    Sermon – Caring for Godly Leadership Scripture Lesson: 2 Samuel 23:8 -17 “These are the names of David’s mightiest warriors. The first was Jashobeam (people will return) the Hacmonite, who was leader of the Three—the three mightiest warriors among David’s men. He once used his spear to kill 800 ...read more

    We like to be invited to things. It makes us feel good to be on the guest list. It tells you the person cares and wants you to be a part of what they're doing. Jesus gave an invitation in Matt. 11:28-30. Let's take a look at this invitation and see what we can learn.

    COME TO ME Matt. 11:28-30 We like to be invited to things. Depending on the event, we might get a fancy, overpriced invitation in the mail, requesting our presence at such-and-such.

    Many of us are given to obsessive behavior. Healing comes when we name it for what it is and accept a healthy substitute. A relationship with Christ will erase destructive obsessive behavior.

    Success in life is about one-half drive and one-half perspective. To get anywhere, to accomplish anything, you have to mix both drive and perspective. You have to blend both drive and push, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, the ability to back off and look at your drivenness. Most of the ...read more

    Sad to say there are too many Christians that are walking around with an, "OUT OF ORDER," sign about them. They are not in a fit state to be used of the Master, nor are they producing the fruit that they should be producing.

    Out of Order 1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Recently there were those in the UK who were opposed to the war in Iraq (2003) and decided upon a ...read more
