One Sunday morning, while sitting next to her first grade daughter in church, Susan Wright noticed the little one looking at the open Bible in her lap. 2. In a low whisper, she asked, "Did God really write that?" Susan quietly ...read more

    Faith is not about a church doctrine or power or privilege. It is about service to others-service to the point of sacrifice. It can be expressed equally through individual actions and experiences.

    What is the one human quality that drives us to success while causing all sorts of problems at the same time? It is ambition. Ambition is one of the driving forces in our lives. It propels us to excel in our jobs. It pushes us to reach our goals. It can give us a reason for living. Ambition is one ...read more

    Jude delivers a full on assault against those who wear the livery of the Faith while denying the authority the Lord has instituted for mankind.

    “Yet in like manner these people also, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and blaspheme the glorious ones. But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, was disputing about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a blasphemous judgment, but said, ...read more

     | 8,645 views

    This is an examination of how the early Church used the monetary funds contributed by its members. The practice of the early Church, under the directions of the Apostles, gives us a pattern to follow today.

There has never been a great deal of disagreement among brethren over this matter. Christians generally agree that it is right to contribute to a general fund to ...read more

    Jesus says we must all choose between God and our stuff. Increasing our hoard or serving our Lord; getting more space or getting more grace. The choice is ours.

    Paul address a specific sin in the life of the Thessalonian church - the sin of being an active, but idle, busy body. This sin is a blind-spot in the life of the Thessalonian church. All blind spots need to be addressed before we get to a point where the kingdom is better off without us.

    In our world where trying to get ahead of one another seems to be the rule, God asks us to consider a new reality: to love genuinely and reciprocally, to clutch that which is good and to compete to show the most integrity.

    Have you ever thought about the legacy you want to leave behind when you die? I’m not talking about a physical legacy such as the things you own. I’m talking about how you want people to remember you. The type of legacy you leave behind will depend on the kind of life you lead on earth. ...read more
