    Elevate To The Next Level: "Living In Thankfulness”

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Nov 16, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 624 views

    As I was going through this study on how to live thankfully, I realized that living thankfully elevates our relationship with God and with others. It takes it to the next level. In other words, as disciples of Jesus Christ, this is next-level stuff.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 44,505 views

    Jesus has given us, the body of Christ, the power and authority to act on his behalf. Legally, He has given us His "Power of Attorney." We can legally function in this world just as He functioned when He was here!

    Turn with me to Matthew 28. We’re going to read verses 18, 19 and 20. (18) And Jesus came and spake unto them (the disciples) saying, All power (this is the Greek word exousia and it means “authority”) is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Because all authority is given unto me in heaven and ...read more

    The Ascension Ends The Momentous Easter Period – Explaining The Ascension Series

     | 936 views

    40 days had passed after the Resurrection and Jesus had been teaching His disciples. Now it was time to depart this scene in the Ascension. We are looking at various aspects of the Ascension and His coming again. It was an interesting time.

THE INTRODUCTION FOR OUR MESSAGE TODAY ON THE ASCENSION The days after the Lord’s resurrection were understandably happy ones for the disciples, probably tinged with uncertainty. They were not sure what was ahead. ...read more

    How are we to love one another? How do we overcome the things that divide and destroy in the body of Christ? Jesus answered these questions powerfully when He washed the feet of His disciples in John 13.

    Main Idea: Show Christ’s great love by humbly serving each other This past month our little Wallace family of 5 had one of the most joyful and yet challenging experiences we have ever had.

    Before Jesus returned to heaven he gave His disciples everything they would need to start the fire that would "burn into" the church, but what does that mean for us today?

    Man has tried to discount the cost of being a true follower of Jesus Christ. Being a disciple costs something of us - we must be willing to sell all to follow Him.

    Introduction Since the very beginning of time, man has responded to the Lord in many ways. In the Garden, Adam and Eve tried to redefine what our responsibility to a Holy God looks like. Then came men like: Cain, Jonah, Saul, Judas and others who continued this attitude of mediocrity and ...read more
