    Jesus teaches us three things about humility: it starts at the bottom, it grows out of gratitude, and it is an act of faith.

    “Oh, it’s hard to be humble . . .!” Have you ever heard that little tune, “Oh, it’s hard to be humble, when you’re prefect in every way?” It’s a little tune I remember from growing up. And I read a couple of stories this week that sort of illustrate this song very well. The first was about Henry ...read more

    Hosea charged Israel with being “a cake not turned” or “half-baked". They were half-hearted towards God. Like Israel, many of today’s professed believers have followed the same pattern of incomplete discipleship.

    1 Half-Baked Hosea 7:8-10 “Ephraim is a cake not turned.” — Hosea 7:8 Hosea, a prophet to the house of Israel during the reign of Jeroboam II, used several colorful admonitions to bring to Israel’s attention the state of their relationship with God. In his comparison he ...read more

    How do we feel when we are alone and discouraged? When we are beat up by the world wondering where God is in our lives? God is right beside us.

    Last week we read a portion of the account of Jacob’s life. We read how Jacob had fallen in love with Rachael, but he was tricked into marrying Rachael’s sister Leah first.

    Think about how we would describe Jesus, based on what we know. All we have are snapshots of His life, not a full biography. Who is Jesus Christ?

    The Bible is filled with accounts regarding how God used people in powerful ways. Both the known and the not-so-much known. Jesus has touched millions of people in a very humble way.

    For a few minutes this morning, I would like you to think about your name. Is it a good name? If you could have named yourself, would you have chosen the same name? There is a meaning behind every name, what is the meaning behind yours? My name means, “strong, a powerful ruler.” ...read more
