    "Snap The Chains"

    Contributed by Allan Kircher on May 31, 2009
    based on 8 ratings
     | 7,313 views

    The Shadow Christian, as we will call him, was a cranky guy. He did not smile easily, and when he did, the smile often had a cruel edge to it, coming at someone’s expense.

    Refining Christian Maturity Pastor Allan Kircher “Snap the chains” “They cried to the Lord in their troubles, and he rescued them! He led them from the darkness and shadow of death and snapped their chains” (Psalm 107:13-14, TLB). Are you crying out to the Lord this ...read more

    We continue to learn from the First Letter to the Thessalonians; please open your Bibles there… What have we noted so far? In Chapter 1 we noted what the right motives are for the Christian life! In Chapter 2 we noted 2 things, how to effectively share the Gospel and the importance of being ...read more

    Too many of us believe we have arrived and are mature spiritually. We must find out “Where Are You?”

    I. Introduction The very first question God ever asked was asked to force Adam to come to a clear understanding and view of where he was. Instead of living openly and honestly before God he is now crouching behind a bush trying to hide from God. God's voice thunders through the branches and his ...read more

    "The Comparison Trap" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Aug 21, 2017
     | 5,623 views

    This passage is basically a biography, a spiritual biography of Paul’s life. I think it would begin with a statement like this----I am absolutely satisfied with Jesus but in no way am I satisfied with myself.

    THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS “The Comparison Trap” Philippians 3:12-4:1 One of my heroes in the NT is the apostle Paul. If anyone had the right to brag, it would be him. Think about it... • Jesus appeared to Paul when he was traveling on the road to Damascus. They had a conversation and then Paul was ...read more

    I Lay Me Down To Sleep

    Contributed by Jimmy Chapman on Jul 3, 2008
    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,507 views

    In Peter’s life story we have the record of three times when he was off guard, relaxed, asleep. On each occasion there was something that he did not know.

    I Lay Me Down To Sleep Acts 12:6 Sleeping at the wheel is a good way to keep from growing old. The amount of sleep required by the average person is about five minutes more. Laugh and the world laughs with you, snore and you sleep alone. People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t ...read more

    In our quest to behave in a righteous manner in the assembly of God, we must reteach ourselves the true meanings of certain terms we believe we already know. Let us investigate the term PERFECT.

    In our quest to behave in a righteous manner in the assembly of God, we must reteach ourselves the true meanings of certain terms we believe we already know. As cultures change, so do the accepted meanings of terms. Scripture was written into the English language as early as 1611 AD. It was in the ...read more

    It takes more than leadership to built up the Kingdom of God, but good leaders can make a significant difference.

    Timothy Joins the Team! (Acts 16:1-5) 1. Joke: A not-too-bright lady was stuck in a snowstorm when she remembered her dad's advice: "If you ever get stuck in a snowstorm, wait until a snowplow drives by and then follow it." Eventually she saw a snowplow so she followed it along in her car. After ...read more

     | 6,783 views

    Many Christians that are thought to be mature demonstrate immaturity through their speech. James confronts Christians, demanding that they look at what is said and how they say it.

    JAMES 3:2-5a A PERFECT CHRISTIAN “We all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body. If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. Look at the ships also: ...read more
