    Contributed by Dr John Singarayar Svd on Jun 22, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,464 views

    As a disciple of Jesus Christ, I focus on many temporary things rather than focusing on Christ’s mission to build the Kingdom of God on this earth permanently.

    Reflection Lose Your Life to Find the Life There was a priest, who was transferred from a parish. On his farewell day, he spoke for 45 minutes blowing his own trumpet that I have done this, I have done that, I started this, I started that. I went around preaching in many parishes and they ...read more

    Do you live a God centered, or self centered life?

    I’ve heard lots of graduation speeches in my time. Some have been good. Most, I’m afraid, were a bit boring. I remember one, however, was disturbing. The speaker was the valedictorian. He stood up to the podium and he thanked his father. Which sounded good -- at first. “My father taught me ...read more

    Desperation For God's Presence

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,083 views

    To avoid the ruination of our faith, we should follow in the path of the Psalmists and ever be longing for God.

    Opening illustration: Play video Introduction: Being desperate for God isn’t about acquiring His presence in our lives—we must already believe that God will always be with us and the Holy Spirit will accompany us everywhere. It’s about knowing He already exists in our lives—this desperate need for ...read more

    Worship should lead to transformation, no person can enter into the presence of GOD and remain unchanged.

    Romans 12:1-2 II Corinthians 3:18 Worship should lead to transformation We read in scripture where worship always had a transforming effect In Revelation when John saw Jesus, He fell as dead In Isaiah when he saw the Lord he saw himself more clearly As David worshiped he was constantly aware of the ...read more

    The Way Of The Cross

    Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024
     | 1,063 views

    In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

    Last week we heard about Jesus being tempted in the wilderness right after his Baptism. That’s the way it feels sometimes – you just make a decision and then things happen that immediately bring your decision into question. This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more

    There Is No Sin In The Cemetery [*]

    Baptism pictures the transformation that has taken place in the life of the child of God. How can we, then, continue to live as thought we were dead? To live as the world lives is to attempt to dig up the corpse we buried!

    “What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in ...read more

    HoHum: "Man is born with his back toward God. When he truly repents, he turns right around and faces God. Repentance is a change of mind." WBTU: Acts 26:19, 20, NIV.

     | 6,617 views

    We need to be sure we avoid being distracted from setting our hearts on developing a growing love relationship with God.

    In Matthew 6, Jesus emphasizes our love relationship with God. He uses the word “Father” 11 times, showing the importance of that relationship. Our relationship to the Father as His children is a most remarkable and incredible relationship. “For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave ...read more

    In a world that often glorifies self-reliance and independence, it's easy to fall into the trap of relying solely on our own understanding. However, Proverbs 3:5-6 challenges this notion and reminds us that true wisdom comes from aligning ourselves with God's will.

    Today I would like to focus on the need to instill happiness in our children by giving them a sense of self esteem or self worth.

    Here is the supreme argument for Christian giving. Grace giving flows out of the self-giving and self-impoverishing of the Son of God on man's behalf.

    2 CORINTHIANS 8: 9-15 [GAINING PERSPECTIVE Series] THE GRACIOUS GIVING OF JESUS CHRIST [Philippians 2: 1-13 / Mark 12:41–44] Paul has been using the Macedonians as an example but they were an example only because they followed Christ Jesus' example.

    Turning Hearts Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Sep 1, 2015
     | 4,803 views

    The idea of the sermon is the see the contrast between our tendencies to be self-serving or self-promoting versus having the humble spirit that promotes God. The Pharisee and Tax Collector in the parable of Luke 18.9-14 are the examples we will consider.

    1. Self Esteem and Funeral Director A mild mannered young man came into a counselor's office ready for a divorce. He complained that his wife was so bossy that she was driving him off the wall. He wanted things to change, immediately. The counselor gave him a book on assertiveness. He was so ...read more
