     | 4,019 views

    Third in revival series at Emmaus Baptist Church, Quinton, VA: Dialogical (sought testimonies from audience at selected intervals). We may feel that our investment in faith is a waste; but it will not be if we can learn to grow in relationships.

    I hate waste. I despise it when I find out I have wasted something valuable – time or money or effort. Don’t you? Doesn’t it just frustrate you immensely if all your good work goes down the tubes? When I first learned to use a computer, I didn’t know you could set a word processor on auto-save. ...read more

    We are studying the church at Sardis. How do you wake up a dead church or a dead believer? Learn how Christians and churches can fall into a coma and how important it is to stay awake in your relationship with Jesus.

    I had a dream the other night. I was dreaming that I was asleep. Yes, I know that sounds very strange - but then my dreams often are very strange - perhaps an outgrowth of my personality. Anyway - I dreamed that I was asleep and that I at some point wished to wake up. That’s where the trouble ...read more

    At times God appears amongst the clouds. From the readings for Transfiguration Sunday we discover what some of the clouds in life maybe that affect our relationship with God, but also discover God is often found amongst them.

    Have you ever been driving down the Bass Highway to Devonport on a winters evening or morning, to be all of a sudden engulfed by clouds, fog and smog. At times it can be so dense that you have no idea what is a metre in front of you Or what is around you. Your headlights only serve to warn others ...read more

    Some vultures swooped down to eat the carcasses, but Abram chased them away" Notice there is ALWAYS SOMETHING OR SOMEONE WHO WILL TRY TO STOP YOU ENTERING INTO A COVENANT relationship with God, and you will have to refuse to let them.

    Part 2 - Genesis 15:6-21 - CHASING AWAY THE VULTURES Moving to Sydney from the Whitsunday's in Australia is like moving to a new country - it has a culture of it's own which is vastly different. Moving into a new ministry also has it's challenges and so I can identify with Abram as God brought him ...read more

     | 10,345 views

    We are tempted to define eternal life in light of a duration - it goes on forever. Jesus defines eternal life differently - He describes it in terms of a relationship with Himself. And that's important for us to consider because it is one thing to know

    This Is Eternal Life - John 17:3 - August 19, 2012 As a young boy I had one of those plastic bow and arrow sets where the arrows have the little red rubber suction cups on the end. How many of you had something similar as a kid? I enjoyed playing with them a lot and I think I probably ...read more

    What is "the Day of Christ Jesus" and how does it differ from "the Day of the Lord"? Whether these are coming events we fear or embrace is all a matter of perspective; where do we stand in relationship with Christ?

    Philippians 1:3-6 3 I thank my God every time I remember you. 4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, 6 being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until ...read more

    Jesus, in His mercy, cared enough to leave heaven behind and come to earth to communicate with us on how we can have a relationship with God. JESUS BECAME A MAN TO SHOW US HOW TO HAVE PEACE WITH GOD!!!

    How do we relate to people who are outside our church group? It is easy to judge and keep away - but Jesus calls us to a different attitude. We are to be those who keep building relationships no matter what.

    No matter how deep of a hole you find yourself in, if you have a relationship with God He will hear, He will find, and He will rescue you, though the victory may not be what you expect, it is accomplishing God's will

    Psalm 18 is the longest Psalm we have dealt with so far at fifty verses.

It really speaks to the ...read more
