The Complacency Of The Manger

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Dec 16, 2005

We can get complacent when driving the same route every day and become oblivious to the dangers - and Christians can become so used to the manger we get complacent with the meaning of it.

How Radical Should You Get?

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 10, 2003

When we first come to Christ we are tempted to make radical changes to our lives in order to prove our devotion to God. But there are some dangers there - and Paul addresses these in answer to a perplexing question.

There was a saying when I first became a believer in Jesus Christ.

But some people took the radical part to extremes. There were ...read more

Jesus And The Temple

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 13, 2018
