Nothing Just Happens

Contributed by Jerry Gatson on Jan 17, 2020

Just Do It!

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 5, 2013

Let’s not just learn what God says. Let’s Just Do it! You haven't really learned the Word until you live the Word. We often are hearers of the Word and not doers. We learn and teach God’s Word more than obeying it ourselves.

Opening illustration: A church had a new pastor who preached the same sermon every Sunday. When people started complaining, he told the congregation, “I’ll preach a new sermon when you act on this one.” That pastor’s statement reminds me of the words of the apostle James: ...read more

Just Another Manger

Contributed by Bob Joyce on Nov 10, 2010

Angels' music, while sweet, was not designed to be a resting place for a baby's head. Since cribs are not found in stables, the only thing that could serve that purpose was something as simple as the feeding trough of the stable animals ... the manger.

The sun was setting over ancient Palestine, as it had done so many times before. The wife of the manger-maker walked to the back door of the little workshop in the back of the house, as she had done so many times before. She went there to tell her husband that the evening meal was ready. ...read more
