It showcased 11 companies that transformed from ...read more

    When we get to the gates of that city, they wont ask for your I.D. - they will look for a resemblance of Christ in your life - that is your pass into heaven.

    CHRIST, OUR EXAMPLE 1Thes. 1:5 & 1Pet. 2:21-23 Christ IS Our Example In Word And In Deed. As we can walk as Christ walked, we can talk as Christ talked.

    Who Am I

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 15, 2015
     | 7,570 views

    Like Peter, we are followers of Jesus. Like Peter, we sometimes have deep faith, and, at other times, a lack of faith. Jesus saw in Peter the same thing he sees in us-building material that can be shaped into a people of faith to serve his reign.

    The Gospel reading from Matthew 16:13-20 takes place in the region of Caesarea Philippi. It was a territory where pagan gods were worshipped, and it is there that Jesus asks Peter a question about his identity; not in some safe territory, but in a non-believing location. Perhaps that is why Jesus ...read more

    Take Up My Cross And Follow Me

     | 7,461 views

    Though we fall again and again, it is the getting up that marks the true child of God. So, we offer our lives in surrender to Christ’s purpose. The waters of our baptism renew in us the willing spirit that says, “Yes” to our own taking up the cross.

    In the famous words of the late American news commentator Paul Harvey, Matthew 16:21-28 is “the rest of the story”. It is a continuation from Matthew 16:13-20, in which Peter acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God. Now Jesus is telling his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem to ...read more

    A brief study on what it means to fear man. We need to realize either we fear God or we fear Man.

     | 18,853 views

    Why are you and I here? Why did God create us? What is our purpose in life? We were made to glorify and enjoy but how do we do that and what does that mean?
