    The message is about our walk, our responsibility as followers of Jesus to tell His story. Jesus said the seed is the Word of God (Luke 8:11). It’s the only thing that has the power to change the human heart. quotes from "Who Broke My Church" Hunter

    Do You Really Know God?

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 8, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,500 views

    Many people in the world today know ABOUT God, but don't really KNOW Him personally. Most people when they say they know God, mean they've heard of Him and about Him. But don't really know Him. My question to you today is, "Do YOU REALLY know God?"

    We live in a self-important society. We take personality tests. We use social media to broadcast what is on our mind. We hear slogans that tell us we’re due something or we deserve a reward. But, in order to live in such a way that God is most glorified, we must pursue a greater knowledge of Him. ...read more

    A third perspective is what Jesus is saying about the sheep. That is, that left to their own devices, sheep will stray.

    Why do you suppose The Runaway Bunny is one of the most popular books for toddlers ever written? Because it reassures the child that whatever happens, she can’t get lost for good.

    Glory Of Christian Leadership

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 592 views

    Many people treated Jesus like a celebrity as they followed Him from place to place, listened to His teaching, observed His miracles, and sought healing from His touch. Yet Jesus was never self-important or aloof, but available to all.

    Opening illustration: In today’s celebrity-obsessed culture, it isn’t surprising that entrepreneurs are marketing “celebrities as products … allowing them to sell their personal time and attention.” Vauhini Vara’s article in The New Yorker noted that for $15,000, you can have a personal meeting ...read more

    Jesus Was Acquainted With Grief Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on May 7, 2024
     | 651 views

    Jesus Christ was acquainted with grief. Every day in Roman-occupied Judea there would have been executions, and crucifixions just as Jesus suffered. Grief would have been all around.

    In the last post, I concentrated on Jesus being a man of sorrows, so this post will concentrate on Jesus being acquainted with grief. First of all, as always, I check to see what the Old Testament Hebrew words are to make sure that I am interpreting the prophet's words correctly. In this verse, ...read more
