    An interesting teaching on how we as disciples should view and utilize the money systems of this world.

    Last week, we were going through the parable of the prodigal son—prodigal meaning somebody who squanders resources.

    The One power that can free you from your sinful nature is not involved in your problems, because, you haven't decided to make Him your Savior. You are not designed for shame or regret. You are designed for power and a purpose.

    The word 'slave' is terrible word with a horrible meaning. Today we don't use the word slavery as much as we use the word trafficking. But, it's the same thing. According to the UN 2.5 million human beings are bought and sold as property all over world. According to this same report 1.2 million ...read more

    People sometimes seek to frighten us with fear to deter us from our purpose. But Jesus didn’t let the Pharisees’ false warning deter him from his hour. How about you? Are you trusting in the Lord and his purpose for you, or are you running away in fear all tied up in knots with concerns?

    Non-denominationalism only divided us more then we ever were before. If satan's kingdom cannot stand if divided against itself how can the House of God stand when we are so divided? We say we are one Body, but we look like a body hit by an explosion.

    Mark 3:24  And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.  25  And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.  1 Corinthians 12:12  For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, ...read more

    Coins are made from precious metals and bare the image of authority. We are precious creations of God that bare His image. How should we be spent as Gods currency?

    Spent for God This passage remains one of my all time favorites. I love it because Jesus took a simple thing like a coin and crushed his enemies who were trying to trap him. It is just beautiful in its power and simplicity. It is pure Jesus. Interesting Things about Coins. Coins represent a ...read more

     | 5,070 views

    A properly functioning eldership provides plurality in leadership, unity of purpose and a system of checks & balances. Biblical eldership is kingdom government & ultimately it’s about understanding & becoming the person God wants each of us to be.

    Biblical Eldership: The Government of God Intro.: It’s not always easy to be objective about the structure and government of the New Testament Church. We are influenced by the teaching we’ve had. So it’s often difficult to approach the subject with an open mind. But, we need to seriously examine ...read more
