     | 5,094 views

    In chapter 9, we explore having the Lord as your avocation – finding the best fit for you, fitting in with others, and becoming fit to excel in His service.

    Do you have an avocation? I don’t mean a hobby you play at – or a job you work at – but something that really interests you – something you’ll spend hours and hours working on, even when you don’t have to? For some people its fishing – they not only have specific flies to catch specific fish in ...read more

    Sermon for Martin Luther King Day: we must go "down the road" of compassion, understanding that human hurts are both physical and spiritual, that we must see hurting people as our neighbors, and that we must devote substantial resources to caring for them

    There’s something we say every time we find ourselves repeating an unpleasant experience. Whenever you see yourself about to get into the same trouble you’ve already been in, you say, “I don’t want to go down that road again.” For example: Some fellow comes to your door and says, “We’ve been ...read more

    To see a change in our world today, we need to PRAY and PROCLAIM Christ. Pray is to talk to God for men, and proclaim is to talk to men for God.

    2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. 3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 5 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; ...read more

     | 4,020 views

    Today we want to look at a conversation between the Lord Jesus and a woman at the well. We find this conversation recorded in the gospel of John.

    As many of you know, John is not included in the synoptic gospels. WHY? The Lord’s earthly ministry was around 3 1/2 years. • The synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke deal with the last year of His ministry. They dealt with a lot of things in His ministry, but not in much detail. • The ...read more

    Did you know that only 15% of churches in America are healthy? Could God be asking us to change? If so, in what areas? How do we identify what God is wanting us to change?

    An interesting article that I found. “Age changes things.” Who changed everything when I wasn’t looking? I’ve noticed lately that everything is farther away than it used to be. It’s even twice as far to the corner now, and they’ve added a hill! I’ve given up running for the bus; it leaves much ...read more
