    The fortunes of God’s people are not determine by their bank account, but by their relationship with God.

    In China many years ago there lived an old man, with his son and a horse. Back in those days, having a horse was like owning a car today, so you can well imagine how valuable a property the animal must have been. One morning, when the man went to his field to feed the horse, the animal was gone. ...read more

    The Dangers Of Judging People Series

    Contributed by Timothy Peck on Jan 4, 2001
    based on 161 ratings
     | 23,881 views

    Judging other people is dangerous because it lulls us into a false sense of security, blinds us to our own faults, and usurps God’s role as judge.

    We Christians can be such "dorks" sometimes. We have a tendency to build our own little holy huddle, with our own special words and secret handshakes. If a person shows up who doesn’t know our special words, they feel like a fish out of water. No wonder so many unchurched seekers are deeply ...read more
