    based on 26 ratings

    Purity is the personal decision to glorify God with your body, soul and spirit. So many times when we talk about purity, we put it in terms of dos and don’ts.

    Create in Me a Clean Heart: A Serious Call to Sexual Purity I received an email from a young lady I have never met. She happens to live in a country on the other side of the world. Because she reads my weblog, she felt like she could write and share her heart with me. This is part of what she ...read more

    They say that the greatest sermons are lived not preached. As Jesus delivers the sermon on the mount, we see that it is not just a sermon he preached, but one that he lived.

    They say that the greatest, most impacting sermons are those that are not preached, but are lived. No one lived a better sermon than Jesus. At the outset of his sermon on the mount, Jesus lays out the steps that lead to blessing. Step one: Realizing your spiritual condition. "Blessed are the ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,074 views

    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.

    Last December 2006, Columbia Pictures released the movie “The Pursuit of Happyness,” starring Will Smith and his son Jaden Christopher. Christopher Gardner inspired the movie. He was a salesman struggling to provide for his family until he finally makes it big in the stock brokerage business in San ...read more

    The Values Of The Person God Prospers Series

    Contributed by Jason Pettibone on May 14, 2007
     | 3,491 views

    Observations of the kind of values that Jesus outlines in the Beatitudes. (Heavily in debt to Dallas Willard for seminal thoughts!)

    Last week, I talked about the need for a transformed heart, made alive by God’s Spirit. If our desire is to please God and enjoy His blessings, our heart must be renewed daily, and we must discipline our hearts so they are undivided! We need not be ‘miserable Christians’ frustrated by the gap ...read more

    Blessed Are The Pure In Heart Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 27, 2007

     | 5,140 views

    God is concerned with the condition of our heart. We are to seek purity of heart in two ways: (1) be right, and (2) be true. Our words and deeds must be in sync with our heart.

    Noticed Jesus did not say “Blessed are the pure…” which is correct too. • But He said, “Blessed are the pure IN HEART.” The emphasis is right. • Man concerns the outward – we want to look good, to make an impression. • We need to place more emphasis on what is unseen – the attitudes of our ...read more
