    Blessed Are The Peacemakers

    Contributed by Phil Morgan on Apr 7, 2002
    based on 468 ratings
     | 69,804 views

    Peacemakers are blessed, said Jesus. But they are not to be confused with 2 other kinds of people ... Peace-Breakers and Peace-Fakers.

    “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” We live in a world that is filled with (characterized by) fighting and rivalry. Every level of society is affected. In the midst of such continual strife, God calls His people to be ‘peacemakers’. “Blessed are the ...read more

    Jesus identifies with us in Baptism

    As we come to think about the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, we mustn’t make the mistake of forgetting what comes before it. Matthew has just finished describing John’s ministry of preparation for the coming of the Messiah. His message has been one of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. ...read more

    1st in Christmas series based on Galatians 4:4 - why the time was right for Jesus to come. This is one describes the right time CULTURALLY - one language.

    Galatians 4:4 – The Time Came (With a healthy dose of help from John Eldredge.) “In the beginning.” It might just as well say, “Once upon a time.” It’s a wonderful phrase, full of legend and myth, promise and mystery. And it’s a sort of invitation, too. “Come here, let me show you something…” ...read more

    Self Service Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,212 views

    As Christians we desire to do things for the Lord. But sometimes we are really just doing them for ourselves. Learn how to spot self service and your attitudes while serving.

    Most Christians understand that belonging to the Lord means we serve Him and will do things that He tells us to do. We like to think that we do it because we are so thankful for what He has done, or because Jesus commanded us to preach the gospel and make disciples or because we see the example of ...read more

    Since Christ made unity possible, let us pursue unity.

    God Himself declared that unity is not only possible but most of all powerful. Looking down at the Tower of Babel, He said: “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.”[1] Of course, God scattered those who ...read more

    What is heaven going to be like in eternity? Three things that will be just perfect...

    Tonight, I want to build off of our conversation from last week as we talked about eternity.

    Restoration Series

    Peter blew it, that’s for certain. He denied the Lord three times. But in Chapter 21 we see the gentle way Jesus restores Peter to fellowship and purpose. He does the same for us.

    Do you ever fail Jesus? John the Apostle said “1 John 1:8-9 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” One of the most common experiences we as Christians share is the reality that we will fall. No matter how hard we try we will do things that are against he ...read more
