    8th in the series "Coversations With Jesus." Jesus gives sight to one blind man, but the spiritually blind Pharisees fail to perceive the Light of the World.

    Introduction: Clip from DVD "AT First Sight" where bandages are taken off of Virgil’s eyes. Medical experts have found that Virgil’s experience is typical of those who have either never had sight or who lost it at an early age.

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,463 views

    Our words, actions and lives are to glorify God. In other words, we are to reflect Christ for others to see. The problem is trying to reflect the light of Christ.

    Glory Road John 12:20-26 Steve May tells the story of Dennis Byrd, who was an up-and-coming defensive tackle for the New York Jets. He was predicted to help turn the Jets organization around and recorded 27 sacks in his first 3 years. Then tragedy struck. On November 29, 1992, the Jets were playing ...read more

    What Is Church?

    Contributed by Greg Nance on May 3, 2011
     | 6,303 views

    This may be one of the most misunderstood concepts in the Christian faith. A look into the word of God in Matthew brings to light the amazing calling that Jesus intends for us.

    What is Church? Listen to Matthew 16:13-28. Pay attention to how Jesus describes "Church," his path, and our relationship with Him. Matthew 16:18 gives us the first mention of the English word “church” in the New Testament. In all of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John this word “church” only occurs ...read more

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 12, 2012
     | 3,469 views

    As in the story of Judas, there are dark passages in the Bible, but they can help us if we use an interpretation which enables their meaning to emerge in the light of the mystery of Christ.

    Feast of St. Matthias 14 May 2012 Verbum Domini Today’s feast gives us an opportunity to reflect on one of the darkest moments in our salvation history. The crucifixion of Jesus was set up by a traitor, Judas “the Iscariot.” It also helps us to consider what the Holy Father and ...read more

    Trapped In The Fog

     | 5,912 views

    The man born blind was trapped in the fog from birth. Until the light of Christ illuminates us, we too are trapped in the fog from birth.

    “Trapped in the FOG” Introduction: Today we are introduced to a man who’s name could very well be “Mr. Born Blind.” Born Blind is a strange mixture of words in the believer’s community. It’s a kind of oxymoron. We generally think of acquired sickness or sickness that results from sin generally or ...read more

    Of Grace And Envy

     | 5,169 views

    How is the Kingdom of heaven to be understood in light of laboring for Christ while the world enjoys the pleasures of sin? The parable of Jesus in Matthew 20 is helpful here.

    Matthew 20:1-16 Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard Jesus introduces this parable saying that the kingdom of heaven is like this. That's an impressive, if not disturbing introduction to this particular parable for many reasons. I believe that the kingdom of heaven in Matthew's gospel applies ...read more

    Outliing the need to work together even when there are people we do not like are part of the team. Put the armour of light on and bury the clock of darkness.

    A church that has a vacancy can often cause worry to its members especially nowadays as we search for the right person to come and fill the vacancy. In the days of old, it used to be a whole lot easier to fill a vacant pulpit; we went to the Union and asked them who they had available? Who would ...read more
