    We can take events and opportunities to serve God, these things that are about God, and we can make them about us. When we do, the power of God, the holiness of God is lost on the very people we are attempting to serve in the name of God.

    I have been building a deck in my backyard this summer, right now I am placing the finishing touches on it.

    Dumb Dogs Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on May 14, 2013
     | 8,026 views

    Jesus is not impressed with the outward trappings of self-righteousness. He is impressed with a heart full of simple faith, which we find most often in the hearts of those we least expect. So like Jesus feed the "dogs" and touch the "dumb."

    Dumb Dogs (Mark 7:24-37) I like this thought posted by Mike Atkinson in his daily email humor list some time ago. "If you can start the day without caffeine; if you can get going without pep pills; if you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains; if you can resist complaining and boring ...read more

    Jesus compared his disciples to juicy grapes attached to a healthy, living vine. How important is it to bear fruit? What happens when we become lazy or self-centered and stop bearing fruit? How dependent are we on being attached to Christ?

    A Tour of John 15:1-17 We Are Planted and Pruned to Produce Juicy Fruit 1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. 3 You have already been pruned for ...read more

    Moses talked about the watering of the land, the need to depend on God's provision, and the watching of the land, to need to depend on God's protection.

    The people stands at the brink of a new life, in a new land that God is giving them. • Moses ends “his career” here with a series of sermons, before he makes his final climb up Mount Nebo and passes on from there. • These are important, final words from a great leader, ...read more
