    It’s amazing which lessons we learn from our parents and which ones we don’t, isn’t it? Considering that I quit making my bed every day the minute I moved out, my mother would be amazed to realize how many lessons I do remember.

    Winning The War... With Humility Series

    Contributed by Steven Buhr on Mar 27, 2008
    based on 16 ratings
     | 24,675 views

    Being a Christian is not a hat we wear, and then take off when it’s convenient or uncomfortable. It’s not a fake ID we show at the pearly gates of heaven or a ‘get out of hell free’ card. Being a Christian is a full-time, life time commitment to the King of kings and Lord of lords, Jesus Christ.

    James 4:1-10 – Winning the War, with Humility ‘Every baby starts life as a little savage. He is completely selfish and self-centered. He wants what he wants when he wants it — his bottle, his mother’s attention, his playmate’s toy, his uncle’s watch. Deny him these once, and he seethes with rage ...read more

    Pride is self-esteem, confidence, and satisfaction in self. Some people try to run their own lives without God, as if they do not need Him, because they put themselves first.

    Obadiah is the shortest book of the Bible. It is titled “The Vision of Obadiah” as it prophesies the judgment to fall on the nation of Edom.

    We live in a status-seeking world. But when Jesus comes as a tiny infant in a humble set of circumstances, He shows us that the way to live is one of obedience and giving up control.

     | 6,806 views

    This is the 26th sermon in a series we're doing on the Gospel of John. In this sermon we look at the dividing line between Christians and the rest of the world, and how the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman are distinguished.

    Today, we're going to talk about going "all in" for Jesus. You know, like when you're playing a game and you give it everything you've got? That's what we're talking about, but with our relationship with Jesus. So, let's dive in! Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up ...read more
