    Why Are We Here? Series

    Contributed by Brad Bailey on Jul 22, 2009
     | 5,324 views

    The very reason we gather is in response to the Divine call of God and His purposes. The problem is that the ideas we associate with “church” can come to mean so much less.

    Why are you here? That’s the question I want to begin with today. We might naturally divide that question as to whether it refers to being here in terms of existing… or being here in this gathering. I’m referring to BOTH our purpose for being here in terms of existing… as well as being ...read more

    Jesus had a sweet spirit about him that attracted people to Him. The more we grow in Christ, the more his attitude should be seen in us.

    Submit to all human authority, because of Christ, because of your critics, and because you are free!

    At the spring 2000 opening of the Florida Senate, Donald L. Roberts, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries, offered a prayer. I think you’ll appreciate the candor of it.

    There is a reason why in the chorus of “Days of Elijah” that the phrase “It’s the year of Jubilee” happens in an entire chorus focusing on Jesus Christ. "Jubilee" is about Jesus.

    A Return To Civility: Intro Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jun 23, 2024
     | 1,856 views

    I noticed that as a society we've seemed to have lost our Civility, we no longer show one another respect. Could that be because we've lost our common morality? This is a new look at the 10 Commandments

    Earlier this year I was struck by how uncivil our society has become. I can’t remember if it was a personal encounter with someone or something I saw on the news or read on social media. But I do remember thinking: Why can’t we just be civil to each other, what can’t we just be nice? It seems that ...read more
