    The Night Before Christmas

    Contributed by Michael Luke on May 29, 2016
     | 11,765 views

    Jesus’ birth is not just supernatural, it’s educational. Along with educational, it’s also transformational. What Jesus thought before he was born influenced the way he lived.

     | 4,450 views

    Sometime change in our, and our churches, Christian perspective is so slow that we fail to recognize what is happening. It is like the drip-by-drip change, which Nazi ideology brought to Germany.

    Countering Drip-by-Drip Change...

While it is true that early on some Germans openly adopted pagan and irreligious ...read more

    Just as it is important to restore the forms of NT Christianity, it is also important to restore the heart of NT Christianity. And at the heart of NT Christianity is discipleship.

    Every Born-Again Christian has the anointing of God which provides the ability to have an intimate relationship with Him

    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,404 views

    Within the church there has been a great influx of human psychology mixed with Scripture. This has resulted in a convoluted understanding of the human mind and heart, as they are examined and studied from man’s perspective, rather than from God’s.

    The Enneagram System of personality typing has surged in popularity among American Christians, especially among the young who are culturally steeped in both the practices of church doctrine and dogma as well as of the secular world, and are not content with what the Bible says about the human ...read more

    Heal The Wound, Leave The Scar

    Contributed by Shawn Andrews on Mar 14, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,139 views

    Big Idea: Forgiveness is healing the wound, even if it leaves a scar. Forgiving others means choosing not to be imprisoned by the actions of our offender. Jesus will heal our wound, but the scar remains to remind us of God’s work of grace in our lives.

It became debilitating. It was only when I became aware of what my wound was keeping me from, was I willing to do ...read more
