    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 27, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,372 views

    In today's politically correct world it seems more and more Christians are swallowing some pretty bad stuff in order to 'get along.' The culture pushes back to get us to conform to the values of our culture. Paul comes against that and says you should thi

The Corinthians were very much in the middle of a culture that valued philosophy and discussion as a way to arrive at truth. Paul's time before the Areopagus in Acts 17 was like that, ...read more

     | 6,928 views

    In most of our experiences, we find that it does not pay to be truthful and we end up not liking and not trusting the truth. We need to learn to love the truth, learn the truth and live the truth. We are most like our Lord when we are truthful.

    Show video clip: Heart2Heart [Take A Look At Me] People hide their true selves. It's been said that honesty is the best policy. • It sounds like the simplest thing in the world; but being truly honest – with God, with others and even with ourselves - is a real challenge. In the ...read more

    John the Baptist is a great model of Christian ministry - he's willing to direct people away from himself to Jesus. he wants the glory to go to Jesus not himself and points others to Jesus even at his own cost.
