    Contributed by Robert Higgins on May 1, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,265 views

    Does reflecting upon the price Jesus paid for you produce an attitude of worship in you?

    Why do I worship? Because Jesus paid the whole price of my sin! Make the Effort! I have played volleyball for a number of years. When you play “pick up games” that is where people just kind of join your team as they walk in, you never know who you will get or what skill level you will find. What ...read more

    What Is The Kingdom Like?

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,738 views

    Beyond the self-denial of following Christ, beyond the daily discipline, beyond the cross to be carried, lies the most precious thing, a thing of supreme and unsurpassed beauty: life in the Kingdom, under God and for God and with God!

    When you open the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark and Luke, it seems that more often that not, Jesus is speaking in some parable. With colourful language, Jesus places things “side by side,” comparing and contrasting, and drawing out from the picture he paints some truth or teaching. Sometimes the ...read more

    Overcoming Empathy Deficit Disorder

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,479 views

    Our world is becoming a more hate-filled place, where people have less empathy and compassion for others. In contrast to that, the people of God are called to live lives of love, empathy and compassion, because God has loved us and poured His love into our hearts.

     | 8,041 views

    Though necessary, I often find it hard to preach sermons to the women of our church in relation to their role as wives and mothers. Paul had a better idea. Much of such preaching could be done without the pastor. The aged women were to teach the younger!

     | 1,266 views

    Without the fullness of the Holy Spirit operating in our lives, all steps and principles of discipleship won’t work, because we’re trying to put into practice spiritual principles through natural understanding. Therefore, it’s only logical to build our spiritual lives.
