    The story begins with, "A man had two sons." However, we call it the Prodigal Son. What about the other brother. This family dynamic is not foreign to behavior today.

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Sep 27, 2022
     | 2,213 views

    Have any of us ever tried to create a legitimate alibi for any of our illegitimate behavior? Have any of us ever made a valid excuse for our sins of omission?

    EXCUSES and ABILITIES Text: Exodus 4:10 -12 Exodus 4:10-12 But Moses said to the LORD, "O my Lord, I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor even now that you have spoken to your servant; but I am slow of speech and slow of tongue." (11) Then the LORD said to him, "Who ...read more

    This Way Out

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 28, 2023
     | 1,298 views

    We are imprisoned by sin in exactly the same way that we are imprisoned by gravity. We are prisoners of our own humanity, and it’s a life sentence with no time off for good behavior.

    When I was 12, I went on vacation with my family to a place called Iguazu Falls. Not many people in this country have ever heard of it. It’s only the second biggest waterfall in the world, after Niagara. It’s only the second highest waterfall in the world, after Victoria Falls. It’s at the top NE ...read more

    The Wisdom Of Being Inconvenienced Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 27, 2005
    based on 24 ratings
     | 7,933 views

    We fight so much for individual rights that we forget that our behavior is being watched by others - and can make a difference whether they come to Christ or not. So being free in Christ means freedom to say "no" to things we can do.

    The key to understanding Titus chapter 2 is found in verses 11 & 12. Rather than a series of rather random and possibly restrictive or even discriminatory rules - Titus 2 teaches us how to live our lives in relation to the gospel - what it has meant to us and how it shapes our lives as we relate to ...read more

    Overcoming bad habits is not an easy task, but with God’s help, it is possible. We must renew our minds, rely on the Holy Spirit, take responsibility for our actions, and remain patient in the process.

    OVERCOMING BAD HABITS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Romans 12:2 "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."

    based on 41 ratings
     | 9,064 views

    It’s much easier for us to follow rules than to allow the character of God to rule our behavior. Jesus challenges us to let go of law and let the Spirit guide.

    Let God Be Judge Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,475 views

    One of the characteristics of a worldly minded Christian is a judgmental spirit. This sermon draws a distinction between speaking the truth about sin, and lifting ourselves up as the judge over other people's behavior.

    If you have ever seen a court proceeding in England, you will have noticed that British judges and lawyers still wear Victorian era wigs at certain times in the proceedings. Most important, a judge will put on a long white wig prior to announcing the verdict to a defendant. There is a reason for ...read more

    Don’t treat sin like a weed-eater whacking away at the visible weed—go to the root of the problem. It’s a heart problem, not a behavior problem.

    INTRODUCTION In the last message I mentioned one of my favorite Presidents, Calvin Coolidge. He was known as “silent Cal,” because he was a man of few words. One day, President Coolidge was walking home from attending church and reporters gathered around him. They asked, “What ...read more

    Heart Of A Disciple

     | 6,439 views

    Today, we’re going to look at the heart of a disciple maker. It’s one thing to change a person’s behavior but quite another to change their heart.

    The Heart of a Disciple Matthew 5:8 and 1 Corinthians 13:1-8, 13 “Come, follow me.” When Jesus spoke those words to the Galilean fishermen, it changed the course of their lives. They dropped their nets and left everything and everyone behind. Over the course of the next three years, ...read more

    Gaius, A Man Who Helped Much

     | 11,487 views

    As a church leader, your behavior often determines the growth of believers and whether or not the church has a dynamic ministry for Christ. THIS is what the letter of 3 John is all about, leadership within the church.

    As we continue our studies in the writings of the Apostle John, we begin to look into the book of 3 John. My plan is to spend just two studies in this book. It is believed that John the Apostle wrote this book or letter around 85-95 AD. It was written to a man named Gaius in order to warn ...read more

    Why Divisions In The Church?

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jun 1, 2024
     | 1,027 views

    For Christians today, many practical lessons of righteous behavior are found in the teachings of the Apostle Paul. Paul opened the letter to Corinth telling them he had heard of divisions among them.

    We began studying practical teachings for everyday life for Christians taught from the Apostle Paul to Corinth. Paul opened the letter to Corinth telling them he had heard of divisions among them. A correspondence had come to him with many concerns of these divisions and other behaviors for which ...read more

    "a Man Of Mystery" Advent Iii

    The title “man of mystery” belongs to John the Baptist. John invited people to step into the water and be baptized then change their behavior. That is what it means to “make the crooked places straight, rough places smooth.”
