    Ever think of why we don’t follow God’s leading? I don’t know about you, but I can think of at least 3 or 4 GREAT reasons not to follow God -- but are they good enough?

    Psalm 23 has a very clear and comforting image of God leading us as a shepherd leads his flock. The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want. Which is to say, Since the Lord is my leader, I will not need anything else. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he ...read more

     | 6,147 views

    "Good" Friday was good for us, not for Jesus. As dark as it appeared, the following Sunday made all the difference.

Campolo preached that sermon one Sunday at his home church in Philadelphia. It is primarily an African-American congregation. He said He was really preaching his heart out that ...read more

    Who’s the real good Samaritan and what can we learn from him?

    So often, people hear only what they want to hear. Take my father, for instance. He is actually deaf in one ear and hearing impaired in the other. However, he still hears only what he wants to hear. We call it “Selective Hearing Loss.” For instance, if you call for him, he often won’t hear you ...read more

    Discovering Your Destiny In Christ Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Jul 11, 2016
     | 11,751 views

    God has a good plan for our lives and we can discover our destiny in Christ by making daily decisions in submission to His Word through the power of the Holy Spirit. This is the lesson we can learn from the last chapter of Ruth.

    There is a vast difference between FATE and DESTINY. Fate is usually thought of as a predetermined course of events beyond the human control. A typical response of a person who believes in fate is resignation - if we can't change destiny, then why even try? Whatever happens, happens and we can't do ...read more

     | 1,705 views

    Parable of the Widow and the Unjust Judge teaches persistence, faith, and prayer, with a promise of God’s ultimate justice.

    A) Always Pray and Don’t Give Up (18:1) “Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.” (18:1) Verse 1 starts with “Then.” Notice that this teaching on prayer follows directly on Jesus’ teaching on the coming of the Son of Man.

    A good conscience is an unseen and a peace-giving jewel of a God-fearing man.

    A good conscience is an unseen and a peace-giving jewel of a God-fearing man. Conscience is a gift from God. It tames our animal instinct and awakens us to moral consciousness. Without conscience, no man could see his own sinful condition as the Lord sees us. Our conscience surely guides us to ...read more
