    Finding rest & contentment in uncertain times by following the invitation of Jesus to "Come to Me"

    When we look at the first part of our text today we see Jesus talking to the people about living in a world of uncertainty, living a life of restlessness without peace and surety. “We played the flute and you didn’t dance, we played a funeral march and you didn’t weep and cry.” John Lived out in ...read more

    Take one day off a week to gain perspective and be more productive.

    Quick, do the math: A bat and a ball cost $1.10. The bat costs one dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost? If you came up with 10 cents, you’re in good company. That’s the answer most people come to. It’s intuitive, appealing, but WRONG! Do the math. If the ball costs 0.10 ...read more

    Sabbath Means Rest

     | 4,614 views

    Thus, if someone truly wants to observe the Sabbath Day in modern times (New Testament era), that’s a tall order! One that I do not think anyone could keep, because as religious as the Jews were, they could not keep it (Acts 15:10).

    SABBATH MEANS REST Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Q: What happens when we operate a cellphone, tablet, ipod, etc. all day? Q: What happens when we ride a horse all day? Q: What happens when we operate an air-conditioner all day? Q: ...read more

    We may not always realize it, or be ready to accept it...but when He tells us that He will do it... you better believe God always stands ready in every situation..to deliver us and to deliver his promises that he's made to us

    Bread, Water And Rest

    Contributed by Steve Anderson on Dec 18, 2014
     | 5,860 views

    Funeral sermon for a 16-year old who took his life by suicide at 3 AM by gunshot. It is based on what God provided Elijah when he wanted to die. Its intent is to offer the equivalent of bread, water and rest to the grieving, especially peers and family.

    Background (1 Kings 18): 450 idol prophets; 2 altars, 1 fire; Elijah stood up to 450 prophets of Baal but ran for his life when one woman threatened him (1 Kings 19:3-8). Elijah wanted to die, he had poured out his life for God and felt it had no impact. He was tired and in despair, depressed. ...read more

There is stress at home, stress at workplace, stress in business, stress in ministry, stress everywhere. Last night, I was reading an article in Economic Times (dated: ...read more

    Jesus Can Offer Peace The World Cannot Give!

    Introduction: The word “peace” only occurs five times in the Gospel of John. Two times before the resurrection of Jesus and three times after the resurrection of Jesus. I find it incredibly interesting that there are 88 occurrences of this word in the NT. The only NT book that does NOT contain ...read more
