    In a society where marriage is under attack The Bible offers an answer that teaches us what God’s Best is for a relationship between a man and a woman.

    Reviewing A Few Foundational Truths Predatory relationships do not work. We live in a society that teaches us that we need to go after what we want. Pursue the thing that we think will fill us.

    Forgive? Who Me? Matthew 18:21-35 I remember this story about a famous person in American history, and for the life of me, I can’t remember who it was. Anyway, this person was asked one Sunday afternoon about the worship service he attended that morning. “What did the preacher preach about?” ...read more

    "Joy Stealers"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Mar 23, 2003
    based on 161 ratings
     | 14,366 views

    Although Paul was in prison, he remained "joyful." Paul warns us of five different "joy stealers" and offers ways in which to avoid them.

    “JOY STEALERS” Phil. 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say, rejoice.” It is as much a command to "rejoice always," as it is to "not steal." An unhappy Christian is very unchristlike. Remember that the "Joy of the Lord is our strength." Today we will discuss five things that will ...read more
