    A few sweet words and a little bit of kindness can coax the hottest iron out of a fire. So it is with gratitude. Let’s examine this truth together in Lukes story of the ten lepers!

    Introduction I read recently of the story of the man who was betrayed by one he thought was his best friend. He went to him and asked, "How could you do this to me?

    We love power in all its forms. But amazingly, when God set out to save the world, He sent His Son in abject weakness. Could it be that this is His typical approach?

    Passage: Luke 2:1-7 Intro: We live in a world in love with power. 1. we cheer for the teams who can dominate their opponent. 2. we idolize the strong, the wealthy, the winners. 3. and frankly, we find ourselves a little conflicted with how God has chosen to manifest Himself to the sinful ...read more

    The way that David’s music ministered to Saul’s heart, music in worship can minister to ours. I include some suggestions for getting the most out of our music in worship.

    Introduction: A. Music is a powerful force – It gets our attention; it grabs our hearts; it transforms our souls. 1. This is the case because God has made it so. 2.

    "Merry Xmas!" Whenever you try to take "Christ" out of "Christmas" -- all you have left are "Xs". Excesses, Exhaustion, and Exchanges. But we were made for Expectation, Exaltation, and Examination.

    THE CHRISTMAS X-PERIENCE Text: John 1:1-14 (Suggested opening video: Christmas With A Capital C) There are many beautiful traditions and practices that have come to be associated with Christmas. And many of them aren’t what you would call “Christian traditions or practices” ...read more

     | 4,484 views

    All human life is important. God is displeased and angered when people take the lives of others out of anger and pride. This message looks at some of the root causes for murder in America and the world.

    Contributed by James Snyder on Feb 4, 2013
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,615 views

    How God has worked is how He is working and how He will work. To understand this is to begin to weed out of our life the merely good and concentrate on what God has for us.

According to him, the value of a book was in proportion to how much good material you are willing to cut from the manuscript.

     | 6,352 views

    God transforms us from the inside out. All Christ-followers are in the midst of this transformation, and at the same time, raw as we are, we reflect the Lord’s glory. Go figure.

    Nature is an incredible thing. Most of us have likely had our breath taken away at the site of something in creation.
