     | 6,408 views

    Peter's confession that Jesus is the Son of God leads to the consideration of who we might say Christ is to us when He is either silent, seemingly late, or tells us "No."

    Jesus, Son of God (Who Do YOU Say that I Am?) Matthew 16:13-17 INTRODUCTION: Have you ever talked to someone who thinks Jesus was a great teacher and a good man, but nothing more?

    A wise person accepts and acts upon realities that others deny or ignore. The sooner we get these down, the better!

    Wisdom and the Quality of Your Life (Proverbs 27:19-26) 1. Some people are amazingly shrewd. Take this joke: 2.

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020
     | 7,800 views

    God’s people actually ‘’limited the Holy One of Israel’’ by their sins and foolishness. So, can man or the church limit God's purpose & intention? Yes! Within the context of this psalm, we can, the same as Israel did.

     | 1,954 views

    What is often passed off as indecisiveness or propriety or procrastination is a dishonest attempt to keep from honoring what is right and fair. We can see Felix’s motives as an example. We can also see how God can use such red tape.

    Dodging Decisions (Acts 24:1-27) 1. So today we honor our graduates, and we honor our fathers. 2. I will honor our graduates with a joke: Why did Mary want to work at a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet even though she'd received her B.A. degree? Because it had been on her bucket list for a long ...read more

    “Lord, protect me from the things I want. If they're not in accordance with your will. ~Amen.”

    Lent5B You can tell that Jesus eat whole grains by his analogy of a kernel of wheat falling to the ground and dying to produce life.
