    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Apr 12, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 27,645 views

    God gives us more than we ask for. Respectable-looking people may not be as righteous as they think. God reaches out to sinners through fellow sinners.

    Do you know what it’s like to be lame? No, I don’t mean do your jokes fall flat from time to time, or do you think a night out with your spouse means a trip to the grocery store together. What I mean is do you know what it’s like to have feet and legs that don’t work? I do. ...read more

He reminded them of their position, revealed his prayer for them, and acknowledged their labor of love. Now his attention is turned toward the ...read more

     | 20,704 views

    Let me begin this morning by asking you a few questions-how big is your God? How big is your faith? How big is the biggest prayer you have ever prayed? These three questions are very tightly connected. The size of your God will determine the size of you

    “The Secret to Joshua’s Success” Joshua 10:1-14 LB JB Phillips wrote a classic little book in 1952 titled your God is too small. The idea behind the book is very simple. All of us have created an image of God in our minds and that image is simply not adequate. It’s not big ...read more

    The Best Reason To Forgive

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 17, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,755 views

    We have lots of good reasons to forgive others who hurt us, but the best reason to forgive is because God has forgiven us so much more. When we learn to appreciate the full extent of God's grace, we can practice giving away that grace to others.

    Matthew 18:21-35 The Best Reason to Forgive At some point, every one of us has been hurt, sometimes quite deeply. Maybe somebody here today is hurting. The question is, will you be able to forgive and let go, to move forward with your life? Forgiveness is a choice. You don’t have to forgive, but ...read more

     | 19,236 views

    Jesus models forgiving the unforgivable as he prays for forgiveness from the cross. As we recognize that he is praying for us, and that we are no better off than those we need to forgive, we gain the power to draw on the Father's love to forgive others.
