New Beginnings

Worshipping Jesus

Contributed by Greg Johnson on Dec 30, 2007

God’s ability to draw us to Jesus is awesome. Our response to God drawing us to Jesus is what differentiates a Christ follower from those that do not follow Him. Our response includes the use of our time, talent and treasure.

Motivation: It's The Bottom Line! Series

Contributed by Johann Neethling on Oct 14, 2006

Christian disciples seek to live their lives for an audience of ONE. God’s opinion, God’s approval or disapproval is ultimately all that matters. The applause of heaven is the deciding factor in their life.

"Stuff!"

Contributed by J. Curtis Goforth, O.s.l. on Oct 16, 2006

Mark’s gospel tells the story of a man who cannot follow after Jesus because of his "many possessions." Although this man is typically known as rich, Mark tells us he just has a lot of stuff--much like us! Jesus re-defines riches here.

Are You Loving Others Or Judging Others? Series

Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Oct 19, 2006

If we think we can live the Christian life by following rules and forgetting about loving others, we have missed the point. The Christian life can be summed up in one word: love.

“Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ” (Col. 2:16-17). Background I. God does not want you to ...read more

It seems God allow history to run its course. But His unusual interventions demonstrate that He was never absent in the first place.

Christian Security

Contributed by Bryan Dill on Nov 5, 2006

Some Christians seem to have more confidence in the security of their homes than they do the security God has promised. Consider these three areas in which we can rest assured of God’s security.

What kind of security do you have in your home? Do you have any at all? It might just be something as simple as a dead-bolt lock. Or, maybe you have some of those motion-sensored lights that will turn on automatically if someone walks by it. Or, maybe you have a guard dog. Sometimes those ...read more
