    based on 1 rating
     | 5,860 views

    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.

    You are God’s Masterpiece in Christ Jesus. This message is especially for any Christian trying to measure up and gain God’s favor rather than living in the approval that is his already in Christ.

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

    We are overloaded!!! Americans are living their lives at a break-neck pace, pushing the limits to live up to the expectations put on them by society. When compared to lives fifty years ago we see that there is something conspicuously missing. Our lives have very little time and space; if any. ...read more

    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

    Sabbath As Defiance

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Apr 26, 2015
     | 5,174 views

    The Sabbath is a transformative tradition, an antidote to anxiety. We are restless till we find our rest in God. We set aside our anxieties and busyness, our pursuit of more, and we recognize that our refuge is God alone.

    The President of local synagogue, and a close friend of mine, asked me if I knew the most sacred Jewish holy day. I said it must be either Passover or Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). He smiled and said, “No, it’s the Sabbath. It is the most important day in the Jewish ...read more
