    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,655 views

    This is an introductory lesson on Matthew’s gospel. It includes a lot of specific content analysis taken largely from Mark Allan Powell’s book, The Gospels. It closes with an appeal to realize the gift of God’s love in Jesus as Emanuel.

    Introducing Matthew’s gospel! The first book of the New Testament. (Not the first N T book to be written, but the first to appear in our Bibles).

    Paul, like Jesus, tells us to love everyone, even those who irritate us. We should practice love in action because 1) God tells us to do so, and 2) Jesus is coming soon.

    Romans 13:8-14 A Good Kind of Debt Tomorrow is Patriot’s Day, the 16th anniversary of the deadliest single attack on U.S. soil, even eclipsing Pearl Harbor in casualties.

    In Romans 14, the apostle deals with an issue about food and days that stems from Christian Freedom. When discussing this matter, Paul points us to our identity in Christ, and how that impacts this issue and these debates.

    How we see and define ourselves is one of the most important things in our lives. Our perception of ourselves can affect a variety of things. It can impact how we think about ourselves. It also impacts how we can feel about ourselves. If you think you are important, you will feel important. ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,826 views

    There has been a growing interest in the healing ability of music within the church. That has led some to explore ancient religious music traditions and practices as people seek supernatural encounters and deeper intimacy with God.

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
