    Running On Empty

    Contributed by Brian Bill on May 7, 2003

     | 91,773 views

    I want to take a look at an individual who was maxed-out emotionally. He was running on empty and had no margin left in his life. After he took it to the limit, God intervened, and in the process, taught him a few things.

    Running on Empty Some of you know that I like to work out. I enjoy running, bike riding and the stair stepper. When we lived in Rockford, I went to the Fitness Center one day and decided to try out the treadmill. It didn’t look all that difficult so I jumped on and started walking. After a few ...read more

    Sacrifice is a word that few people enjoy hearing about unless it is in baseball. When a runner is on third base and the hitter hits a deep fly ball to left field, he is credited with belting a sacrifice fly to bring the runner home.

    Presenting Yourselves as a Living Sacrifice (Romans 12:1-10) Sacrifice is a word that few people enjoy hearing about unless it is in baseball. When a runner is on third base and the hitter hits a deep fly ball to left field, he is credited with belting a sacrifice fly to bring the runner home. ...read more

    based on 30 ratings
     | 8,225 views

    Success in the Christian life isn’t all about our effort. While we must make an effort we are not left to do it alone. However, we can have assurance of success without yet realizing the success.

    An Anchor for the Soul Hebrews 6:13–20 INTRODUCTION At the time of his death, this man’s work appeared in twenty-six hundred newspapers worldwide, and was the basis of a franchise earning $1 billion a year. Since its modest debut in just seven papers on October 2, 1950, his comic strip became a ...read more

    There is no more helpless feeling in the world than being a parent with a dying child. That was the experience of the man in today’s passage. Out of his desperation, he came to Jesus. But because of the grace of Christ, that’s not how he left.

    http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ Many of you remember what was going on last year in Lakeland, FL. Around this time last year, Todd Bentley began making national headlines for the Lakeland Revival. Reports of 10,000 people per night came to see him and participate in these events.

    Remember Rodney King's words? After having his rights violated, being beaten and left disfigured he coined a phrase that will out live him. He said "Can't we all just get along".

    The Other Cup Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 28, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,497 views

    Which cup have you chosen to drink from? The love of God, poured out in Jesus Christ, is complete, unlimited and unmixed; the wrath of God is simply what’s left over when his love is refused.

    One of the things that still divides our denomination is the matter of “inclusive language.” It’s a difference that lines up pretty much the same way as all the other hot-button issues, with theological liberals on one side and theological conservatives on the other. But there ...read more

    Jesus knew and suffered due to the reality of sin in the human heart. But when He physically left the earth, His message was not a pessimistic one. Summarizing who he was and what difference this should make for everyone is stated in what is known as the

    Avid readers often will credit this or that writer for luring them into a lifelong love of a genre.

     | 5,927 views

    At the end of the thousand years the Devil is to be loosed temporarily from the Abyss (20:7), but he has not learned his lesson; he begins where he has left off. He will assemble the nations for the final attack on God.

     | 23,227 views

    As the Israelites left Egypt, we expect them to be overjoyed and happy because their prayers for deliverance were finally answered, but instead we find an ungrateful and irreverent nation. How often we grumble between Egypt and the promised land.

    Grumbling in the Camp Introduction: There is always something to complain about, even when there isn't. We can find a grievance if we want to. No matter how unreasonable it is. We grumble when its too hot, we grumble when it's too cold. We grumble when it rains. We grumble when it snows. We ...read more

    This opportunity to teach one of the most valuable lessons, a lesson that the disciples would struggle with, a lesson they were struggling with (James and John wanted to sit on the right and left hand in His kingdom) and a lesson that you and I struggle with!!

    John 13:1-5 (NKJV) 1 Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. 2 And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart ...read more

    The first disciples were willing to step out in faith to follow Jesus. The writer says "They left their nets." What nets do we need to leave behind so we can follow Jesus?

    Fishing and Fighting: Leave Your Safety Nets “We all have one thing in common,” says Brene Brown, “we’re sick of feeling afraid. We’re tired of the national conversation centering on “What we should fear” and “Who we should blame.” She points out a spiritual problem; fear is everywhere. With ...read more
