    How Is Your Life Invested?

     | 10,098 views

    God has made a great investment in us so that we might make a great investment in others. Bringing others to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ is where we should invest our time and energy. God will examine the books to see if we made a profit for Him.

    How is your life invested? Luke 19:11-27 Matthew 25:14-46 I’m always fascinated about how many different conclusions people can come to about God’s word. This is especially obvious when you read and study the Parables of Jesus. There is great temptation to take the words of Jesus and make them ...read more

    Every story has a beginning, middle, and ending. Pauls did. What about you?

    I want to tell you a story. This story is about a very well know man in the Bible. A very religious man. A man who was regarded very high amongst his peers, but brought great fear to those he opposed. I am speaking of a man named Saul.

    This morning I would like us to think about spiritual gifts: skills and abilities given by God the Holy Spirit to followers of Christ for the purpose of ministry. And my hypothesis is that what you probably believe about spiritual gifts is wrong. Wrong in a way that’s diminishing your joy in ...read more
