     | 9,203 views

    Trusting ourselves is sometimes a dangerous choice. If we only rely on ourselves to solve all our problems we will fail. God’s Word says all our trust should be in Him.

    Who do you trust? That is quite a question I think. Its kind of makes me laugh at when I think of everything we trust in. Let’s start out with your day and look at what you trust in.

    In contrast to the ambition to acquire the applause and approval of men, Jesus turns his disciples toward the powerless -- toward children -- as exemplars of Himself, His Father, and the ones his disciples should seek to serve.

    Psalm 54, Wisdom 1:16 - 2:22, James 3:16-4:6, Mark 9:30-37 Apostles, Christians, and Children Sometimes, the disciples of Jesus don’t come off very well in the gospels, and today’s Gospel lesson is one of those times.

    Say “It’s about my heart!” I. The background from which Joel speaks. 1. Here, in chapter 2, Joel begins by talking about a disaster that is coming to the people of Judah. 2. An “army” of locusts has come into Judah, devastating the land. 3. Today, we may not fully understand the devastation ...read more

    Paul is chastizing the Corinthians for thinking they are spiritually mature when in fact they are still in need of the milk or basics of God’s word. The question this should cause us to ask ourselves is are we building or breaking!

    Intro: Why did Paul write this letter? He wrote it because the conduct of the Corinthians did not match their confession of Christ. Division, strife, incest it sounds like a soap opera gone bad. We have to remember many of the Christians that Paul minister came out of a corrupt and selfish ...read more
