    based on 4 ratings

    "Grace is giving or receiving something that is needed but not deserved." That definition fits beautifully into many places where the word "grace" is used in the New Testament.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK There is a very interesting Greek word in the Bible that we translate into the English word "grace." And this word "grace" is used time & time again throughout the New Testament. In fact, let's turn to the ...read more

    Doing Something Extra With The Ordinary

    Contributed by Stephen Epps on Sep 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,007 views

    Faith is a reductionism of the greatest kind. For in Jesus, the "extraordinary" is nothing more than the "ordinary" things in life PUT TOGETHER to achieve an "extraordinary" feat.

    Beloved, I would like to engage your hearts and minds for the next few minutes, from the subject, “Doing Something Extra With The Ordinary” Beloved, in his painting “Walking on the Water”, one can nearly hear the rhythmic splashing underneath. One can almost feel the ...read more

    based on 15 ratings
     | 29,710 views

    We are taught here in John that we know that we have passed out of death into life because we love the brethren. Love of the brethren is a proof of sonship. People with a heart for God have a heart for people.

    I Love You -- Anyway

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Feb 13, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,705 views

    "Liking" and "Loving" are two different things. We may not like but we are called to love. The church is a cohesive body of believers who display the love of God among themselves and to the world around them.

    1. I’m Fine I’m afraid that we tend to be like the fellow in the old story who showed up for a court hearing concerning an accident in which he had been involved.

    Exercising A Dynamic Faith Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Jun 4, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,198 views

    We have observed dead faith and demonic faith, both of which are useless to us. This lesson focuses in on dynamic faith which is essential. The lesson holds up Abraham and Rahab, two people at opposite ends of the spectrum as examples of proper faith.

    1. Some apparent dilemmas: • “Look before you leap” vs. “He who hesitates is lost.” • Proverbs 26.4-5: 4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself. 5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own ...read more

    Mud In Your Eye

     | 7,000 views

    Jesus tells us to walk by faith and not by sight. When we do that we give sight to all those all around us. Trust Jesus to open your eyes to the love of God and the forgiveness that is yours in Jesus. Jesus says wash away the mud from your eyes.

    Mud in your eye John 9:1-21 Have you ever played in the mud? Maybe you made mud pies. Maybe you are one of those people who like tractor pulls or monster truck rallies. Some of you may have had a mud facial. Jesus found a very interesting use for mud one Sunday afternoon. He used it as a ...read more
