     | 6,571 views

    Part 4 in series Slowing Down. Many people who genuinely desire to follow Jesus have not created enough margin in their lives to do so. What are margins, and how do we create them in our lives?

    Margins Slowing Down, part 4 Wildwind Community Church David Flowers November 1, 2008 When you read a book or write a paper, what are the margins?

    Receiving The Word Series

    Jesus is addressing those who think they believe, who think they follow God. They had the notion that they were children of God, but had never yielded to Him the depth of allegiance that is at the core of real belief. It is a dangerous spiritual state.

    JOHN 8: 37-47 RECEIVING THE WORD [OF GOD] [James 1:19-26] Jesus here is continuing to addresses those who think they believe, who think they follow God. They had the notion that they were children of God, but had never yielded to ...read more

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 4, 2009
     | 3,653 views

    We have not yet learned the difference between superficial superstars and the starlight wisdom of Jesus. He transforms gold into Kingdom power, frankincense into respect, and myrrh into the preface for resurrection.

    In 1970 Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber brought out a rock opera with the provocative title, Jesus Christ Superstar. Predictably, not everyone was amused. Some condemned it as sacrilegious. But if you listened carefully and let your defenses down a notch or two, their work communicated the ...read more

    This continues in my expository series through the book of Acts.

    The metaphors of darkness and light are widely used in the world of literature.

    MLK Sunday: to work in the darkness, we need light, lots of it, but it may show us things we don’t want to know. The Bible is light for life; the church makes us see its truth in ways that claim us; and Christ leads us to a healthy integrity

    If you are going to work in the darkness you need light. There is only so much you can do by feeling your way. You need light and lots of it.

    If you want to be heard by God, make sure God and not others are your audience, make sure that it is really you who is speaking, and make sure to forgive and to receive forgiveness.
