    The division (fueled by things like - COVID, masks and a presidential election...etc) between people who were redeemed and set free by the blood of Jesus and who claim to be following after Him... must stop!

    We can know the price of an item but not necessarily understand what it's going to cost us. Jesus asks us to make and informed and deliberate decision about deciding to follow Him by outlining what it's going to cost us. (spoiler alert: it's everything - but it's worth it.)

    Everyday Heroes

    God calls us to be heroes not only in extraordinary circumstances, but in our daily lives.

    I) Let’s talk a bit about heroes. A) I love to read adventure thrillers. One of the authors that I used to read a lot (while he was living) was Robert Ludlum. His stories were frequently built around an average citizen who sees or hears something that he should not have. He then becomes caught up ...read more

    Discipleship

    When Jesus speaks about counting the cost to be his disciple he made it clear that following him would cost us our life of ease, our money and our time. To be a disciple of Jesus means we are the salt the preserving force in this world in which we live in.

    One must seriously consider what it means to follow Christ and what commitment is needed to be a Christian.

    I ADMIT IT! I HAVE A TENDENCY TO BE “CHEAP”! WHEN FACING UTILITY BILLS, CAR REPAIR, MEDICAL CO-PAYS, OR HOME REPAIRS, I ALWAYS SEEM TO AKS ONE PARTICULAR QUESTION FIRST: HOW MUCH IS THIS GOING TO COST? IT IS AN HONEST QUESTION.

    Many Christians don’t think it matters much if they allow a few sinful activities in their lives. The truth is, the failure to surrender ALL changes the entire fabric of what your life looks like in the spiritual realm.

    Being Salt Series

    Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus turned the instruction from character qualities of his followers to their function in the world as salt and light. Matthew 5:13 warns about failing to function as salt.

    Intro We have found in our study of the Beatitudes that a certain kind of person is blessed (approved and favored by God). This follower of Christ has the same characteristics developed in him that we see in Christ. He is poor in spirit, mournful of anything that does not glorify God, meek, etc. It ...read more

    It’s Worth The Cost

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 27, 2022
     | 3,640 views

    If we are truly going to be Jesus’ disciple, there will be a cost involved. And for those willing to make that sacrifice, God will be able to pour out His power and glory through that person.

    Please turn with me to Luke 14. Sometimes when I say the word “Luke” I want to go all Star Wars! L-U-K-E. (Laughter) The more I spend time in the gospels, the more I see that what Jesus asks of us, He has already had to do Himself. When Jesus taught what He taught, He not only spoke from a ...read more

    Salt Seasons: To treat or to prepare for use, to give more flavor. Spiritual saltiness - Do not blend in. You add salt to enhance the flavor of food. We are the salt that God uses to lead hungry people to food. But if we are not 'salty' enough we are of no-good use. We have become ...read more
