     | 8,944 views

    While it is normal for many to have a primary concern for self, followers of Christ are to give priority to others above self.

    True humility is a Christ-centered, realistic assessment and commitment to serve everyone.

    WHEN IT COMES TO HUMILITY, I BELIEVE J. OSWALD SANDERS, HAD A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE IN HIS BOOK “SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP” WHERE HE WROTE, “THE GREAT FAULT…IS THAT NO ONE LIKES TO BE SECOND.

     | 6,064 views

    Our value as a person has nothing to do with having our name on the up in lights. God loves us; we can’t improve on that! You don’t have to try and prove you are worthwhile by sneaking your nametag a little higher up on the table. And praise God for that!

    Luke 14:1-14 “The Religion Police” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN Luke opens chapter 14 by telling us that Jesus “went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee,” on the Sabbath and that “he was being carefully ...read more

    Do I Really Want To Become More Like Jesus?

     | 4,513 views

    This is a tough question! Do I want to become more like Jesus, or do I want God to help me become more the person that I selfishly want to be?

    Was Jesus a nice, polite, mild-mannered, good-natured young man who kept himself to himself? Was Jesus middle-of-the-road, all things to all people, politically correct, and softly spoken? Was Jesus the most inoffensive man you could ever wish to meet? I wonder what kind of gentle, meek and mild ...read more

    Jesus calls his followers to deny themselves and carry the cross. What does this look like? What does it mean to deny ourselves in a culture and society based on consumerism?

    Luke 14:25-33 “Carrying the Cross” INTRODUCTION Have you noticed that we appear to be buried under an avalanche of forms? When Faye had her shoulder surgery done this spring she sign enough forms to have killed two or perhaps three large trees. The paper work involved in ...read more
