    Do Something!!!

    We must be doers of the word, not just hearers. Sermon uses the song "Do Something" By Matthew West as an illustration to show that we are God's hands and feet, who are we to complain about things, and not do anything about them?

    Psalms 31:23 “O love the Lord, all you His godly ones! The Lord preserves the faithful and fully recompenses the proud doer.”What does that mean? What does it mean to love the Lord biblically? My understanding of biblical love includes an attitudinal response and demonstrated obedience, ...read more

     | 3,357 views

    The very instant that we turn our hearts to God in humility, sincerity, and faith, we are on praying ground! It is also true, that as Christians, who love God and want to know Him more, we can grow in our understanding of prayer.

    People sometimes say that they don’t feel like their prayers get any higher than the ceiling. The truth is, they may not get any higher than the ceiling. There are some conditions under which God will not even hear one’s prayers. The question as to how can one pray effectively is certainly ...read more

    Understanding yourself as you move to a more understanding of who God is. Freedom without love can cause weaker Christians to fall.

    To understand the Scripture we have to understand what was going on within it. In those days the pagan religions sacrificed to their gods similar to what the Jews did. After the religious ceremony was over they would sell the meat to local food establishments. They would then sell it to ...read more

    Effective Giving

    Contributed by Steve Smith on Jan 23, 2010

     | 7,850 views

    The example of the Macedonian our Corinthian churches give us tremendous advice on the sensitive subject of tithing for NT believers today! Advice that is easy to understand requiring very little interpretation!

    So much is said about tithing and yet it is probably the most difficult subject for me to speak on. I think it would be actually easier if the church was wealthy. Why is this such a sensitive subject? Or maybe its me, but why is it so hard to preach on? What about to you? Think about it for a ...read more
