    based on 90 ratings
     | 5,126 views

    If Jesus had a passion for "sinners" why do they feel so unwelcome in our churches today?

    Illus.: Four Preachers Confess Four preachers met for a friendly gathering. During the conversation one preacher said, “Our people come to us and pour out their hears, confess certain sins and needs. Let’s do the same. Confession is good for the soul.” In due time all agree. One of them said that ...read more

    "The Un-Named Woman" Series

    If we have trouble expressing love, maybe it’s because we haven’t experienced forgiveness. We can learn much from Jesus and a woman with no name.

    Two of the ‘women of faith’ in the new Testament have no names…One is a woman who, after twelve years of living with an ailment, touched the garment of Jesus as he was on his way to resurrect a girl from death. Yearning to touch Jesus and out of desperation, Jesus says to the woman, “Your faith ...read more

    The Pharisee thought Jesus was clueless about who was at the dinner table. It was the pharisee what was clueless.

    I have been reading my Bible through again this year. When I came to the passage of scriptures about the Old Testament Tabernacle, I became intrigued with this thought, "God wants to have a romantic dinner with us." He has a table (Shew Bread) prepared for us in the Holy Place. It even has the ...read more

     | 26,532 views

    The example of the Master in being a comfort to people who have suffered loss.

    Actually, Jesus never had to conduct a funeral. No one ever died or stayed dead in His immediate presence. That’s because He is the resurrection and the life! (John 11:25) He did, however, come to the aid of those in sorrow over death, and by so doing left a great example for those of us who ...read more

    A look at brokenness and how God wants us to be broken and turn to him for restoration. And from that restoration, we will become much stronger.

    Good morning, So how many of you have heard the cliché…"if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it"…? Most people tend to abide by that with the exception of boys between 2 and 6. My youngest son, Dylan, fell into this category. And he still does to a certain extent. When he was 3 or 4, we were visiting ...read more
