    This sermon will review three vital questions : are you on the right track, do you have passion to run, are you looking back or are you looking forward and striving to become more like Jesus so that upon His return you might hear the words “good and faithful servant”?

    We study when men become baskecases. From Jerusalem to Emmaus is about 7 miles. Doubt, fear and failure can grow and hinder spiritual progress. We need to let Jesus walk with us.

    Journey Forward

    The devil and the world keep us busy. Our flesh enjoys being busy with the world, enjoying the stuff of it. One after another we have excuses- all seem reasonable! But do they count to be any good for us in the long run? We are so short sighted and blind towards the future!

    Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be you dismayed: for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go” Here is a young man (Joshua) God has called to lead a great number of people to an unknown future. He does not know the journey ahead. ...read more

    Step Three - Pursuing Your Purpose Series

     | 16,365 views

    Someone who sits idly without a purpose is an easy target for temptation. We are easily drawn away when we don’t have a purpose we are reaching for. When we are reaching ahead, we have to stop and change directions in order to sin.

    Step Three - Pursuing Your Purpose The final step I want to focus on in overcoming sinful habits is your purpose. Each of our lives has been created by God for a purpose. As long as we are living outside of that purpose, there will be emptiness and a desire to crowd our lives with pleasures and ...read more

     | 882 views

    When a Christian sins they must follow the teaching of 1 John 1:9, which is speaking to believers when it says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

    "Professor Drummond once described a man going into one of our after meetings and saying he wanted to become a Christian. "Well, my friend, what is the trouble?" He doesn't like to tell. He is greatly agitated. Finally he says, "The fact is, I have overdrawn my ...read more

    The Holy Spirit gives us a special grace of self-discipline that comes with being completely controlled by the Spirit of God. Ask the Lord to help you overcome your natural tendency to shy away from what God wants you to think, do and become.

    Let the Spirit Enhance Your Self-Control Capacities 1 Thessalonians 5:6-18 Illustration: SPIRITUAL POWER In a seminary missions class, Herbert Jackson told how, as a new missionary, he was assigned a car that would not start without a push.

    Are we able to rejoice, even when the times get rough? Or does our faith depend on everything “going our way?” There is a cotton-candy like view of Christianity that promises all health and wealth, but it melts away when reality strikes.

    Acts 16:16-34 “Freedom in a Prison Cell” There is a lot to be learned from the example of Christians who live in third-world countries, and don’t have the freedom we might often take for granted. Will Willimon tells the story of a Bishop from Angola who came to visit America a ...read more

    Jesus told the rich young ruler to sell everything that he had, give it to the poor and follow Him. Do I have to give away everything to follow Christ? Do I have to sell all that I have in order to please Him?

    Ravi Zacharias tells the story about a boy that loved collecting marbles. He lived next door to a little girl who had a lot of candy. She said to him: “If you’ll give me all of your marbles, I’ll give you all of my candy.” He said he’d think about it. The next ...read more

    One way we can respond to a disaster like the Tsunami in Asia, apart from the obvious response of generosity to those in need is to call again on Jesus Christ, the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, thanking him for his sacrifice that makes

    We need to be very careful when we think about a great natural disaster like the tsunami in Asia that we don’t jump to conclusions too quickly.

    Christmas Day 1988: Jesus came into a world full of fears about economics, government, health, and the rest. Our pretty porcelain manger scenes are not realistic. But when Jesus comes today and works through us, He works to drive away all the fears that

    A certain family, a number of years ago, as was their custom, lovingly and carefully set out their beautiful porcelain nativity scene for Christmas. They were so very proud of this delicate, fragile thing of beauty; they had paid a good deal of money for it on a trip to Europe, and its value could ...read more

    Beware Of Mammon

     | 1,270 views

    Have you ever wondered, if you take away the music and the money power from today’s churches what will remain? How many people will still be attending the assemblies? God’s work does not suffer because of the lack of money as some money loving preachers say.

    Our Lord said, “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” (Matthew 6:24). When God and mammon become rivals, one or other will inevitably be rejected. In spiritual ...read more

    Our risen Lord thrusts us into a future we’d never choose but we’d hate to lose.

    THE FAMILY I GREW UP IN was highly conflicted. You would think that, for all the fighting we did, we would have gotten good at it – or, at least, that we would have seen something constructive come out of it. But the incessant bickering never seemed to bring about change; we just grew ...read more
