    Love is the highest priority in our life because God is love. We must remember that it is God that defines and demonstrates what true, godly love looks like

    I have been spending a lot of time lately reflecting on the nature of love. There are those that define love in so many ways. There was a time when I would have automatically thought of unbelievers as being the ones who have all of these various ways of defining love. But I have come to realize ...read more

     | 10,478 views

    Use what you have before you ask for more; put the work of the Lord first in your priorities; and expect the church itself to live in faith and with godly priorities.

    It is very important to put first things first. It’s important to get things in the right order. If you don’t get first things first, life just does not work out right. For example, speech. Language is tricky, and if you don’t get the words in the right order, the meaning can be drastically ...read more

    It's a myth that godly zeal or that Biblical knowledge produce humility. Instead only the Law can crush pride and the Holy Spirit can produce true humility.

    Have you seen “Mythbusters”? It’s a reality show on television which takes a modern myth and tries to disprove it. So far they’ve tackled over 700 myths. Let me just give you a few as an example: Talking to your plants helps them grow. Not true! Toast always falls butter ...read more

    A sermon dealing with a Godly vision; what it is, how to obtain it, and how to use it. Sermon text, audio, and communion meditation will be placed at www.sermonlist.com

And those who think they have it always seem to try and run the show for everyone else. I am reminded of a story I heard about an elders meeting at the church one evening. There ...read more

    When we look at a flock of sheep, we see exactly that - a big flock. That’s all. I don’t see a sheep. I see sheep. All alike. None different. But not so with the Shepherd. To Him, every sheep has a name. The one with thick white wool, that’s Amos. And the one with one ear up and the other ...read more
