    I wonder, is there a bit of worldly ambition present in these men that He had called to be His disciples? I believe they may have been doing a bit of bragging among themselves, and now they come to Jesus to see who He thinks is the greatest disciple.

    It is humility that brings honor and growth to God’s people. A person, who humbles himself like a little child, even though that may cause others to ignore or dislike him, will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. The humblest Christians are the....

    The Character Of A Disciple: Integrity Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on May 18, 2018
     | 9,735 views

    When a person has "integrity," our words, actions, values, beliefs, principles, character, our hearts are one. As disciples of Jesus, who was the embodiment of integrity, our words and actions, our values are integral, are one, with our Lord.

    “Caveat emptor” … “Buyer beware” … because what you see, well … it’s not what you always get … and that’s been the case, it seems, ever since we’ve been banned from the Garden of Eden. We get our word “integrity” from a very ancient practice that was done to scam the consumers of pottery jugs and ...read more

     | 9,619 views

    We are called to be disciples of Jesus which means we are to follow Him and obey Him as Savior and Lord. We must not allow the idea of discipleship to morph into membership, and Christianity to be replaced by "churchianity."

I thought about naming the series “The Discipleship Adventure” or “The Discipleship Journey” – those titles sound inspiring and ...read more

     | 10,418 views

    Humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking rightly about yourself. It's getting and keeping a "right-sized" image of yourself by having a "right-sized" image of God.

    How may of you dream or have ever dreamed of becoming famous? I mean REALLY famous? Can't go anywhere without being recognized famous? Remembered and adored long after you're dead famous?
