    THE HUNGER THAT WILL BE SATISFIED... MATTHEW 5:1-10 Introduction: There are very few memories of my childhood that are as vivid to me as those made in my grandmother’s kitchen – and I suspect that all of us who have had the privilege of spending time in our grandmothers’ kitchens ...read more

    Blessed Are The Ermine Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Feb 13, 2013
     | 8,312 views

    While we tend to focus on the purity of such things as food, water, and air, we would be wise to focus more intently on the purity of heart that Jesus speaks of here. A purity if not possessed will prevent us from seeing God both now and eternally.

    Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. The ermine is a short-tailed weasel that has the unique feature of having its fur change to a snow-white color in the win¬ter. God created this animal with this feature to protect it from others. The ermine instinctively protects his white coat ...read more

    The Unveiling of the Kingdom of God: The Beatitudes (2) Matthew 5:1-12 We have been looking at the Beatitudes from Matthew 5. The word, “Beatitude” is from the Latin word meaning “to bless”, and so The ...read more

    Blessed Are The Peacemakers Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Feb 21, 2013
     | 4,738 views

    Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the presence of righteousness in the haearts of men and women.Peacemakers are those who have been called to share that reality with others.

    Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God. One would be hard pressed to find a better description of the peace that God desires for his children than the words of an old song written in 1875 by Edward ...read more

    How To Let Christ Shine Through You

    based on 1 rating
     | 28,120 views

    God's purpose for our lives in Christ is clearly for His glory and our good. That begins NOW as we fulfill His purposes and let Christ shine through us to others.

    How to let Christ Shine in You We’ve looked at Jesus as the door into God’s presence. We’ve talked about how to get “into Christ” and be “into Christ” in our lives. Last week we saw that what we are to get out of church is Christ. Today, let’s turn ...read more

    Blessed Are The Persecuted Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Feb 27, 2013
     | 5,438 views

    Called to live a beatitude kind of life, the hard reality is anyone who lives out the first seven beatitudes is guaranteed at some point to experience the eighth.

    Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Jesus ends the beatitudes by saying “Blessed are those persecuted, reviled, and spoken against.” Would anyone care to get in “the blessed line?” Most of us prefer ...read more

    Difference Makers Are Different Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Mar 6, 2013
     | 7,122 views

    To make a difference, one must be different. Such is a real possibility as we become salt and light before a decaying and dark world.

    You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a ...read more

    On The Sermon On The Mount

    Contributed by Augustine Of Hippo on Jun 1, 2011
     | 8,763 views

    A classic sermon by St. Augustine on the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5.

    Chapter 1 1. If any one will piously and soberly consider the sermon which our Lord Jesus Christ spoke on the mount, as we read it in the Gospel according to Matthew, I think that he will find in it, so far as regards the highest morals, a perfect standard of the Christian life: and this we do not ...read more

    Carry The Torch

    Being salt and light mean being out there in the world, not pursuing a private spirituality.

    How many of you watch Survivor? I never have. I suppose I should, to be in touch with contemporary culture, in order to be able to speak to it... but it simply doesn’t appeal to me. I have plenty of reality in my own life, thank you, I like my down time to be somewhat more elevated - to coin a ...read more

    Persecution shows us that we are doing what we are supposed to do: be different and make a difference.

    A little over 3 years ago, a group of students at an Alabama high school recited the Lord’s Prayer together in the lunchroom, which prompted a suit by the parents of another student. In response, Judge Ira Dement, on October 29, 1997, termed the action “religiously based ...read more

    Below The Poverty Line

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 8, 2011
     | 3,852 views

    All of the beatitudes - and the rewards that accompany them - presuppose humility, acknowledgement of of one's dependence on God's mercy.

    Are you happy? If not, what would it take to make you happy? “What is happiness?” and “How can I get happiness?” are two of the most pressing questions facing people in the United States today. Most of us don’t have to worry a great deal about food, clothing and ...read more

    It Begins With Mourning

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 8, 2011
     | 2,510 views

    The first step in the turn towards God is to be troubled by "the way things are;" in effect, to mourn over sin.

    How many of you watched the debut of the new reality show, Temptation Island, this week? I didn’t. It had somehow slipped under my radar screen, and I hadn’t even heard about it until Thursday morning at Bible study. For those of you fortunate enough not to have heard about it, ...read more

    Christian meekness is not weakness; it is strength tempered by obedience.

    Do any of you remember the old musical Camelot, about King Arthur and the Round Table? It was popular back in the early 60's, it’s one of the reasons the Kennedy White House started being called Camelot. The reason I bring it up is because of Lancelot. Remember Lancelot?

    The proper response to mourning over the reality of suffering, and the key to meekness, is not conquering desire, but learning to desire the right things.
