    Walking with God should be easier than we make it. Should be like breathing... a basic block of life! Breathe in the things of God, breathe out ministry. Simple... but profound. It starts by examining your life...

    Life: The Unexamined Life Galatians 6: 7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8 The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9 Let us not become ...read more

    The Heart Of A Servant

     | 2,970 views

    Good morning church! I want to explore the valuable lessons on having a servant's heart that we can learn from 1 Timothy 6:11-12. As we look into this passage, let us be inspired by the example of the apostle Paul and reflect on how we can cultivate the heart of a true servant in our own lives.

    The Sabbath is a transformative tradition, an antidote to anxiety. We are restless till we find our rest in God. We set aside our anxieties and busyness, our pursuit of more, and we recognize that our refuge is God alone.

    The President of local synagogue, and a close friend of mine, asked me if I knew the most sacred Jewish holy day. I said it must be either Passover or Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). He smiled and said, “No, it’s the Sabbath. It is the most important day in the Jewish ...read more
