    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Sep 11, 2001
    based on 21 ratings
     | 7,753 views

    Danger in itself is not wrong. But there are temnptations we face to deal with our anger unhelpfully.

    I want to talk today about the danger of anger; or more accurately about the temptation to let our anger consume us. Now let’s face it, every one of us will experience anger from time to time, some more than others. Some of us are probably more prone to anger due to our emotional makeup, but all of ...read more

    This is about keeping our walk fresh.

    Turn with me to James chapter 1. Read James 1:17-27. James was a most practical writer, and here we see his practicality shine through. We see some the basic ideas of the walk. The Christian life has often been called a walk. You can tell a lot about a person by their walk. Someone who is ...read more

     | 4,329 views

    God’s promise seems to have failed, but Moses is called to remind his people that he is God and he will save them and give them the land he promised to Abraham. God can be trusted.

    Can you trust God’s promises? What do you do when nothing seems to come of what you thought God had said he’d do? What if you find yourself in a place that’s the exact opposite of what you were expecting? What if God has promised that he’ll look after you, that he’ll bless you and yet you feel like ...read more

    In Mark 5, Jesus meets a woman whose desperate, but determined. After touching his garment she is delivered!

    Desperate for Love In Mark 5, we find that Jesus was a man on a mission. A very important mission. In fact, it was literally a matter of life and death. Jesus was on his way home, having just cross back over lake Galilee (this time their trip was apparently much less eventful). As always, a crowd ...read more

    What’s the key to having a successful church? There are large "successful" churches that haven’t learned what Jesus’ formula was. Do you know what Jesus’ formula was?

    OPEN: In a California city, a woman rushed into a store, glanced around and took a number. Then she heard the clerk call out “87,” and she looked down and saw her own number was 8. She was understandably puzzled, because there were only 3 other people in the store. So she went to the counter and, ...read more

    What is the abundant life Jesus promised? Not activity, not longevity, not prosperity, not congeniality. It is generosity; giving returns fulfillment.

    I was just making small talk, asking the kind of questions you ask when you have finished commenting about the weather and you are scared to discuss politics or religion. I asked him, “Have you lived here all your life?” Quick as a flash came back his answer, “Not yet. Not yet I haven’t.” Oh, ...read more

    We are to pray for one another with thankfulness for God’s grace being shown in our lives; with confidence that God is watching over us and will vindicate us in the end. We are to pray that God might see in us the fruit of his Spirit, that he might bring

    Today we begin a short series, looking at the prayers of St Paul.

    The church must be the one place in the world where the things which serve to classify and separate people must not be allowed.

Some looked at him and said how awful that someone looking like that is lying outside our beautiful ...read more

     | 31,431 views

    In our relationship with Christ and our fellow believers, God has given us a call to demonstrate our love to both by serving one another. Service is love in action. Service ought to be a natural product of the Christian life. Service is selflessness.

    SERVE ONE ANOTHER Galatians 5:13 - 14 For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

    In some of the storms of life, God intervenes and shelters us. In others, He allows us to be exposed so that we will be pressed more closely to Him.

    Opening illustration: Whether we are reading the daily paper, listening to the radio, or watching TV, the news is filled with what one might call the fruits of discouragement and even despair. Life is like a continuous newsreel showing the futile actions of people trying to live without a biblical ...read more
