    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 8, 2015
     | 4,024 views

    We are all trying to navigate through life putting God first. God encourages us to embrace a curriculum of wisdom. Wisdom will guide us through the complexities of uncertainty about what to do and the clarity to do what we should do.

    The Complexities and Simplicities of Wisdom (Proverbs 23:9-12) 1. A businessman on his deathbed called his good friend and said, "Luigi, I want you to promise me that when I die you will have my remains cremated."

    Heaven’s Definition Of Greatness

     | 5,549 views

    Sometimes we have the idea that if we follow Jesus we are guaranteed to receive a reward. When that happens we forget that Jesus’ ministry was one of serving others. He gave himself for the sake of others, including suffering for their salvation.

    In Mark 10:35-45, Jesus once again told his disciples everything that would happen to him in Jerusalem-his trial, death, resurrection and ascension. James and John seized this opportunity to ask for the highest positions of honour in his kingdom-at the right and left hands of Jesus. They forgot ...read more

    Don’t take people at face value and so become a stupid judge and a judged sinner. Instead, be quick to love even those you might prejudge as unworthy.

The Ameriquest Mortgage Company sponsored the commercial, and it came with a powerful message. Take a look… (show Americaquest Cat Commercial video) A man ...read more

    John tells us that a true child of God seeks to be gracious and generous.

    The theme of this portion of 1 John is love. But instead of portraying the need for believers to love one another in a positive light, John speaks to us about loving one another by emphasizing the negative. In these verses, he tells us what a lack of love will lead to. 1. Murder - vs. ...read more

    We take the lowest place to imitate the Trinity

    The term “Trinity” does not appear even once in the Sacred Scriptures. Theophilus of Antioch used it to describe God about 150 years after Christ’s death and resurrection, so it may have come into usage some time before that. What it means is that God exists as one God, one ...read more

    CANCELED DEBT (part two) Recap: What are improper responses to our canceled debt? We start accumulating more debt. People claim bankruptcy and then go right back to accumulating more debt. Why?
