    Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 17, 2015
     | 5,188 views

    We are to be good shepherds, servant leaders whose job description includes leading others to God. God empowers us as leaders and as followers to build up, to influence and to persuade others.

    When we spread the good news of the Gospel, we can expect to face opposition. The apostle Paul was no exception. He boldly preached the Gospel to the Thessalonians in spite of suffering and mistreatment. First Thessalonians 2:1-8 is a model for all Christians to follow, especially when they are ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,525 views

    Our security in salvation is discovered through faith in Christ and not by dependence on anything or anyone else.

    SECURITY IN SALVATION GALATIANS 3:1-5 INTRODUCTION It is interesting to note the things that people find security in. Many find security in material possessions.

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,752 views

    Trying to secure our status in God's sight by checking off a list of church activities won't give us enough credit to get away with looking down on our neighbor.

    Mahatma Gandhi wrote in his autobiography that during his student days he read the Gospels seriously and considered converting to Christianity. He believed that in the teachings of Jesus he could find the solution to the caste system that was dividing the people of India. So one Sunday he decided ...read more

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Sep 21, 2014
     | 5,188 views

    Man will only (ever) think of himself and what he can get out of God. It's important to realize that what our government asks for is different than what God requires of us. He requires us to obey Him, in EVERYTHING we do.

    Tenants, Taxes, and Eternity Mark 12:1-27 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - Tonight I’d like to give ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,560 views

    Jonathon demonstrates how we might be a friend indeed to a friend who is in need.

    The key verse in our passage for today is verse 15: “While David was at Horesh in the Desert of Ziph, he learned that Saul has come out to take his life.” Now, this verse seems a bit redundant. After all, what is new about the fact that Saul was out to take David’s life? It ...read more
