    Some people can make God look like He doesn’t know how to make up His mind! One day it is “God wants me to do this.” and the next day it was something totally different. What does Jesus say about all this?

    Matthew 5 – Part 18 – GOD TOLD ME TO DO IT! I SWEAR!

    It's interesting to me that Jesus called His disciples to leave the crowd and His disciples and they experience some spiritual warfare as they cross to the other side of the lake. Why would Jesus miss this opportunity, when He had a crowd gathered?

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - WHEN JESUS SKIPS OUT ON CHURCH, YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG! I remember as a young student Pastor being invited to a Church for afternoon tea. They said they wanted to pray for me. What I didn't realise is that they wanted to pray for me to be their Pastor. At the end ...read more
