in his face.

    This past Sunday our pastor was recovering from the flu. When I asked him how he was doing, he said he was about 70% recovered. He then shared this with the church.
