    Gracious Lost People Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Feb 9, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,388 views

    As Christians, we must learn to appreciate and enjoy the image of God in others – even those who do not know Jesus Christ. Sometimes, lost people can be wonderful -- and may be more gracious than some who know the Lord.

    Gracious Lost People (Genesis 33:1-20) 1. Lots of things in life are relative. 2. Do you know what the snail said as it road on the back of a tortoise? Wheeeee! 3. When we talk about people, we are usually talking in relative terms. In guys eyes, "all of sinned and fall short of the glory of ...read more

    Live Until You Die, Die Until You Live

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 23, 2009
    based on 15 ratings
     | 8,061 views

    We admire those who pursue life goals as long as they can; but our calling is to die to self. It will mean a change of values and of attitudes, but it will give us true life.

    I’m pretty sure that we can make a case for living until we die. It would not take a lot of effort to convince one another that we can approach life with gusto, squeezing every ounce of juice out. There’s a strong compulsion in us to extract all the value and the vitality we can get out from ...read more

    Discernment Camp Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,461 views

    Solomon is training us to develop discernment, the ability to distinguish between truth and lies, integrity and dishonesty, foolishness and wisdom. From his words, we can draw four important principles.

    Discernment Camp (Proverbs 20:5-8) 1. Once when Red Skelton was being interviewed he was asked if he ever was at a loss for words. He hesitated a minute then said, "I dreamed I died and went to heaven. Just as I was taken before God, he sneezed...and I just didn’t know what to say to Him!" 2. We ...read more

    We should never assume that common sense is common. We all have gaps in our wisdom spectrum, and we all need to review to stay sharp. Today we will look at four obvious bits of divine advice.

    Horse Sense Without the Horse Proverbs 20:15-18 1. I like horses okay, but they I am not a horse-person. 2. But for much of history, horses were crucial. As a result, we have developed a lot of idioms involving horses. 3. “Many terms and phrases in the English language harken back to a time not ...read more

    Is Christianity a crutch for the weak minded and naive? How should Christians respond to the criticism?

    I wonder if you have heard this statement. It goes something like this. “Christianity is only for those who are weak; it only offers consolation to life’s losers.” Have you heard it or seen this criticism? Just watch TV or go see a movie sometime. Read comments under Christian Facebook ...read more

    Like Hosea's children, we name our selves by our sad history, by our isolation, and by our alienation. But in Christ our Brother all these defects are remedied.

    A good many of us, I would guess, are less than happy with our names. What Mom and Dad decided to call us before we had a voice in the matter. Well, I suspect a good many of us would like to change. Some of us just refuse to use our real names. We go by Butch or Bud or Sissie or some such ...read more
