    You Make Pizza, One Layer At A Time

    Contributed by James Kirkland on Jan 28, 2009
     | 5,073 views

    Our spiritual life must grow as we grow in the Lord. You don’t start with a finished pizza, you must continue to add each layer until you put it in the oven.

    You make Pizza, one layer at a time. Pizza, what a topic to preach about? I suppose that the only real connection we have with pizza and the church is that pizza came from Italy and Paul’s preaching took him to Italy. That is a pretty far stretch, or is it? Ancient Greeks ate flat, baked bread with ...read more

    People don’t wear parachutes because they are comfortable, they wear them for security. So many Christians today have ditched their parachute because it didn’t bring them happiness on the flight of life. God is not near as interested in pacifying or pleas

    So much of what we call hope is temporary. It is fleeting. At most, it lasts in this life only. Paul said (1 Cor. 15:19) that if Christ brings a temporary hope only, we are the most miserable of men on the planet. I would agree. Most people don’t wear parachutes because they are ...read more
