Don't Murmur, You Are Chosen!

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Aug 7, 2003

Oftentimes instead of believing, we have murmurmed and complained against God failing to realize that we are a chosen generation and royal priesthood.

Reading from John ch.6: 41. The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven. 42. And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven? 43. Jesus therefore answered ...read more

A Good Place To Start

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Dec 7, 2002

Second Sunday in Advent: The evangelist Mark starts with John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness. He seems to leave out Christmas. But perhaps, for us, it is a ’good place to start.’

Give More Than Money Series

Contributed by Jack Allen on Jun 12, 2001

While I do not see much of this directed at the church, too many parents seem to confuse money with love.

Yet, neither seems to be a very safe place to find love today. Families break apart and church people gossip. Little sense of ...read more
