    Jesus Never Tapped Out

    Jesus never tapped. When someone taps out, they are surrendering to their opponent. They are throwing in the towel, they are giving up, they are quitting the fight. They are saying you win, its over, I’m done, it’s finished.

    Jesus Never Tapped Out (Note to Pastor’s I started this message with a video made in house of a 5 year old doing mixed martial arts type fighting with his father, it ended with the child putting his father in an arm bar, and the dad tapping out. I used this to explain what tap out means in the ...read more

    How Do We Run The Race When We Can’t Run?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 24, 2012
     | 5,776 views

    This talk was from early December 2012 as feedback from my Sabbatical. The question in my mind was, "How do we run the race when we can’t run?" I spent time talking to and reading books by people with various impairments. This is some of what I learned.

    For the purposes of this morning I’m going to assume that none of you knows about the illness that left me almost bed ridden for 7 months back in 2008. I’ve only met some of you recently and so that seems to be the best way to proceed. When I visited Kenya recently I said, “I have 1 wife and 3 ...read more
