    Life fulfillment and abundance is NEVER ultimately found in what we acquire, accomplish or achieve. It’s only found in the loving intimacy with God and others. The home the Lord builds is a home where people are the priority!

     | 10,926 views

    It's the Last Sunday of the Church Year/Christ the King Sunday. Jesus speaks of separating the sheep & goats on the last day. The question on people's minds: Am I a sheep or a goat? (From our lectionary-based series for November 2017, "BE the Church.")

  • Love Does Not Brag And Is Not Arrogant Series

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 11, 2004
    based on 24 ratings
     | 8,618 views

    This is an in-depth look at how pride is contrary to truly loving God and our neighbor. We examine how pride is often manifested in our lives.

    Arrogance or pride (which often leads to bragging) cannot co-exist with love. Arrogance is having or showing an exaggerated opinion of one’s own importance, merit, ability, accomplishments, etc. It is being conceited. It leads to having and demonstrating contempt for others. Jesus stated that ...read more

    When we become passive, smug, or listless in our relationship to God, He does not take it lightly; God doesn’t just want what we DO, He wants US, heart and soul.
