    Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Jul 10, 2012

     | 19,867 views

    Far to many Christians have only a convenient relationship with God, instead of a committed one. God is only for their convenience, for only when they have a need they can’t work out on their own! (there’s a lot of 7-11 Christians in the world)

     | 15,912 views

    The Bible is a book about change. It is a book that tells us how to change so that we can become mature; complete; holy servants of Jesus Christ. Until we are completely free of all; the hurts, habits and hang-ups of this life.

    “Keep the Change” Matthew 5:9 and Romans 12:1-2 I think we call all agree today that the Bible is an amazing book. 66 books, not written by one man, but 39 written over a period of 1500 years. And there is a thread that runs through the scripture from Genesis to Revelation that ...read more

    Have We Not Rather Mourned?

    Contributed by Dale Mcanally on Dec 30, 2014
     | 3,456 views

    Mourning in it’s truest sense in the scriptures means intercession, travail, and earnest supplication. Mourning means that we are seeing or perceiving people and situations through the eyes of the Lord rather than through the judgment of the flesh.

    Jesus practiced mourning regularly. He said in Matthew 23:37, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would ...read more

    Thermometer Or Thermostat: Which Are You?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 9, 2022
     | 5,417 views

    A thermometer tells how hot or cold something or someone is. It doesn’t try to change its environment. A thermostat, on the other hand, alters the temperature. Christians should be thermostats, changing their neighborhoods, families, work, etc.

    THERMOMETER OR THERMOSTAT: WHICH ARE YOU? Mt. 5:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A Pastor told one of his faithful church members, “Mrs. Smith, I appreciate your devotion. You are present at all the services!” 2. Mrs. Smith: “Yes, it’s such a relief, at the end of a long, hard week, to come to ...read more

    The Mercy Formula

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Apr 21, 2017
     | 3,242 views

    The formula goes: (1) We understand God’s mercy for ourselves, which is cognitive, and this leads us to (2) giving mercy to others, which is how we (3) receive mercy for ourselves.

    Matthew 5:7 is a great verse for Divine Mercy Sunday—“Blessed are the merciful, they will receive mercy.” The formula goes: (1) We understand God’s mercy for ourselves, which is cognitive, and this leads us to (2) giving mercy to others, which is how we (3) receive mercy for ourselves.

    Multi Ethnic Bereavement

    Contributed by Davon Huss on Apr 30, 2017
     | 13,878 views

    I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

    To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Christ is the only thing that can bring true and lasting comfort. Jesus said, “Blessed are those that mourn, for they ...read more
