    What Does It Mean To Be "highly Favored" By God? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 22, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 16,630 views

    The prosperity gospel tells us that "favor" means God makes our lives easier and more prosperous. But here, Mary is called "highly favored." What does that mean for Mary and what can we learn from her?

    PROSPERITY GOSPEL: Some people today teach that having “God’s favor” means unlimited blessings. - This is true of prosperity gospel preachers, but it’s also true of a lot of American Christians who know a lot more about America than the New Testament. WHAT DID "FAVOR WITH GOD" ACTUALLY ...read more

    When God’s Promises Seem Too Good To Be Real Series

    Mary's response to Gabriel's message is surprising. The message is unexpectedly encouraging, yet the Bible says she was deeply troubled. Are there times when God gives us good news but we don't treat it like good news?

    THE ANGEL'S MESSAGE: Gabriel’s message was unexpectedly encouraging yet troubling to Mary. - Luke 1:28-29. - The message and the response don’t immediately line up. Let’s start with the response: v. 29 tells us that Mary was greatly troubled. Given that response, you would presume that the ...read more

    Today, we begin a new series called “Less is Greater than More with God.” And the idea for this series came out of the last one.

    Introduction: Today, we begin a new series called “Less is Greater than More with God.” And the idea for this series came out of the last one. In week four (4), if you remember, I used John the Baptist as an example of needing to let go of how we think things ought to be and let God take control of ...read more

    Roses are literally the queen of flowers. God created you great, therefore you cannot die unfulfilled and unknown. It's time to rise above limitations.

    THE ROSE THAT GREW FROM CONCRETE! Judges 11:1-6. "Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valor, but he was the son of a harlot; and Gilead begot Jephthah. 2 Gilead’s wife bore sons; and when his wife’s sons grew up, they drove Jephthah out, and said to him, “You shall have no ...read more

    Why Can Spiritual Stuff Be So Scary? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 1, 2019
     | 2,525 views

    Mary was "greatly troubled" by the appearance of the angel. Many are in a similar spot - "greatly troubled" by all things spiritual. What can help them take a step forward?

    “GREATLY TROUBLED”: Spiritual stuff can be scary. - Luke 1:29. - An angel shows up to speak to Mary. On the one hand, the angel is light and not wielding a sword, so there is a sense in which he shouldn’t be scary. But, of course, we don’t see angelic beings very often and I’m sure his presence ...read more

    Limiting What God Can Do Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 1, 2019
     | 2,610 views

    Mary expresses disbelief that she, a virgin, could fulfill the angel's prediction of a baby. We too often limit what we believe God is capable of.

    HE CAN'T DO THAT: We limit in our minds what we believe God can do. - Luke 1:34. - There is no doubt that the angel’s message about the virgin birth is a lot to take in. Because of that, it’s easy for us to be sympathetic toward Mary. We would no doubt have also struggled with this ...read more

    A Christian Point Of View

    Contributed by Dennis King on Jun 18, 2018
     | 3,273 views

    But how do we keep a 'right' point of view about Jesus and the Christmas Story in the face of so much that influences us otherwise?

    How we interpret our feelings about a particular event or circumstance is not always the same as someone else. When others take great risks in life, you might tend to label them foolhardy. When you take chances, you are adventurous. If someone else suggests a correction, are they nit-picky or ...read more

    The Holy Spirit is a helper in all ways

    Often, we Christians associate the Holy Spirit with speaking in tongues, but beyond that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity(Father, Son and Holy Spirit) who was there at creation, moving over the face of the deep to bring about form (Gen. 1:1-2, 26-27).

    If Mary’s response to the angel was an enthusiastic “yes,” then we can look to her parents for their own constant response to God’s commands, their answer of “yes” to His will.

    The Lord Jesus is so so awesome, you cannot know him and not fall in love with him. Just to think about him brings joy into the human soul. So amazing is the Lord.
