    based on 1 rating
     | 7,259 views

    We can relate to the Spirit through the feminine imagery present in scripture.

    God the Father. God the Son. And God the Holy Spirit. Three of my favorite things to talk about, and today we are going to talk about God the Holy Spirit. We talk less about the Holy Spirit than about the Father and the Son, and I think we understand the Holy Spirit less than we understand the ...read more

  • From Insulation To Intimacy Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Mar 17, 2011
     | 4,268 views

    This message talks about the call of God in your life to an intimate relationship with Him. The fact is that most Christians never get to that point in their relationships, let alone with God. We insulate ourselves, fearful of becoming too vulnerable and

    From Insulation to Intimacy Genesis 12: 1-9 David Needham in his book, “Close to His” tells the story of a missionary in China who found it necessary to be gone from his family for an extended period of time.

     | 1,807 views

    Have you ever seen a couple and said, “I wonder what he sees in her” or, “I don't understand what she sees in him”? So we can also ask, what does Jesus see in the church? He loves the church and gave Himself for her.

    Alba 6-11-2023 CHRIST AND THE CHURCH Ephesians 5:22-33 A 97-pound Labrador retriever named Marley is said to have been the world’s worst dog. His story is told in a book for children, "Marley: A Dog Like No Other", by John Grogan. It was also made into a movie called “Marley and ...read more

    This well-known passage becomes a foundation for a Christmas series

    People bring a lot of different baggage into the Christmas season. Some of you are facing the sadness of losing a family member recently. Some are looking at surgery or just recovering from it.

  • Lesson 25: Children And Parents Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 30, 2018
     | 8,406 views

    The church is not relevant to many Christian parents, because if it were they would do everything they could to encourage their children to attend church.

    Commentary on the Book of Ephesians By: Tom Lowe Date: 1/17/18 Lesson 25: Children and Parents (Ephesians 6:1-4) Introduction The teaching of this passage is profoundly counter to today’s culture. Sadly, in many ways it is also counter-church-culture. For Paul seems to expect that children ...read more

    based on 140 ratings
     | 8,383 views

    Joseph was not the biological Father of Jesus, but he certainly was a good example of the CHARACTERISTICS OF A VISIONARY FATHER.

    The first two chapters of Matthew’s gospel contain five different dreams or visions. FOUR OF THESE DIVINE DREAMS WERE GIVEN TO JOSEPH - THE EARTHLY FATHER OF JESUS. It is clear to see that Joseph was a father of vision - God’s vision! Joseph had a particular responsibility among men. He would ...read more

  • Jesus Loves The Church

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 8, 2005
    based on 29 ratings
     | 21,097 views

    Jesus loves the church very deeply. He is faithful and committed to His church, despite our failures. Let us (1) love the church the way He loves her, and (2) understand our need of the church for our growth.

    (Most thoughts in this sermon taken from Joshua Harris’ book ’Stop Dating the Church’.) How does Jesus see the church? The passage in Eph 5 is usually heard at weddings - about the love between husband and wife. This is right and good, but these verses also reveal a lot about what Jesus thinks ...read more

    As long as the church of Jesus Christ has the potential to improve, we need to be serious about encouraging others.

    Encouragement: Making Others Strong 1. Why is it that many of us are into “approval addiction?” 2. Some of us need a lot of approval, whereas others needs less. But we all need it. Why? 3. The answer is simple: life is rough, and it tears away at our self-esteem. People, circumstances, our ...read more

    The world is full of competing messages, some in harmony some in disharmony. A good example is commercials on television.

     | 8,406 views

    When Jesus told the parable of the good Samaritan, He answered a lot more than just, "Who is my neighbor?" He detailed the entire history of man and man’s need for a Savior.

    THE GREAT SAMARITAN Luke 10:30-35 INTRO. This parable is probably among the most well known of all the parables. Everyone is familiar with the story of the "Good Samaritan". But far too many people do not understand the primary meaning of the parable. This is not a parable told to highlight ...read more

  • Hungry For Faith

    based on 35 ratings
     | 7,970 views

    An encounter with Christ is essential for true faith to take shape. Our encounter with the world is then empowered by the Christ we meet at the table.

    I made the point last week that poor ole doubting Thomas should not be singled out as the only disciple who had doubts about this new “resurrected” reality. Here is the rest of the story – as Paul Harvey would say – to vindicate Thomas. Verse 41 of today’s text clearly makes the point. “While in ...read more
