    A two-part series on discovering what God would have us do while we wait for His return.

    Heaven’s Definition Of Greatness

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 17, 2015
     | 5,552 views

    Sometimes we have the idea that if we follow Jesus we are guaranteed to receive a reward. When that happens we forget that Jesus’ ministry was one of serving others. He gave himself for the sake of others, including suffering for their salvation.

    In Mark 10:35-45, Jesus once again told his disciples everything that would happen to him in Jerusalem-his trial, death, resurrection and ascension. James and John seized this opportunity to ask for the highest positions of honour in his kingdom-at the right and left hands of Jesus. They forgot ...read more

    Why I Quit Tithing

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Sep 23, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,340 views

    Because God owns it all, the question should not be, "How much should I give?" But rather the question should be, "How much should I keep?"

    Most people simply don’t understand tithing. To many Christians, it seems like some sort of country club due. Another bill in the long list of monthly expenses. I hear questions like: “How Much Are You Supposed to Tithe?” “Do I tithe on my gross income or net income?” “My pay my tithe on my pay ...read more
