    In life's storms, we must keep our focus on Christ, overcoming fear, distractions, and doubt.

Same thing happens when we lose focus on Jesus, we start to trip up in life. Let's check out a story in the Bible where Peter lost his focus on ...read more

    We live in a "me centered" world and that creeps into the church and I try to make spiritual things about what I want.

    Allow me to begin with a little test. (I did an illusion called "What Next" where the dots on a card change and the audience is fooled.) Isn't it true that our eyes play tricks on us and we can be easily deceived? Here are some Bible passages that warn us of this. 2 Corinthians 11:2-4 2I am ...read more

Are they a sign of God¡¦s anger or displeasure? Do they happen by chance? How should we react to them? Certainly some of our sufferings and ...read more
