    Contributed by John D Jones on Sep 7, 2011
    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,377 views

    Life is complex but Jesus narrows all of our Christianity down to one needful thing. True worship is like oil in the lantern -you can burn without out it but you cannot sustain the fire.

    Needful Things Luke 10:38-42 Text: Verse 42 This chapter, like every other chapter in the life of the Lord Jesus, is overflowing with activity. Everywhere He went there where multitudes of people calling for His attention. His ministry was teeming with activity. He had to stay up into the wee ...read more

    Hebrews turns the notion of provocation upside-down by imploring us to provoke one another to love and good deeds.

    Provoke One Another Hebrews 10:23-25 Rev. David J. Clark While reading the scripture lesson, I stumbled across this phrase that just seemed odd. “Beloved, let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds.” Provoke to love and good deeds? I always associated the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,825 views

    The world poses a threat; anti-Christian elements don't understand us; the media often stereotypes us as ignorant or hypocritical. Our response? To withdrawal into our Christian subculture. Jesus said that's NOT the way. We're to be Salt!

    DO YOU HAVE SALT? Matt. 5:13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: GRANDMA’S NICK-NAME 1. We all leave a legacy behind us – a reputation. One girl identified her grandmother's reputation. 2. While eating dessert, nine year old Karen claimed, "Grandma makes the best apple pie in the whole ...read more

    By adopting the qualities of salt and light into our lives, we can make a difference to the immediate world around us.

    Salt and Light Introduction. If you were to ask anyone with a basic knowledge of the Bible about the Sermon on the Mount, they would probably quote at least one of the Beatitudes. However, the Beatitudes are a part, an important part but only a part of a ...read more

    Costly Devotion

     | 7,572 views

    Mary's act of devotion was costly but it was worth the price because costly devotion gets recognized, it gets remembered and it gets rewarded.

    COSTLY DEVOTION John 12:1-11 1) Costly devotion is sacrificial (1-3). Weird word isn’t it-‘nard’. Doesn’t sound very expensive, does it? Sounds too close to lard. “Hey, honey, look what I bought for you; this perfume called Nard! I got you a whole pint of it!” ...read more

    Is Jesus Enough?

    Contributed by Ken Pell on Nov 21, 2013
     | 6,838 views

    I use a series of movements to weave the story of Charles Colson's conversion into the story of the crowd following Jesus looking for that which lasts. I seek to show how the "Bread of Life" is the solution for the longings of humankind.
