    In Giving, Where Is The ‘enough’ Line? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 21, 2019
     | 3,665 views

    Paul doesn't just say, "Tithe and you're good." Rather, he encourages the Corinthians to "excel in the grace of giving." What does that mean exactly? And what does grace have to do with giving?

    IN GIVING, WHERE IS THE "ENOUGH" LINE? Many Christians would say, “Tithe and you’re good.” - There is a natural tendency in almost all of us to want to know where the line is. It might be so we don’t cross it. It might be so we can cross it. But we want to know where the line is. - ...read more

     | 12,653 views

    If we believe Jesus is the only way of salvation, If we believe salvation is the free gift given to all who place their faith and trust in Jesus. Then part of being a dynamic disciple involves sharing the truth of who Jesus is with others.

    Do you try to avoid conflict? Most of us will not enjoy conflict in our lives. We simply want to avoid uncomfortable situations. Often, it is within uncomfortable situations that we find our deepest levels of faith. Christians are often unprepared when it comes time to share their faith with ...read more

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Mar 13, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,956 views

    If we're not careful, we can get caught up in the world's system of polishing that pedigree. Rather, like the Apostle Paul, we need to surrender all to the great goal of knowing more intimately Christ our Lord. Everything else is secondary.

    Philippians 3:4-14 Surrendering Credentials to Christ Any top-blockers here? Any type-A personalities? Any hard chargers who consistently rank in the top percentile? The military is basically an up-or-out system, so it attracts into career service those who are driven to succeed. Many of you are ...read more

     | 5,666 views

    According to God's Holy Word we CAN absolutely know for certain that we will spend eternity with Jesus. In the meantime, what should we be doing? Are we saved just so we can relax or are we saved to extend God's grace to those who are lost in sin?

    Scripture Reading: John 14:15-24 (Please open your Bibles to this text) Last week we took a look the most important question of any moment in time which is, “If Jesus returns or you go to meet Him, are you ready? Are you saved?” And we found that it is not only possible but it is the ...read more

     | 8,771 views

    As Christians we don't have to live in fear, of not knowing what's up ahead around the corner, or what the future might bring. As long as God knows, isn't that enough? It's time we left our hands up...and our worries down!

    Hands up...Worries down! Philippians 4:4-7 MSG 4-5 Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revelin him!

    Have you ever set out after something and you got close but you didn’t quite get it? Just coming close can be pretty debilitating and frustrating. But nothing would be worse than getting close to the kingdom of God but not getting there.
