  • Value One Another Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Oct 31, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,686 views

    God expects us to treat one another as equals, love one another, and worship with one another.

    1. God expects us to view one another as EQUALS. The church at Colosse must have been a very diverse church. “Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free…” (v. 11a). The distinctions that are so important to the world mean nothing in the ...read more

     | 6,886 views

    God doesn’t merely want to meet our expectations, God wants to raise our standards.

    The Gold Standard I want to apologize if what I’m about to share is repetitious. I think my opening illustration was shared with me by our friend and Chairman of Deacons, Robert Johnson, a few months ago, but I’m not positive. Anyway, in 1900, a company called the Detroit Automobile Company ...read more

    Let me ask you a question: How many of you here this morning would like to win the lottery? Sounds good doesn’t it?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,863 views

    Since Christ was fully devoted to us, is it too much for Him to expect full devotion from us?

    In the distance I see a cross. This is not an unusual sight. Crucifixion is the Roman’s favorite method of execution. I have walked by many crucifixions at this same spot. But a larger than normal crowd has gathered to witness this cross. I wonder why so many people are interested in the ...read more

    based on 1 rating

    Expect great things to happen and have no fear in sudden disaster that you fear may overtake you.

    Psalm 23:6a “Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,” Many of us have had a hard time lately. Sometimes a prolonged trial can not only sap the energy from you but it can also make you doubt God’s love for you. The Psalms are all about the proclamation of ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,039 views

    God expects us to be transformed into the image of Christ. To refuse to do this we remain deformed in the image of the world.

    In November of 1977 we adopted our son Kevin. As Kevin grew, he would occasionally want to sleep in our “king-sized” bed with us. We were used to having our dog in bed with us, and the addition of Kevin added little to the problem. Before too long, Kevin preferred to sleep in the big bed with Mom ...read more
