    Every person will stand before Jesus one day. The rich and the poor. The powerful and the weak. The famous and the unknown. No one will escape that moment. And Jesus will separate people into two groups—like a shepherd separates sheep from goats. The question is: Which side will you be on?

    There are moments in Scripture when the storyline slows down, the camera zooms in, and God exposes the raw human heart—its wounds, its fears, its bitterness, its impulses, and its desperate attempts to seize control when God has called us to surrender.

    Jesus isn’t content to enter our lives and leave us alone so we can do what we want. He’s not even satisfied with a few moments of our day or a couple of hours on Sunday mornings. He enters our life in order to be in charge. He comes in to make changes

    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,725 views

    This message challenges the doctrine, the belief, that God is responsible for birth defects. It also examines the question "Do children come from God?"

    I have three children. At each of their births, my wife did what mothers tend to do – she held their hands and feet and gently rubbed them. I now know what she was doing. She was counting fingers and toes. And we always thanked God that He blessed us with healthy, normal children. A few years ago ...read more

    It is through Jesus that God speaks to you and me – no matter how dark the times, no matter how difficult the way, no matter how unfaithful people around us may be. God speaks to us through Jesus, and he calls us to himself just as he did Ruth.

Chapter 1 is about a journey, chapter 2 a day in the field, chapter 3 a night to remember, and chapter 4 a morning that ...read more
