Removing The Filters Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 13, 2008

Often times where someone comes from or how they sound alters how we hear them. This was the case for those hearing Jesus. But if you really listen to his words they do deeper than you can image.

You’ve heard the ad "People judge you by the words you use. To make a powerful impression you need a powerful vocabulary. You need Verbal Advantage." Though this is true I think we also judge people by how they say words and where they come from. We hear an accent in someone and we think "Deep ...read more

The Insignificant Servant Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 14, 2009

God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. He orchestras divine appointments to accomplish His will. We are called to trust and obey Him. Be amazed at what God can do with our willingness to obey.

The obedience of one man changes everything. And he is almost an insignificant man. • In the middle of a very dramatic, miraculous story of change, a quite unknown man appears. • It’s easy to miss him, and even if you’ve heard the story of Paul on the road to Damascus many times before, it’s ...read more

Going For Life Change

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 13, 2013

The Pharisees did not experience life change because they had a different belief. Don't replace the relationship with a religion. Don't make the outward more important than the inward.
