    At times we find ourselves forgetting or disregarding the way and word of God. When we do this we find that we let the characteristics of our salvation slip into darkness.

    I. Introduction A. Hebrews 2:1-4 2:1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. 2:2 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; 2:3 ...read more

    In a culture which prizes self-sufficiency, we need to rely on God.

    Australian males prize self-sufficiency. It’s not masculine to ask anyone else for help. It’s not macho to admit that you can’t handle something on your own. I’m probably one of the worst offenders when it comes to having this sort of attitude. I hate anyone having to show me how to do anything, ...read more

We decide to start something great and wonderful, and then in the matter of a few days, or weeks, or months we are tired of it. What once ...read more

    When we live in ways consistent with our old sinful nature we’re like an old car that no longer exhibits the beauty and functions of its original design. That all changes when we receive a new life, a new nature, a new heart and a new spirit.

    Prayer: Lord, please renew your church. Let her beauty be seen as she reflects your radiance. Empower her to serve the purposes for which you made her. Lord, please renew each of us that our lives will reflect your image, glory and beauty. Renew us to accomplish the work for which you designed ...read more
