    Redefining The Family Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 24, 2006

    What is God’s Family and how do you join it? Jesus redefines family, contrasts it with our earthly family and tells us how to join and what it’s like in his family.

    The idea of family is always morphing in our society. Just in the past fifty years we’ve gone from June Cleaver to Uma Thurman. In the 1950’s the woman wore pearls and waited in high heels for her man to come home so she could greet him with a martini, a paper and dinner on the table. Today in ...read more

    Communication is important and the most importnat communication is of the word of God. And when it comes to God’s word do we have ears?

    “Do We Have Ears?” Luke Chapter 8 Last week we finished up a five week series on the Impact of the Cross.

    Where Is Your Faith?

    The encounter in the storm tells us we need to (1) put our trust in God; (2) do not let fear paralyze us, and (3) faith comes from knowing the Word of God.

    Jesus asked, “Where is your faith?” I believe this is the same question the Lord would like to ask us today. Where is your faith? Where or what do you put your trust in? In yourself – your own wisdom and strength? Your career? Your family? No human being can live without faith in someone or ...read more

    We may never be completely isolated from many of the storms of life, but we can know God’s peace in the midst of the storm.

    Mark 4:35-41 It is fascinating to hear stories of people who have survived tragic events. Someone makes it out alive of a landslide. Someone survives a crash. Someone survives after days at sea. We are never promised to come out alive, but we can know survival in our hearts if we trust Jesus. ...read more

    How To Keep Objective in Emotional Situations (Luke 8:22-25)

    It is sad how many people allow their emotions to cloud their ability to think objectively. When emotions get in the way of objective reasoning we tend to say and do things that we later regret. Jesus knew how to calm the storm in human emotions. Example: One day Jesus said to his disciples, ...read more

    Those storms in our lives don’t always come from our sin-- in fact, following Christ will lead us directly into the eye of the storm.

    1. ALL PROBLEMS IN LIFE ARE NOT RELATED TO SIN! The Jews believed strongly that if something bad happened to someone, they had done some sort of sin. If a person was stricken with an illness it reflected on some sort of sin. If he suffered financial loss, it was sin-related.. If his children grew ...read more

    There is no sin that is too big for God’s forgiveness.

    The story of the Geresene Demoniac. This story gives me chills. There is so much meaning beyond the words written on the page. There are so many questions to be asked. Jesus enters a town that is obviously not filled with Jews. The first question to be asked is, Are they Gentiles or Heathens. We ...read more
