    Not Called To Just Cloister Or Cluster

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jul 5, 2022
     | 1,171 views

    We have been obsessed with ourselves too long and we wonder why the world is so dark.

    If the only ministry you do is in church, then you missed most of what ministry is about. True, we are to attend church consistently to learn how to do ministry and exhort one another. Still, our ministry is to be community and world focused. We come in to prepare and grow to go out. Indeed, ...read more

    God may not meet our expectations in every situation, but He ultimately fulfills our greatest hopes and is always present with us, even when He seems distant.

    Hey guys! Today, we're going to talk about something we all experience: disappointment. You know, those times when things don't go the way we want or expect them to. And sometimes, it feels like God isn't showing up when we need Him the most. But I want to share a story from the Bible that shows us ...read more

    Jesus takes our brokenness and makes us whole. He uses our failures and the brokenness of the world to restore and repair us, making us more beautiful and valuable.

    Hey guys, ever had a favorite toy or gadget that broke? You know, like when your phone screen cracks or your favorite game console stops working. It's a bummer, right?

    Be Careful What You Pray For, You Might Get It Series

    based on 34 ratings
     | 24,177 views

    There are only two motives for prayer: fear and hope. If you pray and live in fear, you will live a lie and deny God, and you will become destructive. But if you pray and live in fear, you will find satisfaction and will become a life-giver.

    God answers prayer. Let there be no doubt about that. God answers prayer. God responds to what His people ask. So it has often been said that you had better be careful what you pray for, because you just might get it! There is something awesome, something even dangerous about prayer. ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,133 views

    As Christians, we have to understand one simple thing: Every person on this earth has been placed here to do one thing and one thing only, and that is to glorify God.

    Title: Glorify His Name Scripture: John 13:31-35 Introduction: We said at the beginning, and throughout our study of the Gospel according to the Apostle John, that Jesus was on a time line. Seven times, He says “a time is coming.” John continually uses words such as, and the next day, or, two ...read more

    We are so busy. Are we too busy to pray? What do we pray for? Does AMEN mean we are disconnecting God and getting back to life -- or does it mean something else?

    There are 5 Presbyterian congregations in Iraq, and lately, I have been writing and receiving email from some of their pastors and elders. I told them about our 24 hour prayer vigil. They were very, very impressed. Looking back, I realize, I might have given them the wrong impression. I’m going ...read more

     | 27,835 views

    Would you like to be a successful Christian parent? Would you like to raise your children so that they’ll please God? Paul gives us powerful guidelines on how to make a difference in our child’s life.

    OPEN - I read a poem several years ago that went this way: If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it is yours... If it doesn’t, it never was. But, if it just sits in your living room, messes up your stuff, eats your food, takes your money, and doesn’t appear to realize that ...read more

    The Great Requirement

     | 5,701 views

    Now the two things which anger God the most is the worship of other gods by God’s people and injustice and our lack of response to it. Our Scripture today is about anger regarding injustice.

    The Great Requirement Nehemiah 5:1-13 If you want to learn what a person is really like, ask three questions: What makes them laugh? What makes them weep? What makes them angry? It’s the last of these questions which catch us off guard as Christians. One of the calls to the Christian life is to ...read more

    Jesus does some cleaning out of the temple to clear out the things that restricted worship of God.

    Spring Cleaning… John 2:13-19 It seems a little strange to me but, it appears to be something that many people have built into their DNA. Mostly women… When the first flowers start to bud out many households enter into spring cleaning mode. Personally, I and many, if not most, men don’t ...read more

    Why is it we are so addicted to the bad and so unable to change? And what can we do about it?

    “Between the Lines: Did I Do That?” Romans 7:14-25 “Did I do that?” I hope I’m not the only one who remembers Steve Erkel – that klutzy, nerdy yet wonderful and lovable television character. He was constantly doing things that resulted in creating messy or ...read more
