    What Or Who You Exhibit In Your Life Defines Who You Are

    Contributed by Richard Papafio on Jul 29, 2018
     | 2,807 views

    You are defined by what people see you do or hear you say. And your definition is always connected to a person, place or thing. This tells what or who you represent to those defining you.

    May the peace of the Lord be with you. Topic: WHAT OR WHO YOU EXHIBIT IN YOUR LIFE DEFINES WHO YOU ARE Acts 14:8-12 King James Version (KJV) 8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: 9 The same heard Paul speak: ...read more

     | 1,582 views

    What is hope? Where do we find hope? How do we get hope? What do we hope in? Who do we put our hope in? We have something others are looking for – HOPE. We must be ready to share the Reason for our hope. Answer: My HOPE is built on nothing less than JESUS' Blood and Righteousness!

    You Are Accepted

    Contributed by Doug Morrell on Dec 5, 2005
    based on 11 ratings
     | 5,408 views

    The reason we think and many times say such terrible things about others is that we do not truly accept that we are accepted. We are haunted by guilt because we have never accepted and forgiven ourselves.

    Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. Or so we have been told. However, the Bible tells us that our words have the power of life and death (Proverbs 18:21). God also tells us that only wholesome talk should come from our mouths and that we should encourage one another ...read more

     | 71,779 views

    Before you can change you must decide that you want to be changed. There was a reason Jesus asked the question of the lame man, "Do you want to be well?" All of us must answer this crucial question.

    `“A Lame Excuse” John 5:1-15 Jesus has now come up from the city of Cana to the city of Jerusalem to celebrate one of the religious feasts. In Jerusalem there were different gates to enter and they were used for a variety of purposes. One of these gates was called the Sheep gate. ...read more

    My Struggles Are All About God Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jan 31, 2022
     | 3,436 views

    Do our struggles and suffering have a reason or a purpose? God can use our struggles and suffering to bring Him glory. But we must make our struggles all about God, and not about us.

    A. As I meditated on suffering and struggles this week, these ideas came forth in my mind: Suffering is paradoxical. Suffering is bad and good. Suffering is painful and helpful. Suffering is confusing and enlightening. Suffering isolates and builds community. Suffering may lead to death or ...read more

    The Armor Of God 7 Of 8

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 1,226 views

    The reason many of us like to study on the Armor of God is because Paul does not just tell us to run for the hills. He also tells us what we are to do once we get to the hills.

    He tells us in this passage of scripture how we can DEFEND OURSELVES and how we can DEFEAT SATAN. One of the obvious problems it seems among Christians today is that they are not aware they are at war with Satan.
