What Movie Is Playing In Your Mind?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 15, 2017

What we see in our minds is critical to our ability to walk in this life as Jesus did when He was on earth. But far too many of us allow "movies" to play that should be deleted.

An article in a recent USA Today reported that in an online survey of 1000 adults, “three-quarters of Americans believe the country was better off in the ‘80s than now.” What is noteworthy about the poll is that some who answered in the affirmative weren’t even alive during the 1980s. Isn’t that ...read more

The God Of The Box - "More Than Enough” God Series

Pagans doubt God because they try to put Him in a box. But Christians sometimes doubt because they forget that He was in the box to begin with.

OPEN: (I had brought a large cardboard box on stage that my children had turned into a house) I suppose some of you have wondered what this is. Does anybody know what I have on stage with me? That’s right - it’s a box. But, it’s not just any box. This is a marvelous box. This is the creation of ...read more

Feed The Dogs Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Oct 16, 2009

Dumb Dogs Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on May 14, 2013

Jesus is not impressed with the outward trappings of self-righteousness. He is impressed with a heart full of simple faith, which we find most often in the hearts of those we least expect. So like Jesus feed the "dogs" and touch the "dumb."

Fire Upon Thine Altar

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Aug 14, 2002

This text separates those who are spiritually pretense from those who are spiritually intense. It is like the question the demon’s asked of the seven sons of Sceva, “Paul, we know, Jesus we know, but who are you?”

Fire Upon Thine Altar Leviticus 6:13 The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.

"if I Can Only ..."

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Feb 26, 2023

“Do not fear, only believe” and “give God time.” We may not be able to predict how or even when God is going to act but we can be certain that He will.

As he rushed towards the shore, his heart sank as he saw how many people were already there. How was he ever going to get close enough to Him to plead for his daughter’s life … but still.
