    This man is running around screaming with joy. You couldn’t stop but notice it. He was making such a hoopla you would have thought that he won a million dollars.

     | 3,978 views

    Ananias and Sapphira sold a piece of land and gave part of the money to the apostles. But there was something not quite right about this and it became clear very quickly. This is another outline from a mini-series on Acts I preached several years ago.

    Introduction: the early church faced a significant problem: taking care of new converts and their needs. The last verses of Acts 4 describe how people sold things they owned and gave the money to the apostles to help meet these needs. Barnabas, a Levite of Cyprus, even sold a piece of land and gave ...read more

    Beloved, have you ever looked in the mirror and the reflection told you what you didn’t want to see? You know, you might be feeling one way but when you look at yourself in the mirror the reflection reproduces something totally different.

    You know, in the last 2 to 3 years, I noticed two pretty important ways the world has changed. Now frankly, I don’t know whether it’s because of global warming or the lack of gun control or the Obama administration. All I know is that these two issues, at least to me, are far more important than ...read more
