    Rolling Stones: Leverage Or Fear?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 29, 2003
    based on 54 ratings
     | 8,134 views

    The risen Christ rolls away the stones that hold us back: secrets we carry, fears and suspicions. He provides "leverage" to move these things out of the way.

    What giant stone stands in your way? What stops you from becoming what you want to become? You have dreams, hopes, goals. But something stops you. Not enough money? Not enough time? Maybe. But I would guess that some very large spiritual thing stands in your way. If you sift through all the ...read more

    I’m ready for Old Time Religion Pentecostal Revival where the hot wind of the Holy Spirit burns away the sin from God’s People.

    The Transforming Gospel

    Paul makes a special plea to his friend Philemon concerning his run-away slave but now a Christian, showing how the gospel transforms all relationships.

    THE TRANSFORMING GOSPEL Letter writing is almost a lost art. We’d rather pick up the phone or dash off an e-mail but I’m glad that Paul used pen and ink. Doubtless Paul, being a man of letters and bubbling over with ideas for the spread of the gospel, must have written many ...read more

    We think of the plan of salvation and the steps a man takes toward God. But there are also equally clear steps by which one may go away from God.

    BACKSLIDING MADE EASY Mark 14:26-31; 66-72 INTRO: We think of the plan of salvation and the steps a man takes toward God. But there are also equally clear steps by which one may go away from God.

    The problem of hunger in our world is mostly a matter of people like the synagogue official who would turn away the blind and lame from the healing power of Jesus.

    October 26, 2009 Caritas in Veritate There are many meanings to what St. Paul calls “living by the flesh,” and some tie in most wonderfully with today’s Gospel and the Pope’s latest encyclical.

    When life gets too hard, instead of turning away from God, we should be reaching out for God’s hand that is reaching out for you.

I will worship toward Your holy temple, And praise Your name, For Your loving kindness and Your truth; For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.
