    In the race, it doesn't matter how long it takes to finish but what is important is that you continue. Never ever get tired and avoid getting burn out. It is when you lose the passion to run even you are still in a race.

    When we run the race our calling is to be jars of clay. The Christian race is not run to bring attention to ourselves, but to put all the attention onto the treasure which is within us. When we run like this then we are running well.

    Message 2 Corinthians 4:1-18 Run Well We are continuing our series on “Running the Race”. Today our focus will be on the question of “Running Well”. As we think about this question I want to bring your mind back to 1983. It was the year an ultra-marathon took place in Australia. A running race ...read more

    Discovering the purpose of our "personal relationship with our Lord and Savior" by looking at Exodus 3:1-10. God wants to save His people, and He chooses the ordinary things to be His spokesmen.

    “First Love: Love with a Purpose One of the catch phrases of Christianity is the phrase, “personal Lord and Savior.” It’s a good phrase; it implies several things: § It implies that Jesus and God are personal, that they’re intimately concerned with the very smallest details of your life.

    The cross reveals the holiness and the sinfulness of man, Christ resurrection is the bud of promise and our resurrection is the flower of fulfillment, so the most rewarding end of life is to know the life that never ends.
