    Jesus didn't fit John's idea of what the Messiah would be like. Jesus stressed love rather than judgment. Jesus moves in surprising ways and communicates God's grace in unexpected situations.

    Matthew 11:2-11 “Different Expectations” INTRODUCTION The family gathers around the newborn’s bassinette. They marvel at this squirming gift of life, and give thanks for health and wholeness. As they gaze upon the baby’s features they wonder what the child will ...read more

     | 3,884 views

    Gizmos, gadgets, trappings, add-ons, etc. are really optional, but so many of us have come to think that we cannot live without them. The problem is that it becomes like the proverbial "straw that broke the camels' back".

    Benefits Of Meditation

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jun 17, 2018
     | 5,080 views

    There is a link between mediation and attentional functions and cognitive flexibility instead of giving an automatic response. Often we best represent the presence of Christ not just in moments of scheduled ministry.

    16B In the Catholic Church, an officiating priest or deacon says, "The Lord be with you" and the congregation responds by saying, "And with thy spirit." However, an older, recently outdated, response from the congregation used to be, “And also with you". So there was a Catholic priest who always ...read more

    What does Hyper-Grace mean to those who walk In it?

    There is a growing faction in the church that believes there is a very dangerous and twisted teaching on the grace of God, called “Hyper-Grace,” which in their estimation, takes God’s grace too far and preaches a license to sin because they don’t believe in repentance and are actually against God’s ...read more
