    If we are going to find true happiness in life as Christians, we must learn some important lessons regarding service to others in Jesus’ name.

    Introducing: God Series

     | 3,138 views

    The Beatitudes (it means "blessing") are probably the most famous words Jesus uttered. They are also among the most mis-understood. To understand the Beatitudes we need to know Jesus person and His mission.

    The Sermon on the Mount is perhaps the most famous part of Jesus’ earthly ministry. I think it’s safe to say that more people are familiar with at least parts of this series of sermons than are the account of the cross. In Matthew’s gospel (which is ordered topically more than chronologically) ...read more

    Happiness is a choice, not a consequence. It is centered on God’s rule in our lives and it is connected to what Christ has done for us.
