Real Love- Part 2 Series

Contributed by Kiruba Stephen on Feb 25, 2022

Imagine, if the Lord’s condition for coming down and dying for our souls and doing anything for us was based on whether we’ll be thankful or not.

Puroseful Praise Or Not?

Contributed by Craig Benner on Mar 23, 2013

Is the praise and worship that we offer to the Lord everything that it is perceived to be? Meaning well and doing right for the long term may sometimes be two different things.

Do You Pray Religiously Or Wholeheartedly?

Contributed by Stephen Smarowsky on Oct 27, 2008

I know many families that pray as if it were an old tune. Are we just praying repetitously or is our heart in it? Jesus gives us some examples on how to pray.

"The Lord’s prayer" was given during Christ’s Sermon on the Mount to provide an example for how we should approach the throne of grace. Prayer is the prelude to peace, the prologue to power, the preface to ...read more
