    We live in a very proud and egotistical generation. It is now considered acceptable and even normal for people to promote themselves, to praise themselves, and to put themselves first. Pride is considered a virtue by many. Humility, on the other hand, is considered a weakness. Everyone, it ...read more

    True acceptance with God comes not through self-righteousness or comparison, but through humble confession and receiving His mercy offered in Jesus Christ.

    Some stories slip into the room and sit right beside us. This is one of them. It whispers to the weary, “You can put down the mask,” and it nudges the proud, “You can put down the measuring stick.” Picture it: two people walk into God’s house—one with a polished prayer and a proud posture, the ...read more

    David gives us an example of one who fortifies his own self in the midst of life's crushing places.

    Jesus said his purpose was to give us "a rich and satisfying life." But sometimes it seems our life is a lot less than satisfying. Did we miss something in what He said?

    Last week we talked about our dependence on God as He is the One with our future in his hands. We made a Declaration of Dependence on him that read; “We hold this truth to be self-evident, that all men are created equal in sin, that through grace, they have been endowed by ...read more

    Get Off Of My Porch! Isaiah 5:20-25 20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! 21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and ...read more

    Modesty is a way of thinking more than a way of dressing: a way of thinking about one’s identity, one’s loyalties, and one’s love for God and others.

    We may think that expressing gratitude is easy. But think again. It might turn out to be a difficult task. And there is a reason for that. And there is a solution for that. Let us look at the solution.

    Gratitude in Action: Catching People do the Right Things!! One of our (Leslie and I) constant prayers is to enable us to bring up Arvi and Aarav (our grand children) in the fear and knowledge of God.

    Angels sometimes come in the guise of needy persons to test our compassion, greed, selfishness, and obedience to help the poor. We should be diligent to minister to those less fortunate: they might even be angels.

    ENTERTAINING ANGELS Heb. 13:2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: AN EMAIL FROM GOD 1. One day God was looking down at Earth and saw all of the evil that was going on.
