Living By A Different Standard Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 19, 2022

Paul warns and urges the Corinthians to break away from their old lifestyle of visiting the prostitutes, counting their excuses with the truth of God's gift and design for sexual relations.

Using Money To Direct Our Hearts Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 25, 2022

Jesus tells us not to store up treasure on earth but to store up treasure in heaven. Doing that is certainly a much better investment! But an even bigger reason to do that is that where we put out treasure directs our hearts.

Lasting Treasures Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 27, 2022

The biggest problem we face today is that our possessions tend to give us a false sense of security as if to say if we only had enough money or enough property, or enough furniture and clothing and jewelry – and did I mention shoes? – we would have it made.
