     | 2,800 views

    Under the right circumstances even the best of us will will say no to God and let our "punk within us" take over. Only Jesus can deal with the "punk" in me. God makes a way to deal with our sinful nature through a child at Christmas.

    based on 1 rating
     | 70,424 views

    It’s poor etiquette to attend a party and don’t bring the host/honoree a gift. We should feel privileged to receive an invitation to attend. Therefore, it’s extremely important that we bring the right gifts to the honoree.

    “’THE’ Birthday Celebration” Isaiah 9:3 (MSG); Matthew 2:1-2, 9-11(NIV) Isaiah 9:3 (NIV) 3You have enlarged the nation and increased their joy; they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest, as warriors rejoice when dividing the plunder.

     | 9,211 views

    Peter's responsibility was massive. Who would be allowed into this belief, who would find salvation? Our task is similar.

    In the passage from Matthew 16:13-20 we hear a conversation between Jesus and Peter that happened in a region called Caesarea Philippi. A wee bit of background to this conversation: prior to this conversation the disciples and Jesus had been on the other side of the Sea of Galilee in North ...read more

    Since God is a personal God, He wants to get personal with you. The power of a personal testimony, a personal encounter with Jesus, and a personal confession of who He is!

    Making It Personal! John 4:39-42 39 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I ever did." 40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. 41 And because of his words many more ...read more

    The Divine Son of God, the Lord Jesus, stepped into this world and was born of the Virgin Mary. The only way that we can enter His Kingdom is to be "born of God".

    "Born of God" John 1:12-13 So many people today who experience difficulties in family, work, and many social relationships tend to blame their troubles on their background, birth or their parents, and regardless of how those factors may or may not have influenced the present, there is always the ...read more
