    "It's Time To Flip The Script”

    Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Feb 17, 2015
     | 10,373 views

    This message reminds us that Christ wants us to emphasize giving vis-a-vis taking. The Lex Talionis (Exodus 21:18-36, Leviticus 24:17-21 and Deuteronomy 19:15-21) said 'Don't take too much". But Jesus' message (Luke 6:27-29) was "Don't give too little".

    38“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also; 40 and if anyone wants to sue you and take your coat, give your cloak as well; 41 and ...read more

    Obeying God Is Not About The Rules

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Mar 10, 2014
     | 4,884 views

    This isn't about keeping a bunch of rules. We obey Jesus because we love our Heavenly Father, and we know it's not easy. We need each other, because we don't always succeed, sometimes we fail, we give in to our selfish nature, we don't always make the sacrifice.

    When we talk about obeying God we're not talking about rule keeping. When you play a game, there are rules to the game. We don't play a lot of games in our family because we argue a lot about the rules. Does anyone else do this? I can't tell you how many times we've played a game that we ...read more
