    It’s proven that the majority of people who attend church come just for themselves, or for their children and grandchildren to interact. Historically people don’t come to church to watch others grow, or to be a blessing and to help people grow in their wa

    Fear can be a powerful motivating factor that can keep us from living out our Christian faith, life and responsibilities. Jesus assures us that we do not need to be afraid and releases us from fear’s bondage.

    Mary accepts her bearing the Son of God without fear

    “DO NOT BE AFRAID” This is the fourth Sunday of Advent, and we just heard a gospel reading foretelling the conception of Jesus – just two days before we celebrate His birth.

    The sorrow we experience as we witness the devolution of culture creates a longing for Heaven and for Christ.

    “I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, ...read more

    1 of 1. The prophet Isaiah noted an 'environment' in Israel, where an absence of God’s righteous people went unnoticed. The absence of God’s righteous people can go unnoticed by secular society. When/Why/How does an absence of God’s righteous go unnoticed?

    There's a difference between church people who are "hearers" and those who are "doers." Do you know the difference? And do you know how to tell which group you're in?

And Jesus has new hands. And Jesus has new feet.” When we became Christians, we became the eyes and ...read more

    Many Christians believe that in Matthew 5:39 Jesus is calling us to pacifism. If that was the case, he would be negating the Old Testament! Jesus does call us to nonresistance, but in certain situations only - as his examples show. He isn't pacifist and he doesn't call us to to pacifism.
