    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 5, 2008
     | 1,960 views

    The philosophers of Paul’s day are not really that much different from what we see in the world around us in a post-Christian society. How Paul addressed them can help us in dealing with people who collect thoughts like Matchbox cars.

    What did you collect as a child? I collected a number of things, pennies, model trains, marbles, and Matchbox® cars. I would wait anxiously until my mother would drive me down to the toy store so I could drool over the latest and greatest tiny little car or truck. I used to show off my more ...read more

So listen up because it is all about YOU this morning. Hearing is an act of responsibility, so ...read more

     | 1,173 views

    The apostle Paul went through a lot of troubles, but he always found reasons to thank God. When writing to the church in Thessalonica he says that there were many things about them for which he continued to be thankful.

    Receiving And Treasuring

     | 2,117 views

    If we don’t understand the purpose of the Word, we’ll miss out on the life of God. Through His Word, God transforms us more into his likeness. Every word in scripture is a doorway to the heart of God and a stairway into the realms of God.

    Receiving and Treasuring – Proverbs 2:1 Intro.: The first focus that Solomon lays out has to do with the way we treat the Word of God. Proverbs 2:1 – “…if you receive my words and treasure my commands within you…” The “receiving” refers to how we posture ourselves before the Word of God and ...read more

We want to speak to you on a truth that we studied together some time ago. But, since we’re ...read more

    We aren't called to be observers but to be doers.

    1 John 3:16-19 (NLT) 16 We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters.  This isn't necessarily dying physically for someone but we should be willing to give a part of ourselves for others ...read more

    Contributed by James Awosina on Jul 2, 2019
     | 3,039 views

    To profit from the Word requires an action of faith. Reading, hearing and receiving the Word passively and superficially is of no profit to a person.

    FAITH’S RESPONSE TO THE WORD FOR OPTIMAL PROFIT Hebrews 4:2 “For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it” “The Word preached did not profit them…” What a fearful declaration!
