    Blessed Are The Humble Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Jan 22, 2013
     | 7,853 views

    God has never spent one moment thinking He is me. Meekness is understanding who I am, who God is, and responding accordingly.

    “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” Jesus’ first statements were shocking to the audience that sat before Him on this Galilean hillside.. He challenged them with things totally foreign to their way of thinking. No doubt, they expected to be commended for ...read more

    Our growing knowledge of God enables us to remain committed to Him.

    In Ephesians 1:1-14, Paul praised God that in Christ all spiritual blessings are ours. Since we have these spiritual blessings Paul prayed that the Ephesians would know God better (vv. 17-18). How can one know God better? 1. By our Faith in God and our Love for God’s People (vv. ...read more

     | 4,114 views

    The word of God calls us to the obedience of faith. We cannot compromise with evil, even when tempted to do so by our convenience.

    Monday of 6th Week in Course Verbum Domini Is the Church Just Our Dotty Maiden Aunt? “Before I was afflicted I went astray; but now I keep thy word.” There’s a memorable scene in A Christmas Story, in which Ralphie, who longs for a BB gun for Christmas, opens a parcel from his ...read more

    Through Out the Bible we see that God is looking for people that He can be intimate with. He wants to be our Friends.

    Friend’s Of God John 15:15 (NKJV) No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

    We must conform to God and not the world. We are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. This is how we can be acceptable to Him.

    ACCEPTABLE TO GOD The obvious question after hearing the title of this sermon is what must we do to be acceptable to God? If we look at Romans 12:2, Paul has given us some insight into what we might do to be acceptable to Him. Our talk this morning will be on five points contained within our ...read more

    Biblical Fasting

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 24, 2017
     | 4,461 views

    Fasting has been misused by mystics and sometimes remained a mystery to many committed Christians. Although opinions are mixed on the issue, I believe we can carve out a Biblical position that, while perhaps incomplete, will lay a good foundation.

    Biblical Fasting (Matthew 9: 14-15) 1. This is perhaps the most awful pun you will hear. 2. Mahatma Gandhi went around barefoot quite often, and eventually his soles turned very tough and thick. Of course he also was a devout Hindu. Later in life he also fasted a lot, becoming thin and ...read more

    Step Nine - Not Saying I'm Sorry? Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Jan 8, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,266 views

    Step 9 is making direct amends except when to do so would injure those or others. It’s also the place the writers tell us of the promises come true when one earnestly works the steps of recovery.

    I have been thinking about Step nine over the last few days. I really think the writers knew how much humility and courage it takes to do a 9th step amends and it’s the reason, they made sure the other steps of getting right with oneself and then God came before reconciling with others. Step 9 is ...read more

    During this Crisis….this Great Psalm was penned. Out of Trouble came a Triumph! This is a brief overview and context in which this Psalm was written and the revelation to David about God’s Sovereignty over his situation.

    Mirth is not a word we use everyday -- it simply means Joy or Laughter, Happiness.

     | 3,616 views

    The way Jesus came into the world and the events surrounding that first Christmas affirms so much of what we believe as Christians.

    A Savior Is Born (Luke 2:1-20) 1. This is a true story. Freddie and John were fortunate enough to have a season ticket to watch Chelsea soccer in the UK.
