     | 3,692 views

    The gift of tongues and its companion gift of interpretation are often misunderstood and misapplied, and it’s no surprise they are often called “the least of the gifts.”

    God gifts us to serve him and one another, in so doing we show off his love.

    If your husband, fiancé, or boyfriend goes out shopping for a Valentine’s Day present this afternoon, would you prefer he make his purchase at a jewellery store or at Canadian Tire? I’m pretty certain that my wife would rather receive a pair of diamond earrings than a new vacuum cleaner for ...read more

     | 1,655 views

    Our personal histories, church history, our culture and experiences all color our view as to what church is about. We need to recalibrate and correct our assumptions by returning to the Scriptures.

    The Major Dynamics of Church Life (Romans 15:1-13) NOTE: If I could do it over again, I would make three sermons from this text. All three points could have used more elaboration than I gave them. In the first point, I could have demonstrated further that the New Testament purpose for church ...read more

  • The Tongue: The Power And Purpose Of Our Words

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Nov 13, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,039 views

    James is presenting practical Christianity. He has told us faith without works is dead. In other words a prayer that doesn't change our practices is powerless. Meeting Jesus changes us permanently and continually. This impacts our works and our words.

    Intro: We dive in again to the depths of James practical teaching. He has given us tests and teachings on practical faith in a personal Jesus. Remember that James and Jesus want us to not only be born again of the word but have it to take root in our lives and cause us to trust God more fully ...read more

    Pure worship isn’t stopped by elements or people around you. Pure or true worship brings break through, purpose and change!

    Pure Worship Psalm 100:1-5 Worshiping God the Father is not a duty; it’s a delight! It’s not forcing us to worship, it is spontaneous, Spirit-led worship! Pure worship isn’t formal, nor is it built on our circumstances, but it’s warm and free. It ...read more
