Let me read this story from the AP: “The U.S. is simply abandoning tons of equipment because shipping it home would cost too much… Military planners have decided to ...read more

     | 5,303 views

    How do we live out our salvation? Do our lives represent a surrendered life?

    Not what I will… The two "basics" we have addressed so far are salvation and the church. First, we discovered why we must be saved and how we can be saved.

    Jesus warns his followers about hard times near at hand, in the current age, and in the future end times. Today we will look at the “then” and the “now.” Next time we will begin to address the “later.”

    Addressing The Realities Of Life Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 23, 2015
     | 7,154 views

    Being human is generally a good thing. The temptation in our day is to manipulate or engineer human nature and deny its realities. But a church is about real people, redeemed by Jesus, but fully human — even more human — because of that redemption.

    Addressing the Realities of Life (I Timothy 5:1-16) 1. Some people have a sanitized view of life. Life, however, is often less glamourous. 'Cash, check or charge?' I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As she fumbled for her wallet, I noticed a remote control for a ...read more
