    Contributed by Glenn Durham on Feb 12, 2008
    based on 11 ratings
     | 7,610 views

    God calls us to decide for Jesus, even when doing so divides families and friends.

    Scripture Introduction Two snowflakes drop softly from a dark cloud.

    A Command For The Compulsive

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 27, 2009
    based on 13 ratings
     | 6,619 views

    Sabbath rest addresses our compulsive need to be busy by giving us a day for authentic enjoyment, by providing a vivid contrast with other days, and by giving us a glimpse of eternal rest.

    God rested. Well, why not? After all, He had had a busy week, almost as busy as ours! Some of us have had weeks like that, when we’ve had to build the moon and the stars, separate the waters from the dry land, and bring forth swarms of living creatures, all in one week. Every parent knows what ...read more

    Salvation - A Relationship

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Apr 24, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,629 views

    To place our faith in the performance of a salvation ritual is to place our faith in the person leading us to the ritual; but, if we place our faith in a relationship with Jesus Christ we have placed our faith in the author and sustainer of salvation.

    SALVATION – A RELATIONSHIP INTRODUCTION If a person is uncomfortable with the idea that there is no special event or ritual that marks the time and place of their salvation, then they certainly have a great deal of company. In fact, almost all existing denominations and Christian religious ...read more
