    The consequences of the resurrection for a young adult audience – the outline of which is largely "borrowed" from Bill Hybels at the Willow Creek website.

    The If/Thens of Easter by Mike Sares It’s Easter time. Time to eat all the candy and marshmallow eggs. Time to pig out. There’s gotta be a nicer word for pig out. A euphemism, as it were.

    Before Paul became a Christian, he was full of energy for the wrong thing, but once he was tamed and changed by Jesus Christ, he used his energy for the right cause. Three ways Paul was changed by Jesus.

     | 8,019 views

    All this leads me to an important subject I have been wanting to address. What is it? It is the temptation to believe that earthly honors will automatically result in heavenly rewards.

    IT’S TIME TO LAUGH NO CONFIDENCE IN THE FLESH Philippians 3:1-11 A while ago I talked with a man who said that he needed to work harder at being happier. That got my attention. He said he’d been raised in an ultraserious home. He said, My parents taught us that we could achieve whatever we ...read more

I remember dressing up in silly costumes and going door to door begging for candy. When I was ...read more

    Giving Christ the supreme position in our lives is a decision we make. Paul opens his letter to the Colossian church with a reminder that he was sent by God.

    The Holy Spirit offers his influence but he does not guarantee his empowerment. If we are not prepared to exercise the proper spirit toward the Spirit we will lose the intended blessing and anointing of God.

    ¡§Scrooge¡¨ is a classic story that emphasis the ¡§what¡¨ against ¡§what if¡¨. It is the story of a wealthy, miserly businessman who does not know any joy in life nor wills for anyone else to taste the same. He use to have heart but it died some years before. The spirits of Christmas past, present ...read more

    Logically Ruth should not be in the genealogy of Jesus. As a Moabite she is from a despised nation and the only person seeking to be an example to her is Naomi - a woman who is bitter and angry at God. Yet God moves in mysterious ways to include Ruth.
