     | 5,068 views

    We think of the new year as a new direction for our lives. God offers us new directions every day.

    1. The Bible has a great deal to say about “New” • New Covenant • New Heart • New Life • New Way • New Creation, to name a few 2. We tend to view the New Year as our big opportunity to restart. It can be true but actually each day is a new beginning. It really is the “first day of the rest of ...read more

    Through Ezekiel the Prophet, God provides a certain destiny and purpose of the modern Christian church and most of us will probably be surprised to hear it.

     | 2,932 views

    [Palm Sunday.] Today we wave the palms as we come to this table … a sign that our sin has come to end. Today we wave the palms and come to this table as we profess our desire to serve God wholeheartedly.

    Palm Sunday. A perfect example of the fact that Jesus’ Disciples and His followers get it … and don’t get it. They get that He is a king … a leader … a prophet and messiah sent by God … but … a king … a leader … a prophet … a messiah who rides into the Jerusalem on colt … not a great stallion or ...read more

     | 22,160 views

    Oftentimes, when we see the road ahead getting rough, we want to give up and quit. God never promised us a road of roses, but he did promise us a way to victory.

    When we are told that we must finish the race, we get excited and push harder. However, when the road gets rough, we lose encouragement. We see the potholes and the winding road and want to give up. I can relate. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 shouts it plain and clear. When we come to the knowledge of ...read more

FDR created the CCC and WPA which were pretty much working welfare programs. Indeed, it was a fulltime job and not easy labor. Lev_19:10 ...read more
