    Empowering Leaders

    Contributed by Brien Sims on Jan 16, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,328 views

    Empowering leadership means putting the “church at large” back into the hands of the people. Elders are there to help govern and protect.

    Society today has placed its seal of approval on single parent households and homosexual adoption. The laws allowing such activity give evidence of such a stamp of approval. The ideas of familial leadership have begun to fail quickly. Sociologists and experts in family studies have just recently ...read more

    The matter of destiny is something we can’t afford to treat lightly. We must carefully evaluate what our destiny choices mean, both for today and for the future and ultimately eternity.

    IS THIS YOUR TIME? Luke 19:44 “…you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.” You may have seen the commercials about quitting smoking where the interviewee says, “I talked to my doctor and now I see quitting in a whole new way. It was my time to ...read more

    There's a repetitive theme in Scripture: heroes and heroines of the Bible seemingly all go through the process of being given a vision by God, followed by the death of that vision, and ultimately the rebirth of that vision. How did that pattern apply to Jesus and how does it apply to us?

    Without Strength Before The Pursuer

     | 55,683 views

    What a tragic lamentation. The runner is in big trouble because he is being pursued but has no strength. Somebody that is pursued cannot relax. If he has no strength then he is already a prey, a casualty.

    Lamentation 1:6 says, “And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.” What a tragic lamentation. The runner is in big trouble because he is being pursued but has no strength. ...read more

    To share that Easter is about forgiveness and we can receive it through the Risen Savior.

    Every Easter it seems we really focus on Jesus Rising from the Tomb. After all that¡¯s what it¡¯s all about right? That He beat death and won the victory for us. As powerful as this is, I want our attention to back up a bit and look at an often overlooked portion of the Easter Story. Let¡¯s take a ...read more

     | 21,348 views

    These men were not ready to be trusted with the tender things of the Lord. Jesus knew it was not time for the disciples to teach the truths which would soon come to the infant body of believers called "the church."

    TITLE: CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET SCRIPTURE: ST. MATTHEW 16:13:20 I am sure we all have that one family member that we know whenever a secret needs to be kept, make sure you don’t tell them.

     | 6,261 views

    Jesus’ great priority was to proclaim the good news that God’s kingdom is at hand. When we pray the words that Jesus taught us: “Your kingdom come, your will be done,” that is when we align our priority in life with his great priority.

     | 6,010 views

    Those who are disabled can challenge believers to be more authentic in their Christian faith and love. This message shows how a blind man was able to challenge the disciples and a crowd of people who were following Jesus.

    My family attended two Baptist churches in Danville that were unusually, yet refreshingly, filled with a love for those who are disabled. We saw the deaf, for which a sign language interpreter was provided. We also saw those with some sort of mental handicap, and those with a wide range of physical ...read more
