    based on 4 ratings
     | 658 views

    Being blessed is not about having a perfect life or material possessions. It’s about understanding our origin and purpose. It's about being seen by God and having our stories rewritten by Him.

    You know how people post #blessed on their Instagram pics? Like when they're sipping a fancy coffee or chilling on a beach vacation? Well, today we're gonna talk about what it really means to be blessed. Let's start with a little object lesson. I want you to think about a loaf of bread. It's pretty ...read more

    Why Seek The Living Among The Dead?

    That penetrating question of the angels to the women on resurrection morning leads to such great assurance that indeed we serve a risen Savior, that the grave is not our final destination and that we do find life when we look where it is found.

    Why Seek the Living Among the Dead? Luke 24:5 Scripture Reading: Luke 23:50 – 24:12 It was completely logical for the women to go to Jesus’ tomb early that Sunday morning. They went to do the final thing they could for him and it was reasonable they’d expect to find his body there. Where else ...read more

    Jacob's night with a stone for a pillow teaches us that God uses loneliness and isolation to speak to us in ways that would otherwise be missed.

    I have a very special pillowcase that might tempt you to make fun of me. It is my “Where’s Waldo” pillowcase. Actually, it belonged to one of our children, but I use it as my pillowcase when I go camping in the wilderness. My wilderness gear consists of leftovers from around ...read more

    We need to live our lives so that they please God… not living lives that simply please the people around us or even our leaders or our pastors! Our focus must be to please God, not man or ourselves.

     | 347 views

    How we see our lives, and how God sees them, are so very different. Today we compare this to two sides of a tapestry.

    God’s Weaving of Our Lives Isaiah 55:8,9 says: My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. That’s a good summary of what we see in our ...read more

     | 3,849 views

    Do you ever struggle to make sense of the things going in life? Why would God allow certain things to happen. The name "I AM" is one that helps us in the way we look at the things that we and others are going through in this life that might not make sense to us.

    Do you ever struggle to understand why God would allow certain things to happen? You turn on the TV, read the latest headlines, look at the world around you, or what is personally going on in your own life, and we struggle to make sense of things.
