     | 1,526 views

    In the battle between good and evil, God and Ba’al, the only safe place to be is squarely behind God.

    Everybody loves a contest. Why else are people going to see the Buccaneers play the Vikings next Sunday? From Project Runway to the Kentucky Derby, from Jeopardy to the World Cup, we enjoy seeing experts duke it out. And we like seeing underdogs win, too. People still remember the “Miracle on Ice” ...read more

    Move Into The Light

    Many of us were afraid of the dark as children. Should we be afraid of the dark as adults too? Light is good. Light is knowledge. Light is the protection of our Lord.

    Move to the light It’s normal to be apprehensive when we feel vulnerable and when we can’t see clearly it contributes to that vulnerability. In other words, being afraid of the dark and yes, when I was little, I was very afraid of the dark. It didn’t help that we lived in a creaky old house ...read more

    When is being good not good enough? How would you define being Good? (Not being as bad as the person next to you?)

    Listen: http://www.wayneamydutoit.com/Wayne/is-good-good-enough/ {Desire – to change, motivating factors / consequences / benefits} I have heard people say that that are “good” people. That if there is a God and He is a God of love that He would not throw them into hell, because ...read more

    Turning Tests Into Testimonies

    Contributed by Noah Martinez on May 15, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,557 views

    To advance through the predetermined goals that God ordains in each of us, He sends tests. Sometimes we cannot go on to the next exam until we finish the one we are in. With this perspective, we march forward with the help and grace of God.

    Turning Tests into Testimonies James 1:12-16 When James tells us do not err, I believe it means not to misunderstand what his point is in vs. 12, 13. There is an explanation why in one verse James relates temptation with God, and in the next says it isn’t God who tempts. In the original wording ...read more

    Turning Hardship To Joy

     | 5,681 views

    Sometimes God allows things to get difficult so He can produce greater joy in and through and with us. Jesus knew that His Father often used tragedy to cause people to look to heaven for solutions to their problems.

    John 15:11-16 Illustration: A cynic asked an elderly believer who had endured great physical pain for 20 years, "What do you think of your God now?" The godly sufferer replied, "I think of Him more than ever." Sorrow can be the means of bringing us heart-to-heart with God. When repeated strokes ...read more

    The Dust Is Turned To Lice Series

     | 1,740 views

    This Plague came from the land, as the two former came from the river. Aaron "smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice (“Kinnim”) in man, and in beast"(ver. 17). This was a new blow at Egyptian idolatry because the earth was worshipped as well as the river.

    The Dust is Turned to Lice (Exodus 8:16-19) Exodus 8:16-19 (NIV) Then the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the ground,’ and throughout the land of Egypt, the dust will become gnats.” They did this, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with the staff ...read more

    Paul struggled with the postive quality of goodness that only God possesses and so do we. It is necessary for us to learn to be good. So, welcome to the classroom.

    As I came in this morning and heard people greeting each other, I heard a word being spoken quite a bit. “You’re looking good this morning.” “I feel good this morning.” “Everything is going good.” “I am doing good.” There seems to be a lot of ...read more

    Becoming a part of a new church is about developing an entirely new network of relationships and emotional connections. That’s a big step for people; they move into it cautiously, especially those who have been disappointed by churches in the past.

    Turning Complaints Into A Celebration

    Contributed by Paul Sizemore on Oct 10, 2016
     | 7,484 views

    Jesus was often judged harshly by the religious authorities in his day. The Pharisees and the scribes believed wrongly that he was condoning the sins of people whose company he shared. Instead Christ came to make of them "new creations" (2 Cor. 5:17).

    “Turning Complaints into a Celebration” Luke 15:1-10, Proper 19-C September 11, 2016 “Grumble”: It’s an interesting word isn’t it? And here we find it in the second verse of our Gospel lesson today. “And the Pharisees and the scribes grumbled, saying: ...read more

    What kind of faith does it take to turn the head of Jesus? The Roman officer had it and so can we.

    Last week we were introduced to Levi who changed his name to Matthew. As you recall Levi meant “joined in harmony” but as a tax collector he was unable to live up to his name. After Jesus made him the offer to become a follower he referred to himself as Matthew, meaning “a gift to ...read more
