    There are few more perplexing questions of the Bible than this: If He knew that Judas would betray Him in the end, why did Jesus choose Judas as a disciple to begin with?. And what does Jesus have to teach us by choosing someone to be his disciple, knowing full well he would betray him?

    Judas the traitor. Walking with Jesus but following Satan. John 13: 21-27 Every story needs a villain and Judas Iscariot fills this role in the gospels. He is the apostle who betrayed Jesus and helps the Jewish authorities to arrest him. Judas enjoyed a privileged position among Jesus' ...read more

    Are you a leader? A mentor? Are you a disciple? A follower? God says we all need someone to be a role model in our life. Ultimately, He wants you to be one to someone else as well.

    I was reading about a Pastor one Sunday that had a lady leaving out of the church that said: “Pastor, that was a model sermon.” The Pastor felt pretty good about the statement until he got home and looked up the word “model” in the dictionary and read this: “Model, a small imitation of the real ...read more

    Unlike modern promoters of goods and services, who shade the truth, Jesus’ commissioning of his disciples was candid and complete -- with both warnings and promises.

    Truth in Advertising Ps. 89:1-18, Micah 7:1-7, Romans 6:3-11, Matt. 10:34-42 Some years ago there was a film about a group of crazy people – I think that was the title of the film: Crazy People – in which a group of patients in a mental institution began to write advertising.
