    Some keep God at a convenient distance. Calling on Him only when they want something in return or they need Him to pull them out of trouble. Israel was good at this and it’s the reason why they and we too find ourselves in the mess we’re in!

    Introduction While visitng one of our Church members, in the middle of our conversation their phone rang and I watched as they glanced over and checked their caller ID & they immediately said to me, "It’s O.K.

    Knowing God's Will Part 2 Series

     | 4,354 views

    There are lots and lots of books out there that can assist you in discovering God’s will for your life but I propose that the answer to that question is quite easily found in the bible.

    We have been talking about knowing God’s will. I believe that people make more of this issue than is necessary. People agonize over what God’s will is for their lives and often become stalled in their growth. I think the focus is wrong. They struggle with trying to discern what His ...read more

    We all know pain is going to be a part of life. The main question is "why". If I understand God’s purpose for pain I can deal with it.

     | 4,315 views

    The rich young ruler’s question was off-base. It assumes that we can do one overriding deed to win God over; it is possessive; and it is self-centered.

    I am not very good at giving gifts. I just have a hard time, when Christmas and birthdays and anniversaries roll around, a hard time giving the right gifts. It’s not that the folks I want to give to are picky or unworthy; it’s just that I can’t seem to figure out what they want and get it. For ...read more

    If we feel like the Author in Psalm 73:1-16 we should ask ourselves the question, do I have a shaken faith or sure faith?

    “You have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. Do you suppose, O man—you who ...read more

    The verse started with response Jesus made to the earlier question asked by his Disciples “Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming? And of the end of the world?”

    Jesus started His response with saying “Take heed” the need to taking heed cannot be overemphasized due to the fact that that time shall be filled with sweet error and deceits. 2 Pet 2:1-2; 2 Cor 11:13-15; 2 Thess 2:3. Jesus went on to authoritatively answer the first question “when shall these ...read more
