    God Loves A Cheerful Giver

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 18, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,235 views

    The “tithe” is not our money; it’s God’s. When we refuse to trust the church in handling the tithe, and feel that we know the best use for it, then this is contempt for God and His Spirit, and we are treading on dangerous ground!

    I remember when my wife and I first got married that she would tell me stories about the Christian camp she attended as a child, because camp meant so much to her growing up. One of the songs they sang at camp was called, “God Loves a Cheerful Giver,” which was about Ananias and Sapphira; and I ...read more

    God calls us to honest, wholehearted integrity—living openly before Him and others—because true freedom and joy are found in sincerity, not in appearances.

    Some passages ease into our living rooms like an old friend, and some step onto the front porch and ring the bell with urgency. Acts 5 is one of those moments. It invites us to sit still, to listen closely, and to remember that God cares about what we hold in our hands and what we hide in our ...read more

    The Value Of Work Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 1, 2017
     | 6,711 views

    Workers show the Godly value of work, when their labors are: 1) Submissive (Titus 2:9a), 2) Selfless (Titus 2:9b), not 3) Subjective (Titus 9c) or 4) Stealing (Titus 2:10a) but 5) Steady (Titus 2:10b)

    The only scheme the New Testament knows for evangelization is personal, apart from the proclamation of God-called and anointed and gifted preachers. Approximately ninety percent of all people surveyed as to how it was that they came to know Jesus Christ pointed to a personal witness, a friend, ...read more

    The Bible has a lot to say to the Christian about “putting off” and “putting on.”

    “Don’t Put Off What You Should Be Putting On” The Bible has a lot to say to the Christian about “putting off” and “putting on.” The abundant life in Christ (John 10:10) is an exchanged life of “putting off” the old and “putting on” the new (Colossians 3:1-17).
