Mind Your Own Business!

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 11, 2020

If we decide to get involved in another person's business, chances are we will be told to mind our own business. In some cases we should do that but there are other situations when it's appropriate to not mind our own business.

"MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!" A few weeks ago, I did a sermon on opinions. My first point was about people who are opinionated. I talked about those who interject themselves into conversations they weren't invited in to offer their unsolicited opinion. When we do things like that, people ...read more

Winning The Battle For Your Mind

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 17, 2024

One of the most important things we need to learn and teach others is how to guard, strengthen, and renew our minds, because the battle for sin always starts in the mind.

It is the battle for your mind, and that battle is vicious. It is intense. It is unrelenting, and it is unfair because Satan never ...read more

Setting Our Minds

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Feb 27, 2021

Peter has good intentions, but they are not in agreement with God's ultimate plan. We must covenant to deny ourselves and align ourselves to God's will and ways.

WE MAY HAVE HEARD THIS FAMILIAR SAYING: “THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.” AN INTENTION IS SIMPLY A PLAN OR GOAL WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH. IRONICALLY, INTENTIONS DON’T ACHIEVE ANYTHING. THEY ARE MERELY IDEAS AND DREAMS OF SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THE ...read more

Contributed by Vince Miller on Aug 28, 2018

No one wants to live in a lie, however, as a believing being, many men live with corrupt beliefs that influence their thoughts and actions.

Rule your mind or it will rule you because anything that one imagines of God apart from Christ is idolatory.
