The Source Of Self-Worth

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Nov 4, 2017

Jesus teaches three ways NOT to go after self-worth, and then concludes with the only truly lasting and meaningful way to find one's worth. Not only that, but he models that true way for us.

Matthew 23:1-12 The Source of Self-worth Do you ever wonder why some people are such jerks? Sometimes people can be so cruel to others! And yet, behind the facade of the bully lies a deep insecurity, a fear of rejection. Our bookstores are full of books about self-worth. I did a quick search on ...read more

What Is Truth?

Contributed by Dwight Davis on Aug 18, 2023

Wow. Has our society today lost hold on absolute truth or what? I shudder to think how blurred the line between right and wrong, good and evil, righteous and unrighteous will be five years from now! This message attempts to bring some clarity to that all-important question; what is truth?

What Is Truth? You and I live in a world that has almost totally rejected the existence of absolute truth. The current pervading mindset today seems to be that everyone has their own truth, and that everyone else must affirm them in whatever truth they claim to have—despite how ridiculous it may ...read more

Doers, Not Hearers Series

Contributed by Daniel Teberian on Mar 16, 2023

Our faith is worthless if it does not produce good works. In James 1:22-25, we are called to act according to the faith that we have in God. In order to serve the Lord, we must act upon our faith.

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into ...read more
