    Conflict is inevitable. Watch your heart in a conflict. Focus on the heart of the matter. Seek to please the heart of Christ.

    Just like to share with you a funny story at the start. A man was stranded all alone on the desert island for years before he was finally rescued. His rescuers asked him what the 3 huts were that he had built on the island. It’s perplexing for one man to have 3 structures. He said one ...read more

    What had Martha done wrong? Wasn't she being a servant? Wasn't she serving Jesus and his men? Was Jesus telling her she shouldn't have been preparing the meal? Or was there something else wrong here?

    When our work proceeds out of a devotion to Jesus, we will not be without our critics.

    AT THE FEET OF JESUS. John 12:1-8. It has been remarked as remarkable that on three occasions when we meet Mary of Bethany in the Scriptures, she is found at the feet of Jesus. In Luke 10:39 she is sitting at the feet of Jesus. In John 11:32 Mary is prostrated at His feet. In John 12:3 she is ...read more

    I was thinking about whether there is just 'one thing' that is most needed in life. So I looked up that phrase…one thing. Here’s what I read in the Gospel of Luke

    A choice to make… Jan. 2, 2011 Intro: - how would you rate your 2010? Good year? Bad year? Physically or spiritually? Do you feel closer to God or does it feel like He’s further away? - do you think you made good choices in 2010? - we’ve just had a busy season, busy ...read more

    Unpacks fellowship with the Lord through Mary & Martha spoken at a funeral of a believer.

    Read the scripture Luke 10:38 -42. The greatest possession I have chosen this passage of Mary and Martha meeting Jesus because the story of these two sisters reminds me a great deal of our dear sister Grace and points us to the greatest possession any person can obtain. From this passage ...read more

    This message is from a series that looks at God's desire for us to live life in a way that avoids being overloaded and overextended.

    Busyness and productivity are values that seem to be held high in our culture. In fact, these values are looked on quite favorably in the church. We often live as though busyness is next to Godliness. Dr. J. Grant Howard describes our culture this way, “Some people can’t say no. They ...read more

    At The Feet Of Jesus

    This sermon was a part of a series I did during our church's annual 21-day church-wide fast. We were looking at different elements of a fast. This message focuses on a fast as a time to simply sit at the feet of Jesus and enjoy His presence.

    Today I want to take a closer look at the life of a woman we meet in the Bible. She seems to have this “intimacy with God” thing figured out about as well as anyone. Her name is Mary. And the interesting thing about Mary is where you often find her in relation to Jesus in various ...read more

     | 7,307 views

    Choosing what is best is often counter-intuitive. Christians are responsible to choose what is best.

    “Now as they went on their way, Jesus entered a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him as a guest. She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to what he said. But Martha was distracted with all the preparations she had to make, so she came up ...read more
