    A lot of people believe that there were just two thieves hanging on those crosses on Calvary’s mountain. Well, Luke lets me know that there was some more thievery going on that day...

    And Then There Were Three Thieves… Scripture Text: Luke 23:39 – 43 Introduction: Under normal circumstances, it doesn’t feel good to be taken from.

    Christianity in general and our churches in particular are being pounded from without and within into facades of irrelevancy. . .

Leupold, Lifepointe Fellowship, Hutto, TX 6/26/11 AM INTRO: A DEFINING CHALLENGE Through twenty years of active and broad ministry, I think I have a pretty good understanding of what is happening in the American Church overall. ...read more

    Handling Temptation Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 16, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,271 views

    One of the most difficult things for a Christian is to resist temptation. Satan brings temptations to us and tries to make it easy and logical for us to fulfill legitimate needs. Jesus shows us just how crafty he is, and how to resist.

    We love the great times, don’t we? The times when we feel God’s Spirit flowing through us and when others recognize the Lord in us and rejoice. Wouldn’t it be great if every day was like the baptism of Jesus—with the Spirit of God descending like a dove on us and God telling us He is pleased with ...read more

    Are You Mma Read? Series

    Contributed by Larry Turner on Oct 1, 2015

    In spiritual warfare there are no rules, no rounds, no countouts, no one to stop the fight. Whoever fights the hardest, the meanest, and lasts the longest will win. There is no draw. You either win the battle or lose the battle.

    This week I caught a glimpse of the MMA. Has anyone seen these matches? They are brutal. They take place in a cage where two opponents fight three to five rounds. Every round is 5 minutes in duration with one-minute rest period in-between rounds. Non-title matches must not exceed three rounds. ...read more

    Lengthy and loaded. Confrontational and convicting. All reasons we very seldom (but need to) spend time in the One One Nine!

    119 - Pt. 2 I. Introduction It is long. It is lengthy. It is passed over by those who prefer brevity. It is neglected by those who prefer short and sweet. It is shunned by the Reader's Digest crowd. However, in its great length is also has great depth. Multifaceted. It is rich. It is worth the ...read more
