    It’s too bad that not all believers experience the confidence God wants us to have as His children. But He has gone to great lengths to give us this confidence through the sending of His Son.

    I think the greatest film that’s ever been made in the history of filmmaking, and this is my own humble opinion, is “Saving Private Ryan.” And the reason I like Saving Private Ryan so much is because it has one of the most potent theological statements ever made in film. The thing is it’s not an ...read more

    Abraham was righteous before God. But what was the grounds of Abraham's righteousness, faith or works? The answer of Jewish tradition was works, but Scripture says Abraham's righteousness was by faith. Paul proves that the doctrine of justification by fai

    The KJV uses the word "peculiar" 7 times - but it didn't mean "odd" or "bizarre" - it meant a treasured "possession". But what does that mean to us and how should that effect our daily lives as Christians?

    (I opened by reading Titus 2:11-14 from the KJV) OPEN: Last Sunday (January 10th) was “Peculiar People Day”. Nobody knows who came up with the idea of making that a special day (somebody thinks it might have been the greeting card companies) but the whole idea of this Peculiar People ...read more

    Do we Trust God? Really? We need to examine our lives every now and then to see if that is true.

    Trust Me These are two very loaded words. Trust is not something we do easily. And in this world of identity theft, on and offline scams trust can be a dangerous thing to give. In the days of youth group past I have participated several trust exercises. One is the trust walk where one person is ...read more

    One way Christians remember Christ during Christmas time is by way of the Christmas tree. But, what does the Christmas tree mean in your house? Do you know? Do your children know? Today, we will discover how we can answer those questions in reference to a simple Christmas tree.

    I recently ran across a statistic compiled by a German scholar. He determined that in Paul’s 13 epistles, he uses the term “In Christ” or some form of it ~ “in Him”, “in the Lord” ~ no less than 164 times! Paul loved to talk about Jesus!

    The world offers countless answers—do good deeds, follow religious rituals, give to charity, try harder, live better. Yet, deep inside, every honest person knows this truth: we cannot wash ourselves clean.
