     | 4,223 views

The Bible is very clear that as we approach the coming of Christ, there will be a major breakdown of the family and, to a large extent, it will have to do with children. 3.

    How can we develop a heart for the lost, a heart like the apostle Paul's?

    How would you describe someone who has a heart for dogs? Well, we would say they love dogs. We know this because they’re constantly surrounded by dogs. They’re the one who constantly post cute pictures of dogs on facebook. Dogs are their passion, their first love. They go out of their ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,123 views

    We all need to take our own Palm Sunday Journey; not to a physical Cross, but to purposely go to Calvary on the inside, and die to self-rule, so that we can live in the Lord's power and HIs direction.

    A Palm Sunday JOURNEY Palm Sunday 2015 Eric J. Hanson INTRODUCTION (Read John 12:1-19) The reason Jesus came into Jerusalem on that Sunday long ago was not to get a thrill.

    Mary's Song

     | 7,003 views

    The Magnificat. We should take Mary seriously. Jesus' mother is also our mother. She is a “mother” to all who accept Jesus as Lord. Her most significant role is to point us to her Son.

    Christmas songs bring back memories. When I hear certain carols, I'm transported back to my childhood in Germany. I especially remember Stille Nacht, the German hymn by Fr Joseph Mohr that celebrates Jesus, born of a virgin, sleeping in heavenly peace. Here in Luke chapter one we see Mary's song, ...read more

     | 14,460 views

    It is good to look back to see where we have come from (sin) so we can appreciate where we are going to (salvation), and particularly at the end of one year and the beginning of another.

    Looking back on 2013 or looking back in time generally According to the Bible we should look forward much more than we look back, but there is nothing wrong with looking back on our successes, so we can repeat them, and looking back on our mistakes, to learn from them in order to make sure we ...read more

    Divine Mercy Sunday is the Sunday after Easter

    To better get a grasp of what is Divine Mercy, we could apply “homeopathic theory” to our situation. It will take a dose of what made us sick to cure us. Our sins are what made us sick, and are what drove Jesus to experience his Passion, but His resurrection and glorified wounds heal us with ...read more
