In our lesson today we are going to be discussing three important ideas which should give each of us hope and certainty regarding our present lives; and hope of eternity.

    Even though angels are above humans, the human nature of Jesus was only temporarily below that of angels: Our salvation made His temporary humility necessary. That’s how much He loves you and me.

    One of Us (Hebrews 2:5-18) 1. Some people make a big deal out of small problems, some of which they should actually find amusing: “Today, for our 25th anniversary, my husband and I had dinner on a cruise ship, a dinner we had been planning for months. Upon boarding, I realized the expensive ...read more

    The good news of Christmas is that God is with us.

    When I was at L.M. Prince elementary school right here in Tucson, every year we had a Christmas pageant and as far as I remember, every single student in the school participated in that pageant.

    If we’re going to build God’s Kingdom in these desperate times, we must all work humbly together.

    In a classic episode from The Andy Griffith Show in the 1960’s, Andy Taylor, the sheriff of Mayberry, is out of town. His deputy, Barney Fife, is in charge, and he has deputized Gomer, the local mechanic. The two deputies are walking down the street one evening when they notice that someone ...read more

    The word ‘US’ has vanished from our vocabulary! ‘ME’ stands out! If at all the word ‘US’ operates, it is for agitation and not for edification! Hear me out today please!

    Look on us! Acts 3:1”And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.” Many times we focus on the healing of the 40 year old man who sat near the temple, but I would like you to focus on the words of Peter and John here: ’Look on us!” Rarely we hear ...read more

    The power of sin dwelling within us prevents us from doing what is good and right in spite of our best intentions. The solution to this problem is the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit.

    How do you see yourself? The answer to that question affects our attitudes, actions, responses and reactions to life’s circumstances. If we see ourselves as the helpless victim of Satan and his schemes, we will likely live like his victims and be in bondage to Satan’s lies. If we see ...read more

    If we do not value people’s souls, we will not go out looking for them. And if we do not go looking, then we cannot fulfill our purpose … which is to bring people into a right relationship with God. And if we do not fulfill our purpose, then what good are we to God?

    Imagine you’re God and you want to announce the most amazing, incredible, joyous news ever … an event that will literally change the course of history … the birth of your only Son, Jesus Christ … the birth of the One who will be the Savior of the whole world … the One for whom the Nation of Israel ...read more

    Jesus' parable of the talents is a call to us to invest all that we are and all that we have in God's kingdom building work. The story reminds us not to compare, but to faithfully invest what we have, and to get to know the Master's heart.

    Matthew 25:14-30 Use It or Lose It Today’s parable is a story about investments. Sometimes we think it’s about using our natural abilities to serve God. Why do we think that? Because the story uses the word “talent” throughout. Our English word “talent” actually comes from that interpretation of ...read more
