Hoe Your Spiritual Garden

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018

Identify The Root

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Mar 11, 2020

It is sad a dandelion can have ten feet deep roots. Cut the yellow flower of and the plant still thrives. To mature we must identify the root of the problem. Our enemy will hide his true purposes. Get smart, go to the root system.

Leave The Weed

Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Feb 8, 2020

"Weeding the garden" is something we believe is a good thing, but many times doing this can destroy the good roots around them. Jesus helps us grasp why working to remove the 'weeds' from your life is not necessarily His way of leading you.

Right… at first glance you may quickly think I am going to try convincing you how wrong it is to smoke marijuana… or to do drugs of any kind. No… this is not that kind of ‘weed removal’ encouragement… although… wait… OK… I’ll refrain! Rather, this is an admonition to be careful about being SO ...read more

The Kingdom Of Heaven Revealed

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Nov 29, 2020

To God be the glory for the love of Jesus Christ towards mankind. This love is shown throughout the thirteenth chapter of St. Matthew which Jesus devoted entirely to using our everyday experiences, vocations and imagery to teach us what we need to know about the kingdom of heaven.

Jesus is a great teacher who always seeks to have His children understand His teachings, though some of the teachings are presented in parable forms, yet He asks those who are close to Him whether they understand what He is communicating ("Have you understood all these things?" - Matt. ...read more

What Is The Kingdom Like?

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021

Beyond the self-denial of following Christ, beyond the daily discipline, beyond the cross to be carried, lies the most precious thing, a thing of supreme and unsurpassed beauty: life in the Kingdom, under God and for God and with God!

When you open the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark and Luke, it seems that more often that not, Jesus is speaking in some parable. With colourful language, Jesus places things “side by side,” comparing and contrasting, and drawing out from the picture he paints some truth or teaching. Sometimes the ...read more
