    When The Buck Stops With You--Deciding About Jesus Series

     | 1,922 views

    The issue of principles for spiritual decision-making can make or break a life; make or break a destiny. Pontius Pilate faced a critical decision about Jesus. His mistakes provide wisdom when the buck stops with us.

And we know, of course, it is going to be a fatal ...read more

    The Weakness of the Church Do you have a weakness? For me, one of my weaknesses is chocolate. I love to fill my whole mouth with chocolate. Have you noticed a lot of TV is about rich, pretty, “perfect” people? But that is not reality – The Hills are a delusion! We all have weaknesses and ...read more

    We noted last week from Luke 14 that selfish pride ignores God and will lead to troubles.

    There are different kinds of vessels in the house of God. So you will do well to examine what kind of vessel you are. Let me clear one thing before we go deeper into this message: God will not accept any excuse from anyone for not being a useful vessel.
