     | 326,090 views

    Ask yourself, “Am I righteous?” Few people would answer with an unqualified “yes.” But if your answer is “yes,” and you believe that you are righteous through unblemished right living, I hope to show you righteousness lies elsewhere.

    Note: I have a short set of very simple PowerPoint slides that I will be happy to provide on request. They're very plain and have only the two equations mentioned plus a few of the major points in the sermon.

    Let us reach out to those who are pushed aside like the Jews have been, those who are marginalized because of their race or religion or other prejudice. We should not fear that which we do not understand but rather we should seek to understand that which we fear.

    Open eyes and an open heart Matthew 25:31-46NIV This week I helped my Mom with her citizenship. My Mother is an American citizen and proud of it.

     | 6,354 views

    The path to meet Jesus may come as a surprise to some. Instead of being cloaked in robes of religion, Jesus is clothed in rags of need.

    Matthew 25:31-46 “Turning the Tables” INTRODUCTION Whether in high school or college most of us have had the joy of taking a “final.” We studied hard for the final, because a large percentage of our grade was determined by this one test. More than a few all-nighters ...read more

    Happy New Year’s Eve! As we look back to our past and the resolutions that we haven’t fulfilled, and look forward expectantly, we look to the forgiveness found in the cross of Christ.

    Following Christ involves ’being’ not just ’doing’.

    Men seem to be wired to describe who we are in terms of our jogs. Women describe themselves in terms of relationships. These aren’t’ good or bad they simply are.
