    based on 66 ratings

    Jesus was not afraid to reach out to the "outcasts" of His society. When He did, important truths were revealed that we need to know.

    "When Jesus Interrupts the Outcast" Luke 5:27-32 INTRODUCTION Have you ever felt like an outcast? Some people are rejected by people because of their race, color, or background. Some are rejected for their beliefs. Some rejected because of behavior. You can be poor or rich, powerless or ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,601 views

    When our desire for something better gets bigger than the reasons "why not" then we are on our way to receiving from God, but it takes determination on our part, then God will meet us there....

    Luke 5:27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me. 28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.

    People, Like Pennies

    Contributed by Timothy Darling on Feb 2, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,250 views

    Wealth in our lives is measured in many ways. Pennies are a small measure of money, but Benjamin Franklin would have told you that a penny saved is a penny earned. Friends in our lives are another kind of wealth that we may not value highly enough. Wherev

    Be A Matthew

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 25, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,073 views

    Unlike the Pharisees, Jesus saw Matthew’s need, his worth and his potential. Matthew understood his own need, was willing to follow Christ and shared the Good News.

    We are going to look at a man called Levi (also called Matthew in Matt 9:9-12). I will use the more familiar name Matthew here. It is surprising that Jesus would even call a tax-collector to follow Him. • Jesus was preparing a group of disciples who would eventually bring the good news about ...read more

    Can You Be A Christian Without Being Religious? Series

    Contributed by Dr. George Calhoun on Oct 30, 2008
    based on 10 ratings
     | 12,502 views

    Christianity differs from all religions in that it’s not about us finding God, but about us responding to God who has been reaching out to us.

    Can you be a Christian without being religious? It almost sounds like a contradiction in terms. However, according to Webster, a religion is a system of faith and worship... Christianity is certainly that! According to Webster, a religion is the service to and the adoration of God expressed in ...read more

    Stewardship Of A "Patchless” Life Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 3, 2010
    based on 66 ratings
     | 18,880 views

    The Pharisees lived by a "patches" theology - if they could patch over the sin in their lives, the hole didn’t exist anymore. But Christians are not called to patch our old way of life. Do you know what we’re to do instead?

    OPEN: I’ve noticed over the years that kids love jokes that are plays on words. For example, when I was a kid (now I never did this myself, you understand), but I’ve known kids who would call a neighbor and ask: “Is your refrigerator running?” (pause). When the person on the other end of the line ...read more
