A Whole Heart

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Jul 2, 2018

Who wants God to love them and act towards them halfheartedly, as an after thought. No we want Gods full attention and commitment to our well being. Well God wants doesn't want to be an after thought in our lives either.

David made a statement in the word of God. He said my heart is fixed. Psalms 57:7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise. There are all kinds of heart conditions. There’s a broken heart. There’s a wounded heart. Then there are physical heart conditions that limit ...read more

In SW Asia in the early 1800’s there was a country where once a year, the priests took their idol out of their temple – which they considered a god – and paraded the deity around the city and then took it back to its ...read more

The Good, The Bad & The Ugly Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 17, 2006

Do you feel insignificant in your service to God? You may be more powerful than you thought. Or do you feel pretty secure? You may be more in need and weak than you thought. Take some advice from Philadelphia and Laodicea.

Even as the Philadelphian church doesn’t receive even one rebuke - the church at Laodicea receives not one commendation - the contrast couldn’t be more stark - and that’s not the only contrast we’ll see as we compare these two churches. -The church at Philadelphia was small in appearance but ...read more

No Mediocrity Allowed Here

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 19, 2025
