    Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Oct 11, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,068 views

    Give thanks because God’s love for us is eternal. It didn’t have a beginning and it will not have an end.

    Two attitudes toward thanksgiving: • Blessings are seen as coming from US, not GOD. Bart Simpson’s Thanksgiving prayer: “Dear God, we paid for this stuff ourselves, so thanks for nothing.” Prayer by the character Charlie Anderson (Jimmy Stewart) in the movie Shenandoah: “Lord, we cleared this ...read more

    Why We Need Christmas

    Contributed by Pat Damiani on Dec 21, 2007
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,930 views

    We need Christmas because the incarnation provided what we needed in order to be saved from our sins.

    Every year, much of the world celebrates Christmas without really understanding why. We’ve done a great job of perpetuating the “what” and the “how” of Christmas. Even though we lament the fact that Christmas has lost a lot of its meaning, at least in this country, almost everyone, regardless of ...read more

     | 5,691 views

    So often Christmas is a let down instead of full of joy - could it be because our focus is on us not Him?

    There is a story told of a young lad who wrote a more unusual letter to Santa, not asking for this toy or that one but saying: ‘you didn’t bring me anything good last year or the year before. This is your last chance’! You know a bit like that boy we all know that often Christmas often can be a ...read more

    We can look forward to dying because Jesus Christ has given us victory over death.

    A YOUNG CHILD WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A TERMINAL DISEASE. THE PARENTS KNEW THAT HE WOULD DIE SOON. THE CHILD AS WELL KNEW THAT HIS DEATH WOULD BE SOON.

     | 13,312 views

    Do you live an isolated, separate life because you think it is what God wants you to do?

    Disciples who Make A Difference How do we who are Believers relate to the world of which we are a part? We are fond of saying that ‘we are in the world, but not of the world.’ There are several warnings in the New Testament about becoming so comfortable in our culture that we are no longer a ...read more

    Contributed by C Jordan on Jul 17, 2007
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,421 views

    Why is it important to consider proofs for the resurrection of Christ? Because if there is no resurrection, our preaching is empty and your faith is empty.

    PROOFS FOR THE RESURRECTION OPENING TEXT: “Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you--unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you ...read more

    In these last days, we are a church under siege by the powers of darkness, but we will prevail because we are armored by God.
