    It's Not About Us

    Contributed by Paul Bowen on Dec 10, 2005
    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,490 views

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but it simply isn’t about us. Everything He has done is about and for His glory. We were created for Him and He has intended for us an ultimate and divine destiny. That ought to make you shout!

    It’s Not About Us (Ultimate Divine Destiny) Galatians 2:20; 2 Samuel 6 Over the past several weeks I have been pondering and meditating on two concepts. Meditating-like a cow chewing its cud, I’ve had one concept in each cheek as I’ve chewed. But the juices and flavors have run together and ...read more

    One dark January evening in 1944 Bruce Porterfield sat down in his home in Lansing, Michigan, to read the paper after a hard day’s work.

    Fellowship with God is a matter of letting that which comes from him, rather than the world system, define how we live.

    Because of who Christ is and who he has called us to be in His church, we must walk worthy of His calling.

    1. The first step to walking Jesus’ call is a worthy walk. 2. The second step to walking Jesus’ call is a well-disciplined walk (4:2-3) 3. The third step to walking Jesus’ call is a worshipping walk (4:4-6) EPHESIANS 4:1-6 One of the most memorable moments in a parent’s life is when your ...read more

     | 3,572 views

    Christians must remember that they are called to put off their former way of life, to renew their minds, and to put on the new self, which will produce a Godlier lifestyle.

    Let us pray... Our passage today is from Ephesians 4:20-24. It says: 20You, however, did not come to know Christ that way. 21Surely you heard of him and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus. 22You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your ...read more

    Transformed Or Deformed

    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,370 views

    God expects us to be transformed into the image of Christ. To refuse to do this we remain deformed in the image of the world.

    In November of 1977 we adopted our son Kevin. As Kevin grew, he would occasionally want to sleep in our “king-sized” bed with us. We were used to having our dog in bed with us, and the addition of Kevin added little to the problem. Before too long, Kevin preferred to sleep in the big bed with Mom ...read more

    Jesus promised us an abundant, victorious life. This life was intended to be shared with others. In this message we look at Caleb as he shares the blessings of God with others. We also look at how to deal with the ’giants’ in your life.

    based on 18 ratings
     | 2,674 views

    Preached at the National Baptist Memorial Church -- a congregation facing selecting a pastor, dealing with an aging building, and in decline. The issue is whether we will stop depending on just being "good" and will live out of grace to bear our witness

    I heard not long ago about a very special automobile. It was built in the 1920’s by the Italian firm Bugatti, and it was designed for the outrageously wealthy. This car had 450 horses under the hood, it was 22 feet long and weighed 6000 pounds. It was hand-crafted of the finest materials, it ...read more

    The Good, The Bad & The Ugly Series

    Do you feel insignificant in your service to God? You may be more powerful than you thought. Or do you feel pretty secure? You may be more in need and weak than you thought. Take some advice from Philadelphia and Laodicea.

    Even as the Philadelphian church doesn’t receive even one rebuke - the church at Laodicea receives not one commendation - the contrast couldn’t be more stark - and that’s not the only contrast we’ll see as we compare these two churches. -The church at Philadelphia was small in appearance but ...read more

    How do you determine whether something or someone is "good"? Ananias & Saphira appear to be "good" yet they weren't.

    Intro: I’ve done a little ancestry work with my siblings and in some previous travels to Cuba. We found out some interesting things; my ancestors on my Mom’s side go back to Spain in two generations, but on my Dad’s side they go back in Cuba 4 generations. Those great-great ...read more

    We all could use some improvement in life.

    Well, another year has just about gone and a new one is about to be born. I hope there will be some significant changes for the good. There will be changes that’s inevitable.

     | 3,394 views

    The Holy Spirit wants us to grow in the quality of goodness. But what is goodness? How can we find the path of goodness?

    For the past three weeks we’ve been focusing on two verses in Paul’s letter to the Galatians. Paul wrote, ‘But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law’ [Galatians 5:22-23] In these famous ...read more

    In the parable of the sower: 1. The seed falls onto every type of soil without discrimination. 2. The different soils represent people’s different responses. 3. In the end there is a great harvest.

    Picture the scene in your mind. Jesus is teaching from a boat on the shore of the Lake of Galilee. There is a breeze blowing as he nods in the direction of a farmer in the distance. He is sowing seed in his field. As they watched the farmer at work, Jesus used the scene to teach a lesson about ...read more
