     | 8,639 views

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Nov 26, 2023
     | 724 views

    When Jesus endorsed the law, and said that we are to be more righteous than the Pharisees, did He mean that we are to keep all 613 Old Testament commandments more rigidly, or in a completely different manner? Let's find out in Matthew 5.

    Jesus condemned whoever sets aside the least of God’s commands. Does that mean that all 613 Old Testament commandments are still in force, like circumcision, Sabbaths and sacrifices? Let’s examine salt, light and the law in Matthew 5:13-20. Salt & Light What are Christ’s disciples? You are ...read more

    Getting Off The Exercise Wheel

    Contributed by Scott Chambers on Feb 2, 2011
     | 3,797 views

    This message is from a series that looks at God's desire for us to live life in a way that avoids being overloaded and overextended.

    If overloading ourselves has the ability to cause emotional, relational and spiritual dysfunction, why do we continually do it? The number one reason is that we do not see this as a problem. We simply assume that this is the way that life is and there is nothing that we can do about it. The second ...read more

    The Company We Keep, prt. 8. Dave teaches about the ancient practice of Lectio Divina, or "divine reading." This is a way of reading scripture that is more likely to produce transformation than the informational way most of us read it currently.
