    Flesh And Spirit: Love And Joy Series

    We cannot manufacture joy by trying to be good, nor can we survive game-playing. Joy comes from knowing that without Christ we would not be good at all, but that in Him we are freed from guilt.

    The happiest people I know are not necessarily the most moral people I know. And the most unhappy people I know are among the most moral people I know. I’ll bet you didn’t follow that. Let me try again. The happiest people I know are not necessarily the most moral people I know. And the most ...read more

     | 13,675 views

    1. Jesus was telling us not to live for the kingdom of the world, but the Kingdom of God. 2. Jesus is saying that we play an important role in the life of the world as salt and light. 3. Jesus was talking about a new way of obedience.

    It is no accident that Jesus talked about us being salt and light immediately after he spoke the Beatitudes. It is in learning how to think as Jesus thought and live as he lived in submissions to God, that we become agents of healing and light in the world. It is when we live as people who do not ...read more

    Beholding And Reflecting Our God Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Dec 13, 2021
     | 4,031 views

    After Moses had beheld God's glory on Mt. Sinai, he could not help but reflect God's glory. That is God's will and plan for us. We are supposed to behold God, become like God, then reflect God to others.

    A. Our mission as children of God and disciples of Jesus Christ is to behold and to reflect our God. 1. Let’s begin with two illustrations – one about beholding and the other about reflecting. B. We are all familiar with the saying: “You Are What You Eat.” 1. I like this meme: “They say you are ...read more
