    What happens after we are saved? Sometimes we treat salvation like a car wash - God cleans us up and then tells us not to get dirty again. But is that really grace?

    I can’t lift very much - I don’t know how much I bench press - and even though I exercise fairly regularly, I don’t consider myself buff. But if I had a human exoskeleton I sure could be! This machine is designed to turn ordinary men into supermen - you wear it around you and is made of ...read more

    Paralysis By Analysis

    Contributed by Jack Warford on Apr 13, 2001
    based on 104 ratings
     | 4,625 views

    Many churches today have a paralysis brought on by analysis; they are so busy gathering and reporting numbers that their lambs and sheep are not being fed, and their flock is not being cared for. Resulting in spiritual paralysis.

    Why are we so fixated on counting numbers? Why do most pastors think of success as it relates to numbers? Nowhere in the Bible does Jesus tell us to count the sheep. He tells Peter if you love Me then you will feed my lambs, care for my sheep, and feed my sheep. Many churches today have a ...read more

    Some churches are so focused on overseas missions that they miss the mission field in their own backyard. Jesus said we’d be his witnesses at home as well as abroad.

    Missions in Our Backyard QUOTE: Oswald Smith "The light that shines farthest shines brightest near home" Churches so focused on overseas they neglected their own mission - declined and closed!

    When God Opens Hearts, And Opposition Comes Series

     | 6,507 views

    God directed Paul to Philippi to preach the gospel. Acts 16 reveals both the open hearted reception and the opposition he faced. We should expect the same when we share Christ today.

    When God opens hearts he comes into them to dwell. Acts 16 gives us the history of how the gospel was planted in Philippi, how God opened their hearts to hear and obey the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This lesson continues our introduction to the letter of Philippians. Let's read ...read more
