How about making an important phone call, and all you get is a machine. The machine says, “If you live within the U.S. press 1; If ...read more

    Rules Or Reality Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 14, 2005
    based on 41 ratings
     | 8,953 views

    It’s much easier for us to follow rules than to allow the character of God to rule our behavior. Jesus challenges us to let go of law and let the Spirit guide.

When it comes to some things in life we like rules and laws – like the law of gravity: “In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles ...read more

    When Jesus meets the Syrophoenician woman He seems to act totally out of character. However there is a reason why He acts in this way … and it is a reason which gives us all hope.

    Mark 7:24-30 People of God in the Lord Jesus Christ, On many occasions in the Scriptures the actions of Jesus make perfect sense – but our text doesn’t seem to fit into that category does it. The way Jesus acts in this passage seems to be so out of character, doesn’t it.. In fact this is the ...read more

    Is God Fair?

    based on 24 ratings
     | 11,494 views

    To answer the question, we also have to ask: 1. Is God just? 2. Is God impartial? 3. Is God fair?

    Life is not fair. Most of us understand that. It was not fair that some children died at birth or had crippling diseases, and I have been allowed to live and enjoy good health. It was not fair that some were born with cerebral palsy and I was able to grasp difficult concepts and get passing ...read more

     | 8,094 views

    Jesus tongue is a sword. His words are God’s words and they have power to heal or destroy. How do we handle hearing harsh words from heaven’s holy herald?

    Read or quote Mark 7. Does God’s word ever say something that bothers you? I dare say, if you have never had that experience, you must not be reading your Bible much! The word of God comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable, does it not? God told Jeremiah, (23:29) "Is not My word ...read more

    Jesus Needs A Break! (Mark 7:24-37)

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,539 views

    Jesus Needs a Break! Depictions of Christ suffering on the cross are common in Christian literature and iconography. Few though are the depictions of Jesus walking around..

    Our Gospel reading this morning is from Mark chapter 7, where we come across a Jesus who is tired - tired, I think, to the point of exhaustion. This is not the sort of depiction of Jesus that is given much attention by the church. I’ve never seen a stained-glass window with an image of Jesus ...read more
