    Who's In Control Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 25, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,507 views

    We as humans have a hard time giving up control of anything, but in order to find the abundant life Jesus offers, we must cede authority of our lives to Him, even if that means going into choppy waters.

    We began last time by looking at Jesus as He came down from giving the Sermon on the Mount. He begins to demonstrate that it isn’t all talk—that He really is the coming King and controls His creation, both the visible and invisible. We see Him first approached by two people who really have no ...read more

You’ve heard it—people smiling and clapping through the song, but if you could look inside, the victory light is barely flickering.

     | 14,414 views

    What kind of faith does it take to turn the head of Jesus? The Roman officer had it and so can we.

    Last week we were introduced to Levi who changed his name to Matthew. As you recall Levi meant “joined in harmony” but as a tax collector he was unable to live up to his name. After Jesus made him the offer to become a follower he referred to himself as Matthew, meaning “a gift to ...read more
