    Everyone wants to feel welcomed, but our society makes people feel unappreciated. Fortunately, the cross declares that this is not the way God deals with us. We are choosen by God.

    We live in a cutthroat society. Our schools and our culture are designed for competition. And we live our lives with an “I’m better than you” mentality. Many of us were taught to go to school, get good grades, and get a good job. And once you graduate, send out as many resumes as possible because ...read more

    Jesus established His church to be a place where we could develop friendships... and where we could become His friends.

    OPEN: Some years ago Collier’s Magazine published a story about a little girl in an orphanage. She was quite unattractive and had many annoying habits, which resulted in her being shunned by the children and disliked by the staff. The director of the orphanage looked for a good excuse to ship her ...read more

     | 32,197 views

    There are many benefits to abiding in the vine; having our prayers answered, bearing much fruit, and eternal life with Christ in heaven.

    Are you bearing fruit? We need to be bearing fruit. It is a calling of God for His children. He states it very clearly in John 15:16. “You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my ...read more

    The Strength Of Sacrifice Series

     | 5,727 views

    As we try to put ourselves into a position to be able to share the gospel with others, there are few things that will get their attention more than self-sacrifice.

    A. Self-sacrifice. A word we are not too familiar with, right? 1. Certainly, we understand its meaning. It is not too hard to define, but it is hard to embrace and embody. Wouldn’t you agree? 2. And yet when we witness self-sacrifice, we are drawn to it. We are amazed by it. 3. Sacrifice ...read more

    God wants us to bear fruit that will last. We can do that by remaining connected to Jesus, the true vine.

    What does it mean to be human? That’s the question we’ve been asking since the beginning of February when we began this series on humanity. What is the nature of true personhood? How can we best fulfill God’s desire for us his creatures, us his people? We’ve seen how God made men and women in his ...read more

    Worth Dying For Series

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Nov 4, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,710 views

    There is no wonder that God considered us worthy dying for, when one realises how intimately He knows us! His love for you is so deep that he has numbered every hair on your head – and maybe renumbers them when some fall out!

    Today is a day that needs little help in explanation or purpose-description. The message of the sacrifice of Canadian troops and allied forces for the freedom of the world from dominating forces in World War I and the threat of Fascist and Nazi rule in World War II is not hard to understand.
