  • Sermon - God’s Instructions For Purposeful Living

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 11, 2025
     | 834 views

    Some people live on purpose and some just respond to what the world delivers. A “life of purpose” is not something you do or something you have automatically, it is choices that each of us make. Living a life of purpose guides all our choices and shapes the direction of our life.

    Sermon – God’s Instructions for Purposeful Living Scripture - Psalms 1:1-6 AMP, “Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked [following their advice and example], Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit [down to rest] in the seat ...read more

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 11, 2003
    based on 23 ratings
     | 13,336 views

    Thanks to Constantine’s move, the church gradually began to think of its universality as power rather than as an evangelical mandate. Christ is to be lord of our political life, our cultural life, our everyday life -- every aspect.

It was said of one preacher that “for tender minds he served up half a Christ.” Behind that lie two realities – first, that many of us don’t want the full gospel, we’d rather just ...read more

  • Something's Gotta Give!

    Contributed by Christine Forehand on Nov 3, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,724 views

    Something’s gotta give in three areas of the church: in our circumstances, in our worship, and in our outreach.

    Genesis 32:28 (AMP) 28And He said, Your name shall be called no more Jacob [supplanter], but Israel [contender with God]; for you have contended and have power with God and with men and have prevailed. The phrase, “something’s gotta give” has its basis in an older phrase ’give and take’ which is ...read more
