    The Bible says we were created for the purpose of pleasing God. I wonder how much pleasure the Lord gets from our lives?

    The Reason I Live… Dr. Russell K. Tardo I.

    Whomever, or whatever, we choose as our god will either prop us up, or need to be propped up.

    1 SAMUEL 5:1-5 IS YOUR GOD WOBBLY? “When the Philistines captured the ark of God, they brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod.

    The Sacrifices God Is Pleased With Series

    Contributed by Isaiah Banjo on Nov 30, 2020
     | 7,234 views

    It is “through Jesus” that your sacrifices can be acceptable. Anything short of that is totally unacceptable. The only person God told that he is pleased with was Jesus. When a man does not listen to Jesus, such a man cannot please God.

    Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of Praise – the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices, God is pleased. (NIV) Hebrews 13:15-16 Quite a lot to identify in this scripture. 1. The ...read more

    The Gift Of Enjoyment Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 24, 2003
    based on 50 ratings
     | 10,496 views

    The gift of enjoyment is a gift that comes from our happy God; without it, life will not satisfy; with it, we can find enjoyment in the simplest of pleasures.

    The Gift of Enjoyment Ecclesiastes 6 1. There’s a story about a child psychologist who wanted to observe how different children respond to negative circumstances. They got a room and filled it with horse manure. Putting the pessimistic child in there, they observed how he responded. Predictably, ...read more

     | 6,579 views

    If you had everything you wanted, your life would be meaningless. The answer is found in surrender to God and freedom to enjoy life’s simple pleasures.

    One Cul-de-sac After Another (Ecclesiastes 2:1-26) 1. Human beings are different from animals in many ways. Animals don’t worry about purpose in life, leaving a permanent mark on society. The quest for meaning should lead us to God, but, unfortunately, we try to find meaning somewhere ...read more

    Our Faith Potential

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 2, 2025
     | 211 views

    Why does God need us to walk in ALL of the faith that He has deposited into us?

    So much of what we hear about faith today is designed to motivate us to pursue faith for ourselves and the things we desire. And because of a “me first” attitude, many in the Church are not walking in their faith potential. They don’t understand the purpose of faith and what they can do to help ...read more
