    Real Leadership Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Feb 22, 2019
     | 9,245 views

    If you want to be a real leader that inspires people to real greatness, define the vision, delegate the work; but most important, deny yourself just like Jesus did. That’s because real leaders are real servants.

    Several years ago, a 19-year-old man, desperate to get to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, hopped a bus and demanded that the driver take him there. Some say the man was drunk, others that he was disturbed. Either way, only a few of the passengers were concerned, and everyone stayed calm. That’s because ...read more

    Hypocrisy And Darkness

    Contributed by Dennis King on Nov 17, 2021
     | 854 views

    This epistle delves into chapter six of Matthew. There he provides a first-hand report of Jesus speaking and His words cast Christian reflections against the dark shadows of hypocrisy.

    As recorded by Luke in chapter 12, Jesus began to speak to His disciples first of all, “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark will be heard ...read more

    “Rising Above the Crowd” Have you ever considered how our church would get along without a full-time pastor? After all, many of the young churches of the New Testament didn’t have a “pastor” there most of the time but they grew and flourished just the same. The fact is, that with ...read more
