    What does this passage say to us as his disciples now living 2000 years later? This is what this passage tells us.  Spiritual growth was not only a priority in the life of Jesus, it was everything.  Jesus taught us how to live a balanced life

    “Finding Balance” Luke 2:41-52 When we look at the life of Jesus and what the Bible tells us about Him we quickly notice that the majority of what we know is from his adult life…those 3.5 years He spent in ministry. There is of course the story of his birth. Also in the gospel ...read more

    The world is obsessed with cleanness. Everywhere you look you see people with different hand cleaners and antibacterial soaps and lotions. We must have an even greater desire for purity of heart. In 2 Timothy 2, we see some great keys to equip us.

    The world is obsessed with cleanness. Everywhere you look you see people with different hand cleaners and antibacterial soaps and lotions. People want cleanness outwardly, but purity in heart? That is not the case. Everything that we see in this world is saturated with all kinds of impurity; TV, ...read more

    REv. 19:9 says "These are the true words of God." What words are true? Why is it important to know them?

    “The Great Unveiling: The True Words of God” Revelation 19:1-21 Many of us in the older generations of life remember the original television series Dragnet.

    Everyone loves love! We want to be loved and we want to give love. The problem is—our love is often lacking. This four-sermon series explores 1 John in order to discover a love that's truly worth having and giving: real love! PowerPoint available.

    Real Love (2) Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 5/26/2013 Do you know how Jesus said that his disciples will be recognized throughout the world?

     | 7,523 views

    In our Scriptures today, we see two encounters, which lead to making disciples. This encounter and Jesus’ ministry to such folks teaches us that lost people matter to God. All of us are surrounded by people far from God

    Building Relationships Luke 15:1-10 and Acts 8:26-40 In our Scriptures today, we see two encounters, which lead to making disciples. The first is when Jesus has a group of tax collectors and sinners who have gathered to hear him talk. Tax collectors were some of the most hated people in ...read more

    Elisha followed a course of three steps in all this. Prayer, Faith and Obedience. We may face situations beyond our reserves but never beyond God's resources.

    Opening illustration: In the New York City subway, two youths robbed a well-dressed man who appeared to be asleep in his seat. Suddenly the whole car came alive! The victim turned out to be a decoy, and the passengers who jumped up from their seats were police officers. With lightning speed they ...read more

    Perhaps the most important thing you can discover as you spend time immersed God’s Word is this: God loves you. You belong to him. To understand the Word of God, rely on the Spirit of God.

    Opening illustration: As an adolescent I read the word of God daily as a routine without really understanding it and kept it under my pillow assuming that it would give me a peaceful sleep and protect me from all harm. When I became a teenager, I still kept doing the same thing except that the ...read more

    Are You Worshiping Nature Or The Creator?

    Contributed by John Hickman on Oct 22, 2013

     | 7,535 views

    Is our culture today worshiping "Mother Nature" instead of the Creator? Jesus went out into God's Creation to hear from God, to pray, to be refreshed and recharged for ministry. Shouldn't we be doing the same?

    One hundred years before the birth of Jesus a Roman Philosopher, Cicero, wrote, “Nature herself makes the wise man rich.” The poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said that “Nature never hurries. Atom by atom, little by little she achieves her work.” Antoinette Brown Blackwell wrote ...read more

    The spiritual gift of being merciful is far more than a feeling or an emotion: it reflects the mercy of God.

    “Moved by Mercy to Be Merciful” Romans 12:8d “He who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.” Today we look at the seventh spiritual gift mentioned in Romans 12, namely, that of being showing mercy to others. The gifts (prophecy, serving, teaching, exhortation, giving, ...read more

    We are living in the middle of troubled and uncertain times, but instead of being fearful, let's grab on tightly to four certainties found in Daniel's vision of the four beasts from Daniel chapter 7.

    God desires to work miracles today for His people and the lost. Like rain, if the conditions are right, God still answers believing prayers with miracles. He usually uses people as His agents. Will you let Him use you?

    IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING 2 Kings 7:1-2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: “Brunette Joke” 1. One day, Hannah decided that she was sick and tired of all her husband Arnold’s brunette jokes and decided to show him how wrong he was and to prove that brunettes really are smart. 2. Hannah decided ...read more
