    The Beatitudes flow out of each other. Our poverty of spirit leads to our mourning, and teaches us to live meek. But this is often the missing link in the life of a Christian. This message explores Jesus’ teaching on meekness in the Sermon on the Mount

    (Opened message with BlueFishTV Video Clip depicting a church service similar to a Football Telecast) Quite a production the church has become. Visit the right congregation on the right Sunday, and you will feel like you have fallen into a happening similar to the Super Bowl, or a UK basketball ...read more

    Those who are poor in spirit are those who have learned that trusting God is the only things that gives them life, and are the ones who are truly blessed.

    Blessed are the Poor in Spirit Matthew 5:1-11 May 1, 2005 Sometimes, there are some interesting typos in new editions of the Bible. One edition of the Holy Book translated a verse from Exodus 20 as “Thou shall commit adultery.” John 8:11 was rendered “Go and sin on more.” I know that most ...read more

    God chooses His leaders by His sovereignty, but leadership emerges as a person grows in faith and develops his gifts to serve God.

    A. PETER’S NEW NAME … NEW CHALLENGE … NEW OPPORTUNITY 1. A new name. His original name was Simon (John 1:42), a modification of Simeon “to listen.” Could Peter ever have listened?

    Peter's attempt at walking on water shows us two powerful lessons about our own faith!

    FAITH REQUIRES FEARLESSNESS! FAITH CALLS FOR US TO PUT AWAY OUR FEARS AND TO EMBRACE RADICAL OBEDIENCE SO THAT WE CAN TAKE OUR FIRST STEPS AWAY FROM “SELF” AND HEAD IN THE DIRECTION GOD WANTS TO LEADS US.

    THE MERITS OF MEEKNESS MATTHEW 5:5 INTRODUCTION: Maybe there is no other beatitude, spoken by Jesus, that is more confusing than the one we study today. “Blessed are the meek...” Why is it confusing?
