30 Pieces Of Silver - A Tale Of 2 Shepherds Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000

The failure of the leaders God has placed over his people will result in the nation suffering as well as the leaders being judged.

If you were here last week you may remember that ch 10 of Zechariah talks about God the Shepherd, who promises to care for his flock. The reason he has to do that himself is because the leaders of Israel have failed. Well, Zechariah continues that theme in ch11 as he talks about this failure of ...read more

When Jesus Calls My Name

Contributed by Pat Damiani on Apr 21, 2006

When Jesus called Mary’s name that first Easter morning, it made a tremendous impact on her life. Jesus still calls our name and it ought to impact our lives in a similar way.

Sometimes that is done in a very calm, gentle, loving ...read more

Asking Both Kings For The Wall

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 15, 2010

For every significant task, there is the "sit-down" approach and the "rise-up" approach. We need both to sit down and pray and then to rise up and do, but even then by involving the resources of others. Lone wolves are not appropriate.

When a big challenge faces you, essentially there are only two things you can do about it: You can rise to the challenge. Or you can sit down and ignore it. When there is a big task to be done, I am saying, there are two entirely different ways to approach it. There is the rise up approach and ...read more

Whose House Is It?

Contributed by Herman E. Wesley Iii on Nov 29, 2008
