    No form of government can make up for the peoples’ failure to obey and honor God.

    It’s amazing which lessons we learn from our parents and which ones we don’t, isn’t it? Considering that I quit making my bed every day the minute I moved out, my mother would be amazed to realize how many lessons I do remember. One of my favorites is from a time when I think I was about 7 years ...read more

    Like a Vine giving power to its branches, Jesus gives us POWER through his Word so that we can PERSEVERE and fulfill our PURPOSE in life. Such power comes only from Jesus not from ourselves.(High School graduation)

    Tarrying with the Tares Matthew 13:24-32, 36-43 Tares and wheat are look-alike twins. Especially in the early stages. It is not until they have matured and the wheat is ready to be harvested, that the difference can be recognized. Darnel - a poisonous weed that resembles wheat, but can cause ...read more

    The author of Hebrews commands the congregation to remember, imitate, have confidence in and submit to godly leaders. The godly leaders who should be imitated are those who have a consistency in their relationship with Jesus, are biblically wise, and who equip the church to be distinct.

    Message Hebrews 13:7-17 Being Led When you read through your Bible, especially the New Testament, you will regularly come across headings. The purpose of the headings is to give guidance on the different sections of Scripture that part of the same topic or section. The technical term for this is ...read more

    Having grown up in "The Restoration Movement", our emphasis has been restoring today’s chuch in the likeness of the early church. We should be imitating Christ, not the church.

    Who Am I

    Like Peter, we are followers of Jesus. Like Peter, we sometimes have deep faith, and, at other times, a lack of faith. Jesus saw in Peter the same thing he sees in us-building material that can be shaped into a people of faith to serve his reign.

    The Gospel reading from Matthew 16:13-20 takes place in the region of Caesarea Philippi. It was a territory where pagan gods were worshipped, and it is there that Jesus asks Peter a question about his identity; not in some safe territory, but in a non-believing location. Perhaps that is why Jesus ...read more

    Take heart from the Scriptures today and know that as we break and share the Bread of Life and take and drink the Cup of Blessing, we are surrounded by each other and a huge throng of witnesses, thousands of years old.

    Serve Like Jesus Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 8, 2013
     | 5,905 views

    In the account of the expression of Christ’s love, the washing of the disciples’ feet, we see 1) Service Stated (John 13:1), 2) Service Spurned (John 13:2), 3) Service Shown (John 13:3–11), and 4) Service Shared (John 13:12-17).

    If there is one reaction that people are having to the recent Roman Catholic pope it is his history and focus on service. Many questions are arising on his Maundy Thursday washing of feet. Some are welcoming the efforts with a sense of new found enthusiasm. Others see the new pope as abandoning the ...read more
