    A unique take on what it means to be "Perfect"

    Donut Theology Matthew 5:38-5:48 In the last sentence of our passage today, Jesus says something that is very confusing… "Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect." Be Perfect! Doesn’t that make you scratch your head? How can we possibly be “PERFECT”? Or ...read more

    Is It Really Legalism?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 31, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,783 views

    In many modern churches, legalism is no more than acknowledging that the Lord has given to His Church a body of legislation that He expects to be taught and obeyed.

    During my decades of Christian ministry, the terms “legalism” and “legalist” have progressively been bandied-about within modern churches and their preachers/pastors. These terms have, primarily, been used to describe and condemn those Christians and churches that believe that there is more to ...read more

    The Branch Of Motherhood

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 3, 2021
     | 3,516 views

    How can we relate Mother’s Day to today’s text, John 15:1 – 8? We can relate Motherhood to today’s text by thinking of Motherhood as a branch on the Vine that Jesus is talking about.

    THE BRANCH OF MOTHERHOOD Text: John 15:1-8 John 15:1-8  "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower.  (2)  He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit. Every branch that bears fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit.  (3)  You have already been ...read more
