     | 6,887 views

    When we lose our ways emotionally or spiritually, we hurt ourselves and others. Herod, Herodias and Salome demonstrate the ways we can be seduced into losing our heads. John only lost his physical head but not his integrity.

"If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their ...read more

    Envy and self-satisfaction are destructive forces in the life of God’s children.

    Text: “For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and every evil practice” (James 3:16). I would venture to say that all of us have harbored envy at some time in our life time. It is not uncommon for us to resent someone because they have accomplished something in ...read more
