    Why did Herod want to kill the Christ child? His motivation has much in common with those today who want to kill Christmas.

    Swallowed Up

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,104 views

    Any time you run from God, you never go “up"; you always go “down.” God sometimes allows us to face frightening circumstances so that we will learn to trust and obey Him. It’s always best to obey the Lord right away - then we won’t be “swallowed up.”

    Opening illustration: Being shocked by electricity can be very dangerous. Just ask professional golf legend Lee Trevino. He was struck by lightning while sitting under a tree during a tournament several years ago. He said, “It bolted my arms and legs out stiff, jerked me off the ...read more

    Don’t be ashamed of the gospel. It’s the power of God for salvation for those who believe

    What I want to do today is to look at these opening verses of this letter to the Romans and think about why Paul wrote it. What we’ll find is that Paul’s motivation comes from a sense of responsibility for the great gift God has given him in the gospel, his confidence comes from the power of God he ...read more

    Discover God’s provisions for regaining hope in life.

What I need to work on is agreeing with the Apostle Paul’s insight in Romans 8:18, "I consider that our ...read more
