Let God Do His Thing

Complacent Faith

Contributed by Kamalanathan Francis on Aug 26, 2021

Complacency is a contagious belief and practice rising among many. The individualistic society seeks to embrace even complacent faith with pride.

Well, 500 years before Christ, Amos was sent to Israelites to warn their complacency (Amos 4:1-5 / 6:1-6) not to condemn but to point their way forward. They had their law, teachers, and religious leaders, but not God because they were following their own self-absorbed life. Due to the complacent ...read more

Selling Out To God Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 20, 2021

Jesus's Parable of Hidden Treasure teaches all-out commitment to the kingdom of God. Christianity is not a little add-on to our busy, selfish life. It is a call to something so valuable that we would give up everything else to have it.

Last week we began a message entitled “Valuing the Valuable.” That teaching led us to the Parable of the Treasure in Matthew 13:44. That is our text for today. There Jesus said, “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes ...read more
