     | 7,156 views

    MERCY IS SOMETHING THAT IS IN SHORT SUPPLY IN OUR WORLD TODAY, AND I WOULD DARE SAY IN THE CHURCH. MERCY AND FORGIVENESS IS SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE SHOWERED ON US, BUT DON’T ASK US TO DO THE SAME FOR SOMEONE ELSE. IT’S NOT IN OUR NATURE.

    THE BLESSED MERCIFUL PSALM 103 MUCH OF JESUS’ TEACHING IN THE BEATITUDES EITHER COMES DIRECTLY FROM, OR IS CLOSELY RELATED TO THE OLD TESTAMENT. SUCH IS THE CASE WITH THE BEATITUDE WE ARE STUDYING TODAY CONCERNING THE MERCIFUL. MERCY IS SOMETHING THAT IS IN SHORT SUPPLY IN OUR WORLD TODAY, AND I ...read more

    Although Paul was bound under house arrest, the Gospel wasn't. God used Paul's situation in Rome to reach out to the Jewish leaders, the guards, and the believers in Rome and other places through his writings over the two years. God's work cannot be bound.

     | 2,876 views

    Today, we live in a divorce culture; a society without “commitment.” Consumerism causes people to always look for the next best model; and disposability and its take-and-toss attitude has translated into a mindset of divorce.

    When asked on his fiftieth wedding anniversary about his rule for marital bliss and longevity, Henry Ford replied, “It’s just the same as in the automobile business, stick to one model.”(1) When he made this statement, Henry Ford was talking about commitment. I want to share a definition of ...read more
