    The church is an organization that will have a similar life cycle as any living person. Is it possible that some churches need to die so new church's are born? Is your church fulfilling the spiritual needs of its membership.

    Are you the rebellious son, lost and far from God? Are you the self-righteous Pharisee, no longer capable of rejoicing when a sinner returns to God?

    Luke 15:11-24 'And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ (Luke 15:23, 24) Is Re-found really a word? Well, technically, no. But for this devotional and this lesson ...read more

    God can see us all the time, whether we acknowledge him or not.

    How many of you have played peek-a-boo with a baby? Fun, isn’t it? But eventually they figure out that you can see them even when they can’t see you, and the thrill goes away. It’s a control thing, I think... they’re learning that what they do has an effect on their environment, and sometimes it ...read more
