    Lesson 15 in a series on the Sermon on the Mount. I revisited the topic of prayer as we came to Jesus’s words about asking, seeking, and knocking.

    Fix Your Prayers (part 2) Matthew 7:7-11 It is quite possible that no aspect of the Christian life is as mysterious as prayer. What should I pray for and how should I pray?

    Now it is my firm belief that in the midst of Transition and Uncertainty, the Prophetic Pastor must have a Logos about Theos regarding the Ethos of the Times. He must have a Word about God regarding the Mood of the Times!

I want to use this Preaching Moment to highlite this headline: Transitional Theology. The Text I have tagged and targeted for ...read more

    Too many times peopele, including Christians, fill their lives with all of their wants and desires and then try to fit Jesus into the room that is left. God said to seek first His Kingdom. We should strive to conform to His mold for our lives.

In the skit that our young people just performed we see that Jesus wasn’t very cooperative with their ideas about Him or about how He should act 1. Jesus simply did not fit into the mold that they had created. 2. Do you ever have ...read more

    You can’t outgive God. He’s way ahead of everyone but he’s wanting us to share in his likeness and experience the fullness of grace. Part of that comes through being a giver like him.

    Chapters 8-9 center on the subject of the grace of giving. A story was circulated some time ago about Arnold Palmer’s visit with a certain king. This king was impressed with Arnold Palmers golf record and as they talked the king wanted to give Mr. Palmer a gift. He tried to refuse at first, ...read more

    Whether or not a church has a God-given vision for how it is to partner with God in its work is eternally important.

    In the first part of Proverbs 29:18, we find a familiar portion of Scripture. Most Christians are familiar with the quote from the KJV: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” The translation in the NIV gives us insight as to why people with no vision perish: “Where there is no revelation, ...read more
