Our Own Place

Contributed by Jon Lipka on Jun 10, 2012

Christian humility sees rightly, neither higher nor lower than we really are, and allows Christians freedom to be who they are in Chirst and accept their role and place in His Body with joy.

Today’s reading all speak about humility. Humility is knowing exactly who we are. Pride is thinking that we are someone that we’re not. Humility is all about knowing who we are, not in the world’s sight, but according to God’s judgment. The world looks at a man’s ...read more

Abstaining From Worldly Associations

Contributed by Donnie Martin on Nov 23, 2011

Paul taught that the corrupt ways of the world was totally incongruent with the life that is in Christ. The Apostle Paul asks some searching questions to point out the absurdity of Christians trying to straddle the spiritual fence in their daily life.

Deep Community

Contributed by Jim Belcher on Oct 1, 2009

How do you achieve deep community and fellowship within a group of believers?

What took a small, scared group of believers and filled them with so much confidence that they eventually became the dominant religion in the Roman empire? We are looking at the aftermath of Peter’s sermon. On that day 3,000 believed. The church went from 120 to 3120. A few days latter another ...read more

Walk In Righteousness

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 3, 2025

We live in the midst of a rapidly changing culture, one that has no desire for that which is righteous and holy. The church is being pressured to abandon the truths of Scripture in order to conform to the dictates of the culture.

Walk in Righteousness Ephesians 5: 3-7 In our last study, Paul admonished believers to follow the Lord, literally being imitators of God. In order to accomplish such an enormous task, we must walk in the love of Christ the Lord. Those who are purposefully following the Lord and walking in the love ...read more

Of A Different Spirit

Contributed by Tarran Dookie on Nov 6, 2023

The Challenge To Care

Contributed by John Dobbs on May 23, 2024

One way Paul is going to encourage this is by getting to the root of their greatest interest - and often ours - he wants them to join in concern for others by donating funds.

The Reality Of The Rapture Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 6, 2021
