    based on 14 ratings
     | 11,592 views

    When one person comes to faith in Jesus there is rejoicing in heaven. Who are sinners and who are the righteous are described in this message.

    “The Joy of Finding What Was Lost” Luke 15 The primary thrust of Jesus’ mission on earth was finding lost people. Jesus said: “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.” (Luke 19:10) Jesus was not talking about finding people who were lost as they were traveling from one city to ...read more

    We all want to see the great commission (Matt 28:18-20) of our Lord fulfilled but there is some disagreement about the best ways to see it completed. More than two-thirds of the mission force around the world has been and is currently comprised of women.

    How to Encourage Women’s Involvement in Missions – Acts 18:26 “Apollos began to speak freely (fearlessly and boldly) in the synagogue; but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him with them in their home and expounded to him the way of God more definitely and accurately.” (Acts 18:26) ...read more

     | 3,030 views

    Is it possible to really feel another person’s pain? When are we willing to allow our selves to feel others pain. How did Jesus demonstrate the feeling of pain?

    Other People’s Pain My mother and father both said it. I never believed it and I think I told them so. They would always say it just before “IT” happened…. They would say “this is going to hurt me a lot more that it is going to hurt you!” Has anyone said that to you? Just as they told ...read more

     | 14,716 views

    God is just like any parent; his heart breaks when his children rebel. These are the images of his hurt and what he planned to do about it.

    REFLECTING IMAGES OF REBELLION Someone has defined rebellion this way: “Reserving for myself the right to make the final decision.” Are you a rebel? How many of us think that it’s okay to go 110 km/h on the highway? As the pirates like to say, “It’s not a rule per se; it’s more like a ...read more

    In John 3:16, what kind of a world is Jesus talking about that needs saving?

    Love the World John 3:16-21 John 3:16 rings out loud and clear, “God so loved the world…” As I have traveled to some of our Free Methodist mission work I have witnessed the suffering of different people.

    Introduction I profess that I DO NOT like to watch the TV show, “Survivor”. I admit the concept, though with I’m sure some exaggerations, is pretty cool!
