     | 6,917 views

    Most teachings about “strongholds” tend to focus on how it hinders spiritual growth. But strongholds can also be the stabilizing force in spiritual maturity.

    A number of years ago the founder of a well-known Christian organization responded to a question about tithing in his blog. The man asking the question was married with three young children.

    A study of the danger posed when experts assume control over a society, over a community, or over a church. The message is a call to participatory Christianity.

    “Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, ‘The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat, so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice. They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people’s shoulders, but they ...read more

  • Happiness Through - Mercy (Beatitudes) Series

    Contributed by Thomas Bartlett on Nov 2, 2020
     | 2,668 views

    Every one of us will need every one of us to forego or forgive or overlook so much. When we wrong people, we need relief from that. Not justice, that would be punishment or repaying. We need mercy.

    Happiness In An Unsettling World Steele Creek Church, Eastfield Campus Dr. Tom Bartlett – October 18, 2020 Matthew 5:7 Mercy OUTLINE “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.” (Vs. 7) Mercy: “Love in Action” The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in ...read more

  • Pharisee Or Holiness?

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Oct 22, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,875 views

    There are many who would argue that a Pharisee and one who believes in holiness are one in the same. I beg to differ. True holiness affects the external and the internal. It affects the acts and the attitude.

    Are you a Pharisee or are you Holiness? Let us see if there is a difference and determine to understand why some people have trouble differentiating between the two. Pharisee = a person in the role of religious service who believes that his or her title and/or office automatically make him or her ...read more

  • Weightless Faith

    Contributed by Trae Durden on Dec 5, 2014
     | 4,030 views

    We hear Jesus say “My yoke is easy, My burden is light” (Mt. 11:30). And we choose to run with that “easy” life! We love to forget that He also said, ““If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (Mt. 16:24)

    Weightless Faith Philippians 3:17-21 Is the Christian life only about avoiding wrong? Is an “Avoidance” lifestyle all that God expects of us or is there more? Like bringing Glory to God in faith by taking action! Serving others! We hear Jesus say “My yoke is easy, My burden is ...read more

  • Violent Bands Of Pharisees Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 22, 2020
     | 2,155 views

    To convict someone who died in the thirteenth century for actions that were considered heroic and kingly then, but that some people take offense to today is particularly ironic.

    Tuesday of the 21st Week in Course 2020 It’s providential that the Church has given us a series of hard-hitting readings during the past month–hard-hitting but full of the Trinity’s love and compassion. It is particularly fitting that in a year when violent bands of Pharisees are roaming the ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 24, 2019
     | 2,263 views

    Our prayers often look ineffective, but they are like dripping water on the rock of our heart and the stony hearts of other people for whom we pray.

    Tuesday of the 21st Week in Course 2019 St. Monica St. Luke tells us in the sixteenth chapter of the Acts of the Apostles that on his second missionary journey, St. Paul went to familiar communities in Anatolia–Asia Minor–and intended to evangelize all of that huge area. But the Holy Spirit, the ...read more

  • The Joy Of Giving Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 5,108 views

    God puts a really interesting proposition in front of us. He says, “Put me to the test” when it comes to your money. “Try it my way,” God says, “and see if my way works.”

    We are doing a yearlong challenge in our church in 2020. We are challenging you to share the story of Christ’s love with friends, co-workers, and family members who don’t know Christ. When you do, we invite you to drop a ping-pong ball into the container, if you will. Our church hopes to see 5,000 ...read more

     | 3,352 views

    The ultimate result of Jesus Driven Discipleship is Transformation and Multiplication

    April 09, 2022 A disciple is more than one who acquires information from someone who is smarter or more knowledgeable than they. There is the idea of relationship/community/intimacy. A disciple “adheres to” - holds fast to, clings to, bonds to, is attached to, is faithful to - the teacher. ...read more

  • Religion Vs. Relationship

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,381 views

    This message contrasts religion and relationship, showing that religion is not to be desired. However, a relationship with Jesus is to be highly treasured. Why? Religion brings about death, but relationship brings about life.

    Whenever you hear of the word “religion,” what comes to mind? Perhaps attending a church service, someone worshipping a Buddha statue, a baptismal service, someone reciting a chant or prayer, someone fasting, people praying to the east every hour, someone making an animal sacrifice, or someone ...read more

  • Hypocrisy Series

    Contributed by Jeffery Anselmi on Aug 5, 2022
     | 4,107 views

    If Christians really love Jesus, why is there so much hurt in the church? Jesus confronted the hypocrisy of religious people and desires that his disciples walk in love.

    INTRODUCTION • In our new series, Hot Topics, we will dig into six tough topics that people inside and outside the church often think about (even if we don't ask about them out loud!): • If Christians love Jesus, why is there so much hypocrisy in the church? • How can we trust the Bible? ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 21, 2021
     | 1,361 views

    It’s a constant battle to make prayer not just external, but an action of listening to God that can change our hearts and behaviors.

    Tuesday of 21st week in Course Today we have one of the great analogies of Biblical literature–only St. Matthew has it–you strain out the gnat and swallow the camel. Jesus says “Oy! You nitpick the little stuff and neglect the critical duties.” The people described by the Hebrew word ...read more

  • Getting To The Heart

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 13, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,861 views

    Religion is about keeping and maintaining laws and traditions, but Jesus nullifies these rules and regulations in favor of a relationship, and within that relationship all the laws of God are contained and worked out. It is through this relationship that we can get to the heart of God.

    Getting To The Heart Watch on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o5NlL02LPU There is a popular phrase that is used when we want to get to the bottom of something, or of our need to get to the most important aspect of something. We say that we need to get to the heart of ...read more
