     | 2,145 views

    A Christian man was making plans to leave the country. He went to apply for a passport, and he was told that before he could receive a passport he had to produce evidence of his birth.

    He was stunned when the woman looked at him and asked him to do such a thing. He asked, "My standing before you is not evidence that I have been born?" She said, "No, you will have to bring your birth certificate or something comparable to a birth certificate to show proof of ...read more

    Contributed by James Wallace on Sep 30, 2022
     | 2,937 views

    Have you ever wondered about how God feels about you? There can be no more important thoughts that we have than the ones we have about God and how he feels about us.

    Have you ever wondered about how God feels about you? If you’re here this morning, I’ll bet you have. And it’s a terribly important subject. Once you understand God exists, and who He is—that He’s your Creator and the sustainer of your life and will, therefore, likely have some considerable say ...read more

    WE MUST CRUCIFY OUR OLD NATURE When God draws us to himself, He enables us to respond to His call by repenting and making Him Lord. If we repent, something awesome happens! We become born again. John 3:5-6 To be born again is to receive a new nature, a new mind, and the Holy Spirit. But what ...read more

    What God Is Looking For…

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on May 7, 2009
     | 2,240 views

    After seeing the disciples of Jesus hiding in the upper room it is hard to imagine that they had any vision of their own. That is why it is important to understand how God sees things and what he is watching for.

    Last week we looked at the slowness of Easter’s arrival for the disciples. They were locked away in a room. They were full of fear and doubts. Jesus appears, it would be easy to claim that that fixed everything for the disciples. But it did not; we know that if we read through the different ...read more

    While the parable of the prodigal son reveals some things about the lostness of the younger son, it also reveals the lostness of the elder son and the prodigal love of God.

    How do you view God? Some people view God as a heavy-handed, demanding judge with strict rules of right and wrong. Others view God like a doting grand-father who willingly gives his grandchildren whatever they want - practically spoiling them. Some may view God as aloof and distant, uninterested or ...read more

    God calls us in order for us to be in a personal relationship with Him. Why is it that we want to keep Christ at a distance in our lives.
