Freedom For The Captives Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015

Paul's whole plea to Philemon is to act the way the loving Father acted: to welcome home the beloved son; to restore him to fellowship with the family. There will be, and have been, occasions when we'll be called to respond to wrongdoers the same way.

There's something quite different about reading this letter compared with all Paul's other letters. In all the others, even those addressed to individuals, the focus is on the Church where they're ministering. But here there's a much more personal feel to the correspondence. You can feel the warmth ...read more

Have The Mind Of Christ Jesus

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 10, 2021

In Philippians 2 we find the great imperative command that we need to "have the mind of Christ Jesus." Is that possible? Can our minds be so transformed by the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit that we can actually have the mind of Christ Jesus within us?

Have the Mind of Christ Jesus Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.

Serving Like Jesus Series

Contributed by David Owens on Feb 8, 2016

In this first sermon, I establish that we must be conformed into the likeness of Jesus. Because He was a servant, we must also become servants. A resource I am basing the series on is Charles Swindoll's "Improving Your Serve."

One of God's major objectives for us is to be conformed into the image of His Son and one of the primary ways God wants us to conform to the likeness of Jesus is in our service. Jesus came to serve and to give and so we must also serve and give.

Only Two Masters Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on May 3, 2008

In our study today, Paul teaches us that there are only two masters in the spiritual world, and Christians are slaves--happy slaves--to obedience.

The Submissive Sovereign

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 27, 2018

While in the Upper Room, just hours prior to the Crucifixion, Jesus humbled Himself, assuming the position of a slave to wash the disciples' feet. Although He knew their hearts, He washed the feet of each one.
