    We all fail, but most of us struggle to come to grips with our failure - God’s Word provides instruction.

    Please Note: To the degree I may positively contribute at all is a reflection of the degree to which I have been open to and willing to learn from the Holy Spirit, in God’s Word and through other servants of His. All of my messages are directly or indirectly, consciously or subconsciously ...read more

How many of us want our children to grow up to fail? - Failure is something that most of us want to avoid at all costs. We do not want to be known for our failures nor do we want to ...read more

    Saul's Failure Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Apr 3, 2003
    based on 50 ratings
     | 24,287 views

    Saul’s mistake was that he was more worried about his success than God’s glory. God became for him a means to an end, rather than an end in himself. So this is both warning and a challenge to us. Make sure that God is at the centre of our focus in everyth

    On the surface, the story of Saul’s life is one of wars against his enemies, mostly victorious. But that’s just the setting for a much more significant drama that unfolds as his life as king progresses, a drama that involves his relationship with the God of Israel. It’s ironic that as the story ...read more

    Contributed by Ray Scott on Feb 12, 2004
    based on 36 ratings
     | 18,696 views

    God views "success" differently than we do. God looks at "faithfulness" as His standard for determining "success". Examples are given as to some "Successful Failures", such as Isaiah, Jeremiah and Peter.

    “Success And Failure” 1 Corinthians 4:2 INTRODUCTION: Everybody wants to be successful … or a part of something successful. BUT … I had to ask myself, “What does SUCCESSFUL mean?” You want to be a “successful” parent … RIGHT? (our series on Sunday nights) What does that mean? Does it mean ...read more

    Failure is temporary; giving up is what makes it permanent. God never gives up on us, so why should we give up on ourselves?

    Failure is Temporary How many of you here remember the first time you tried to ride a bike? Did any of you hop right on and just take off without falling down, skinning up your knees, or worse? Probably not. You probably fell off your bike many, many times before you got the hang ...read more
