Contributed by Martin Holland on Jan 5, 2012

“i Am The Greatest” Mark 9:33-37

Contributed by James Lee on Nov 21, 2013

The disciples, on more than one occasion, argued over who should hold the highest position in the kingdom. Their desire was for recognition and honor in an earthly kingdom. Jesus had to refocus their thinking and I believe the same refocusing is needed by many today.

Humility Series

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Nov 1, 2016

Humility Philippians 2:1-11 Can we express Christ’s majesty with just one word? This would be a most difficult exercise. For some of us we might choose the word “Love” or “Saviour” but for those who want to capture Christ’s majesty only one word does ...read more

Refuting The Entitled Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

In entitlement thinking, “title equals entitlement.” Favor is demanded based on one’s status or position. It seems the descendants of Joseph felt entitled to more land because they were a large tribe; but bigger doesn't equal blessing.

When it comes to possessing the land, we can’t just stand around waiting for someone to hand it to us. The same is true for those who are drawn to the work of God in our church and who want to partner with us. When we begin making an impact for the kingdom, and as we start leading others to ...read more
