    Often we make a division that somethings are sacred and some things not. Thsi sermon highlights that everything has been given to us to use for God’s purposes, of loving Him and loving others.

    How we see things affects how we relate to them. Some years a go a man who works in the area of caring for the homeless was asked by a journalist, “how come you seem to have so much respect for them” “no matter what mood they are in, or how they are acting you show them more love than anyone else ...read more

    Because of my identification with Christ in His death and resurrection, I can see myself differently - from a new perspective.

    In our passage for today, we find Paul emphasizing God’s GRACE. He mentions God’s GRACE in verse 5, verse 7, and verse 8. My favorite definition of GRACE is God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense - all that God can now provide for us because of the payment Christ made for ...read more

    God has a specific purpose for your life. It is that you come to know Him intimately and enjoy His presence in a relationship that is deeply personal and satisfying. This glorifies Him when you know Him in such a way!

    God’s Purpose for my Life (Gaining an Eternal Perspective) Col. 1:15-16 (NIV) The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.

    According to one researcher, one of the characteristics of a strong family is "appreciation" or thankfulness for others in my family. Why do we find this so hard to do, and how do we train ourselves to be appreciative?

    OPEN: Back in the 70’s, a woman wrote an article I found interesting. She said that her cousin had invited them to “Come for a thanksgiving dinner on Saturday, March 20th.” She wrote: “She was not celebrating an early Thanksgiving.

    Is your life a temporary distraction, or a preparation for the long term? Are you enjoying life while preparing for eternity, or is your focus solely the fleeting moments of this life?

    Why Waste Your Life? (Psalm 49) 1. Psalm 49 is categorized as a Wisdom Psalm, and it deals with the wisdom of living with a view toward eternity; none of us know when death may catch up to us. 2.

    Easter Makes A Difference

    Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Apr 18, 2009

     | 6,637 views

    Easter 2: Easter makes a difference. It changes cold, hard, self-centered people into a community that cares for one another. It gives boldness to weak hearts. It gives hope to suffering spirits. It provides a perspective.

    Christ is Risen! He is risen, indeed – Alleluia! Life in the time of Jesus was hard – maybe even mean. There are plenty of examples of this. Justice was often quick and oftentimes harsh. Look at what happened to Jesus! He was celebrating Passover with his disciples on Thursday night, and by ...read more

    What God Is Looking For…

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on May 7, 2009

    After seeing the disciples of Jesus hiding in the upper room it is hard to imagine that they had any vision of their own. That is why it is important to understand how God sees things and what he is watching for.

    Last week we looked at the slowness of Easter’s arrival for the disciples. They were locked away in a room. They were full of fear and doubts. Jesus appears, it would be easy to claim that that fixed everything for the disciples. But it did not; we know that if we read through the different ...read more
