Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Mar 4, 2020

With God's help and the steady support of Christian friends, we live in real joy by cultivating the mind of Christ - so that, in humility, we forego personal ambition to become Christlike in all that we do.

LIVING IN JOY IMITATES CHRIST IN ONE’S BEING, THINKING, AND DOING One of the joys of being a parent, grand-parent, or great-grandparent – of a toddler in particular - is to watch the little one try to imitate what you say and do. Much of our interaction with the ...read more

The Provocative Entry

Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019

Palm Sunday helps us correctly understand humility in relationship to others, and Christian vocation in relationship to God. The following discourse is based upon one of the first sermons I preached, a “Palm Sunday” sermon given many years ago.

(If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) There are very many New Testament scriptural admonitions to humility; for example, Paul writes: “By the grace given to me I bid everyone among you not to think of himself more ...read more

The Mind Of Christ Philippians 2:5-13 "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus; Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And ...read more

Real Leadership Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Feb 22, 2019

If you want to be a real leader that inspires people to real greatness, define the vision, delegate the work; but most important, deny yourself just like Jesus did. That’s because real leaders are real servants.

Several years ago, a 19-year-old man, desperate to get to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, hopped a bus and demanded that the driver take him there. Some say the man was drunk, others that he was disturbed. Either way, only a few of the passengers were concerned, and everyone stayed calm. That’s because ...read more

Releasing The Anointing Of God

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 23, 2019

In order for the anointing of God to move powerfully through a Christian’s life, and upon every life they touch, it must be released.

Before the anointing was released at the start of Jesus ministry, He was baptized. “When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened.” (Luke 3:21 NIV) Baptism symbolizes death. The spices that made up the Anointing Oil ...read more

Dare To Live As A Chosen Child Of God Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Mar 14, 2019

If you are in Christ, if you have repented and accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour then the Bible is clear about who you are. You are a Chosen Child of God. As children of God, we must dare to be different in our words, our deeds and our actions.

We continue in our series Dare to be Different and this month our focus is different family. Its been a while but I want to start with a couple of questions: Do you know who you are?

Who's Boss

Contributed by Russ Barksdale on Mar 19, 2019

Who’s boss? Is Jesus Christ really the Lord of your life? At this very moment, Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life, or He is not. Either you have surrendered your life to Him and He is running the show, or you are still at the help of your life.
