    based on 1 rating
     | 1,377 views

    How do we respond to the good and evil that is done to us? There are many ways we can respond, but God’s word teaches us the right way, and it is the way Jesus exemplified for us.

    We read in Numbers 22:12, And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed. (KJV) God told Balaam that he was not to accompany the men of Moab who had approached him, and he was not to curse the people of Israel because they were a people ...read more

    The Wonders Of His Love Series

     | 2,331 views

    How did Jesus coming as a baby mean that there would be peace on earth and goodwill for us? My journey through Advent has brought me back to the manger where God shows up in the flesh, where the God-Man is all potential, just lying there. It's an offer. It's an invitation.

    Babies change everything, or at least a lot of things change for a family when a baby is born. For mothers, a selfless devotion to her child kicks in. Life revolves around what the baby needs, not her own needs. New fathers find a place in their hearts that was not there before. A sense of pride ...read more

    Empowering Leaders

    Contributed by Brien Sims on Jan 16, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,402 views

    Empowering leadership means putting the “church at large” back into the hands of the people. Elders are there to help govern and protect.

    Society today has placed its seal of approval on single parent households and homosexual adoption. The laws allowing such activity give evidence of such a stamp of approval. The ideas of familial leadership have begun to fail quickly. Sociologists and experts in family studies have just recently ...read more
