  • All Things

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 14, 2010

    Final message on the church's vision statement. Christ's lordship over all things means that there is nothing worthy that we can leave out of our work, but it will succeed if we are focused on Him and not on our own success.

    At the very center of the Christian faith there is Christ. That sounds self-evident: it seems obvious. But we keep forgetting it. We keep on trying to live without a center. Think about a wheel which has no hub; if you try to roll that wheel, its spokes will collapse. And no church will hold its ...read more

     | 3,162 views

    The tension between the subjection of the world to Christ and the world in which we currently live

    One of the great concerns in our Christian state is when Scripture speaks in a way that describes a world we don’t quite live in yet. The author to the Hebrews today begins talking partly about a current circumstance, but he also talks about what he calls a world to come. And for us many times we ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,834 views

    Christians live within the tension of being in a fallen, broken world, while trying not to be influenced by it.

As Christians, living between two kingdoms is what we do every single day, regardless of where we are. We face the challenge of living as Christ’s followers in an unholy, fallen ...read more
