    Selfless Obedience (Mother's Day) Series

    Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Jun 11, 2013
     | 14,737 views

    Selflessness is the key characteristic in Jesus' command to take up our crosses and follow him. The stories of Jochebed, Hannah, and Mary (Jesus' mother) illustrate selflessness.

    One of the critical characteristics of a follower of Jesus is almost completely non-existent in our society. Now I say “almost”, because there are still times when we see and celebrate it, but those times are largely times of extremes. The prevailing “wisdom” is completely ...read more

     | 5,870 views

    Many Christians begin with zeal, but get sidetracked along the way. Some are distracted with career ambitions. Others let hobbies or other interests take more and more time. The most heartbreaking is when someone is sidetracked by a false doctrine. Message expounds Philippians 3:15-21.

    Intro In our study of Philippians, we find ourselves in the last seven verses of chapter 3. In the verses just prior to this text Paul introduced the metaphor of running a race like they run in the Olympics. His instruction there was that we keep our focus on the finish line; we do not look back; ...read more

    Sometimes speaking the truth will not be accepted, but many times we are called to Stand Up for God's Truth and don't understand how it will be used for God's Glory.

    Grace Under Fire Acts 7:54-60 The Stoning of Stephen 54 When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 “Look,” he ...read more

    Message deals with current deception "Progressive Christianity" while expounding Philippians 3:19. Many young Evangelicals are being drawn into the Progressive Christianity error which denies Christ as only way of salvation and supports ungodly lifestyles.

    We are at a crucial time in our nation, and the best response we can have to all that’s going on around us is to seek the Lord. As Christians we should vote responsibly. We should be light and salt. We should engage the culture with the truth of God’s word. But our most powerful weapon against evil ...read more

    As we look at what it means to be a Christian the first fundamental issue we will look at is selflessness.

    Selflessness: Fundamentals July 11, 2010 Luke 9:23-27 Intro: One of the purposes of a sabbatical is to get some space from the day-to-day demands, to “step back” and gain some different perspectives, and to return with something new to offer. First I want to say “thank ...read more

    Jesus taught that if we give up our pride, problems and personal agenda we will gain His power, perspective and promises.

    Giving up Little to Gain Much (Luke 9:23-26) Jesus said, "If anyone will come after me let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever saves (holds on to his rights) will lose them, but whoever loses (gives up his personal rights)his life for my sake will save it." ...read more
