Jesus Tempted Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 26, 2017

Buyer's Remorse

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Feb 24, 2009

I would bet that the disciples, when Jesus was off praying by himself, would discuss among themselves whether all this was worth it. Have we been scammed? I bet they had some buyer’s remorse. Some anxiety. Some uncertainty about their choice. I would!!

Having, Losing, Choosing

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 31, 2009

Whatever we think we possess can be lost. God gives it to us for only so long as we need it, but after that it becomes an idol. We must choose to give away time, talent, treasure for things that do last, and for life itself.

Almost nothing that you and I count on to be permanent really is permanent. Almost everything that we think will last forever, it turns out, can be destroyed. Anything we have we can also very easily lose. We live in a monumental city. Capitol Hill, the monuments, the Federal Triangle, the White ...read more

Would You Ask Jesus To Leave?

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Jun 23, 2013

When we cling to and refuse to forsake sin, habits, and less than admirable behavior, we are asking Jesus to leave us. Jesus wants to "cast out" those behaviors in our life if we'll let him.

If you are familiar with “The Andy Griffith” show, you may remember the loveable character named Otis. He was well known around town as being “the town drunk.” He was harmless and seemed to be more of a town mascot. However, this was not the case in our story in Luke. ...read more

True Riches Series
