    Paul was able to really assess all he had put confidence in… concludes that knowing Christ who holds the power of eternal risen life… and even to share in his sufferings as part of knowing him… was the greatest purpose and pleasure life offered.

    What is at the center of your life? Hard question to answer… some of us may be honestly divided … some of us may know what we believe should be… but the longer we reflect on the question…. The more we realize that we may not be as centered as we’d like to believe. Show me a centered life… and ...read more

    Christmas Eve -The Power Of Belief

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,636 views

    Its not WHAT I believe in, it is WHO I place my faith in. WHO I place my faith in is stronger, for Jesus is able to overcome what I am not able to overcome.

    Belief is a powerful thing. What I believe in makes me who I am, I am what I believe. What we believe molds us into who we are; What we believe colors our view of the world around us; What we believe motivates us to stand up for something or stand up against something. What we believe in may ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,086 views

    Our world is incurably religious and is filled with people on a spiritual search. We find it easy to talk religion, but our calling is to share our relationship with the living Christ.

    We are incurably religious! Wherever you go, you will find that people are religious. We are groping for something we never quite find. Ride with me up and down Sixteenth Street, here in the city, or out New Hampshire Avenue, past Colesville. The architecture is ample proof that people are ...read more

     | 4,303 views

    An empty niche above the church door, made for a statue of a saint, but now containing a hornet’s nest, suggests the choice of letting our lives be empowered by God or letting the sting of death and disappointment take over.

    The other day I was hauling in a load of stuff from my car. I came in the Aspen Street entrance to the building, the entrance nearest my office. For some reason, as I was carrying things through the door, I looked up above my head, probably to implore the Lord to give me an extra ounce of muscle ...read more
