    Kindness is a "fruit" of the Spirit. Both salvation and sanctification (walking in holiness) doing good deeds are both obtained by faith and the work of the Holy Spirit. Illustration from Max Lucado on Kindness

    Breath Of God Or Copd?

     | 4,046 views

    I believe the modern church is suffering from spiritual COPD; we’re not getting the Breath of life from God often enough to animate us, transform us, heal & renew us, and help us overcome. God's Breath is our source of life, gives us purpose, & power.

    BREATH OF GOD OR COPD? Job 33:4 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man wanted to be a salesman, but he stuttered very badly. Then he saw an ad for a job as a Bible salesman for the Bible Society, and he decided to apply. 2. At the interview, they heard him stutter and said, "We're sorry, ...read more

    The call of Jesus to every person in every generation is profoundly simple and eternally life-changing: “Follow Me.” Two words that rescue sinners. Two words that redirect destinies. Two words that produce disciples. Two words that define Christianity.

     | 194 views

    This sermon contrasts the world's frantic and exhausting path to strength with God's divine invitation to find salvation and power through the "unforced rhythm" of returning to and resting in Him.

    Introduction: The Tyranny of the Urgent I want you to picture a scene. It's late at night. A student sits hunched over a desk, surrounded by textbooks and empty coffee mugs.

    Appointed Once To Die

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 3, 2025
     | 582 views

    There’s an alternative explanation of death being taught in the US culture, very subtly. It has been adopted by 43% of Americans and even one-quarter (25%) of U.S. Christians. Hebrews 9:27 is the antidote for this serious sickness!
