     | 12,359 views

    We have been gifted for service. But how are we powered. Because we do things according to our own agenda, we often "flame-out" and crash and burn.

    The fact is, all us who truly have been saved, has the Holy Spirit within them. 2 Corinthians 1:21–22 (NKJV) Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, 22 who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee. With the Spirit of God residing in ...read more

  • Called Out: The Role Of The Church

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 14, 2022
     | 2,112 views

The problem is that far too many people now view the church as a symbol ...read more

     | 17,718 views

    Jesus teaches three ways NOT to go after self-worth, and then concludes with the only truly lasting and meaningful way to find one's worth. Not only that, but he models that true way for us.

    Matthew 23:1-12 The Source of Self-worth Do you ever wonder why some people are such jerks? Sometimes people can be so cruel to others! And yet, behind the facade of the bully lies a deep insecurity, a fear of rejection. Our bookstores are full of books about self-worth. I did a quick search on ...read more
