    Loving Jesus Is To Hear, Understand, Retain In Our Heart And Do God’s Words

    Contributed by David Leach on Jun 1, 2014
     | 3,136 views

    The world looks for God with the natural eye, but cannot find Him that way. The genuine Christian looks for God with his heart and always finds Him.

    John 14:21-24 (Jesus) He who has My commandments (retains my words in his heart) and keeps them (by the power of My Spirit, which he has received and submits to, he obeys my words – Ezekiel 36:27), it is he who loves Me.

    Our Christian Legacy

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Dec 22, 2015
     | 5,389 views

    In our world where trying to get ahead of one another seems to be the rule, God asks us to consider a new reality: to love genuinely and reciprocally, to clutch that which is good and to compete to show the most integrity.

    Have you ever thought about the legacy you want to leave behind when you die? I’m not talking about a physical legacy such as the things you own. I’m talking about how you want people to remember you. The type of legacy you leave behind will depend on the kind of life you lead on earth. ...read more

    Genuine worship is a matter of serving God by serving others.

    One of my favorite books on worship is a short, simple book by Louie Giglio titled “The Air I Breathe”. Toward the end of that book, Louie wrote something that didn’t make a whole lot of sense to me the first time I read it. But in the 10 years or so since I first read those ...read more
