     | 14,023 views

    Wisdom leaves no doubt about the importance and meaning of her call. She comes near to mankind & seeks to win them by her noble & uplifting gifts. May we heed the call & follow heavenly wisdom's guidance.

    PROVERBS 8: 1-11 WISDOM'S NOBLE CALL Speaking without wisdom is of little value and wisdom without a voice is of little use. So here we have wisdom taking voice and speaking. The Word of God and wisdom go hand-in-hand crying out to be heard. Wisdom's inviting call here in chapter eight ...read more

    TOO BIG NOT TO FALL (ROMANS 12;3-8) What is a church? The church is not a place but a people, an organism and not an organization, a community and not a club, a body and not a building. It’s more “who” than “what” or “where.” It’s been said: “I ...read more

     | 6,456 views

    It's easy to think that business meeting is boring, but church business is God's business. We may be too casual with God's business. Every vote should be bathed in prayer. We should pray until the answers come.

    “The king said to me, ‘What is it you want?’ Then I prayed to the God of heaven, and said...” Nehemiah 2:4-5a. This is not part of the original series, but it offers us an opportunity to apply what we have been studying. Last week, we voted on the disbursement of gas ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 15,200 views

    When Jesus says, “You are the salt of the earth” He is speaking of our conduct and character while yet living in this sin-cursed world. He is saying we are different or we ought to be different and live different than the rest of the world.

    “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” (NIV.)

    based on 5 ratings
     | 35,394 views

    Growing in understanding of how God wants us to live and to become an example for Him is what growing in Christ really means. To magnify Jesus while he was in the body is what Pauls main goal was....That should be our goal also.

All of these questions revolve around our memory verse: James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
