    Forgiving God

    Contributed by Eric Ferguson on May 16, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,874 views

    Us being forgiven by God is without question; but that God needs to be forgiven by me borders on blasphemy. Although it seems unthinkable to even mention that we would need to forgive God of the universe, our creator, our redeemer. But many people must go

To restore peace, we know we need to forgive. But sometime’s there’s no clear culprit in our suffering. At those times, ...read more

    The Three Cs Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Ray Ellis on Jun 8, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,529 views

    Becoming a Christ follower is conditional. We have the choice to say, “Yes” or “No” to becoming a disciple of Jesus. Jesus said, “If anyone will come after me…” Jesus gives the invitation and then leaves the choice up to us.

    The Three “Cs” of Discipleship Luke 9:23-26 During my twelve years of ministry here the mission of the Willow Vale Church has been: “Bringing people to Jesus, loving, equipping and sending them out to make more and better disciples.” Jesus gave us the mission and purpose of the church ...read more

    Jesus tells a timeless tale of a man traveling a trecherous trail. Three hearts are found in this story: the hateful heart, hurried heart, and helpful heart.

    The Loving Neighbor Robert Frost once wrote one of America’s most beloved poems. Since Mr. Frost left it untitled, some have called it The Road Not Taken, others call it The Road Less Traveled—I guess it’s a matter of perspective. Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel ...read more
