  • Fitting In

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 13, 2011
     | 6,996 views

    comedian Lenny Bruce gives our Christian psychology a metaphorical cattle prod shock when he said, “Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.’” I suspect it has a lot to do with fitting in.

    “Fitting In” John 17:11-19 I read the prologue to a story called Girl in the Middle. The girl is Kim Satinsky who is in eighth grade. She says, “You would think that being in a clique is fun but take my word for it: It’s not. They make me wear expensive things when I’m not really rich and tell me ...read more

  • Jesus' Brothers Get It Wrong Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 4, 2023
     | 1,666 views

    Jesus' brothers gave Jesus some advice. It wasn't very good advice. But we can learn from it, about assumptions, about accepting Jesus as Lord, and about dealing with pressure from our families.

    Today, we’re continuing in our series ‘Encounters with Jesus in John’s gospel.’ I’m going to focus on the first eight verses of John 7. These tell us about an encounter Jesus’ brothers had with him. As usual, I’ll try to give the context. Then we’ll look at what happened. After that, we’ll ...read more

    What does the word excellence mean to you? To me excellence means to be consistent in good character, attitude, quality, and standards. It means to be unapologetically different. Being a person of excellence is a continuous process and should the goal for every believer.

    Subject: Be People of Excellence in a Generation of Compromise Scripture: Daniel 1:8-21 “But Daniel was determined not to defile himself by eating the food and wine given to them by the king.

    Jeremiah condemned the pretentious worship of God and exalted the sincere worship of God. The contrast is great, especially when we examine the two attitudes separately.

    Pretense or Sincerity? (Jeremiah, Selected Verses) 1. Three ministers were talking about prayer in general and the appropriate and effective positions for prayer. As they were talking, a telephone repairman was working on the phone system in the background. One minister shared that he felt the key ...read more

     | 2,027 views

    Many decisions are major crossroads, others less but sill significant; trying to reverse them only may make matters worse in the long run. Therefore, we need to ponder our decisions, using God-honoring caution.

Take this true story: “When I was a kid, my mom, my cousin, my sister, and I were all about to go to my great grandma's house from my ...read more

     | 14,182 views

    Symbolically, this vision is about the resurrection of Israel as a nation. The dry and disconnected bones represent how God’s people had been defeated, divided and scattered in exile. Only God can reconnect their bones, unite them and bring them back together as a country!
