    Stretching you past your limits to cope, God can use a crisis to bring us close and draw a crowd along with us to him.

    Paul’s trip to Rome beginning in Acts 27 is the story of a stormy trip and shipwreck. Few things are as awesome to experience as a big storm. This past year, Florida saw four hurricanes plow through and wreak a path of destruction. We can begin to think we are large and in charge when God allows ...read more

    based on 43 ratings

    Satan will try to make us guilty of our past and attempt to get others to pass judgement on us, but we are not guilty by justification of the blood of Jesus.

    Will the defendant please rise is the instruction given to a defendant (or one who is on trial) at the end of a trial right before judgment is handed down. Judgment is a final ruling or decision made in a court of law. We have, according to the constitution, the right to a fair trial. Facts must ...read more

    Many people, including all of us, have done things in our lives that God despised.

    Christians today can attain Christ-likeness by doing the same thing Paul did—dealing with the past, living in the present, and pressing toward the prize.

    PHILIPPIANS 3:12-14 What does it take to attain greatness? First, I guess you have to figure out what greatness is. If you’re a salesman, greatness might be selling a million dollars worth of stuff. If you’re a working man, greatness might be owning your own business. If you’re a football ...read more
