     | 2,764 views

    Paul and others included greetings in their letters. What's the significance of that and is that something I need to be focused on? Let's find out.

    GREETINGS! In my Church Leaders newsletter Thursday, they had an article about suicide prevention because it was world suicide prevention day.

    Inheritance Or Identity?

    Contributed by Jay Winters on Jul 7, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,796 views

    The parable of the Good Samaritan is a parable about identity couched in the lawyer's question about inheritance. Both are ours in Christ, but one is more important than the other.

    Inheritance or identity? The parable of the Good Samaritan is one of those passages that we could probably all recite from memory if we had to. We know what happens - a man is traveling along the road, he is ambushed, left for dead, and then two religious guys are too busy or otherwise concerned ...read more

    The Temptation To Be Perfect Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000
     | 4,911 views

    To be perfect as God is perfect, paradoxically, requires us to understand our own weaknesses and failures the way God does, and to love ourselves, despite those weaknesses and failures, the way God does.

    It may sound like a contradiction in terms to have a sermon on the temptation to be perfect. After all aren’t temptations about being imperfect. Doesn’t God want us to be perfect just as he’s perfect? But you know, there is such a thing as the temptation to be perfect. All of us are subject to it ...read more

    Being too comfortable can lock us into our ways. We hide behind the walls all to often. But there are others ways of being visable.

    What’s in Your Job description? Ephesians 4:11-16 There was once a farmer that frequently described his Christian faith by saying, “Well, I’m not making much progress, but I am well established!” One spring he was hauling some logs on a trailer. It has been especially ...read more
