    Jesus promised that his disciples would receive Power when the Holy Spirit came upon them.

    The Promise of Pentecost Acts 1: 1 – 8 The forty days between the resurrection of Jesus and his ascension to the right hand of the Father must have been strange days indeed.

    How to be great in the kingdom of God. The last become first - we become less, so Jesus becomes greater, we become great because of Jesus authority. Practical, clear, concise.

    First things first, who can argue with wisdom like that? It is the essence of Stephen Covey’s book of the same name, “First Things First”. Covey claims that his organizing process will help you categorize tasks so you focus on what is important, not merely what is urgent. Covey claims that using ...read more

     | 10,164 views

    As we just read in Hebrews 13:10, “we have an altar” of our own now. Our altar of worship isn’t like what they had in the Old Testament. Our altar of worship is a place were we can come and offer up the fruit of lips that confess His name.

    Our Altar Heb 13:10-16 10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp. 12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the ...read more

     | 25,279 views

    “Grace” is such an abused topic in most churches today. It is not some celestial catch-all to allow us to mess up and then say “God’s grace covers me.” Personal responsibility has a place in Christianity. God’s grace makes our spiritual growth and “perfec
