Do you realize how little we deserve the cleansing which Christ offers in our lives? Does His love for you humble you and cause you to hate your sin? Are…

If you are a Christian tonight, you have a life that is “hidden with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:3). As we continually come to Christ, we are being built up…

The marks of the first Spirit-filled community are all concerned with the church’s relationships. The challenge for each of us this year is that we become more like these first Christians by; Submitting ourselves to the teaching and authority of God’s Word, Loving one another, even as our Lord has loved us (John 13:34)

God spoke through the prophet Jeremiah and said, “You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13). After writing about a…

In his Parable of the Sower, Jesus addressed some reasons as to why we do not finish: a. For some, it is affliction or persecution which drives them off course. b. For others, it is the distractions and cares of this world which cause them to abandon the race. Only by putting things in proper perspective can we finish our course (Acts 20:24)

When we walk with Jesus (the Light) . . . a. We are delivered from fear. b. Liberated from doubt. c. Possess a joy which no one may take from us. Jesus’ challenge is that we “believe in the Light” (Him).

Over the last few days leading up to yesterday, Christmas Day, and perhaps even in the days to come, many of us have received or will receive gifts. They come…

Are you a person who is sick and tired of sin in your life — the lies, the despair, the guilt and hurt? Do you want to live a transformed life with a renewed mind and true purpose? Perhaps you are a Christian, but you have been living a lie, and you are tired of it. You want to be real. You want to live a zealous, productive and blessed life as someone who has been saved from his or her sins. What should you do?

Each of us makes a choice to either to fulfill God’s purpose in our lives or to completely abandon that purpose and plot our own course.

Heaven will surely be worth all the affliction and hardship you experience here while serving our Lord. If you haven’t submitted your life to Him in obedient faith, why not do so today?

You and I as God’s people do not need a proclamation or a special day in the year in which to express our gratitude to the One who is sovereign over all creation. It is something which we can and should do every day of the year.

In these difficult times, if you haven’t already done so, I want to encourage each of you to pick up God’s Word. Read it. Meditate upon it. Let God speak to your heart and your soul. I promise you, it will make a difference in your life. Time spent in His Word on a regular basis will bring more benefit to your life than we can possibly fathom.

Ignorance and inexperience with grief, especially that which accompanies the loss of a mate, makes it difficult (if not impossible) to minister effectively to those trying to live after loss.…

But, who are we? Paul says we are “earthen vessels”(NKJV, NASB95), “jars of clay” (ESV, NIV84). Long ago, Job asked God, “Remember now, that You have made me as clay” (Job 10:9). You and I carry about in our frail mortal bodies a light derived from the central source of light, Jesus Christ. Paul said that it is in order “to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us” (2 Corinthians 4:7b, ESV)

People are hurting. In John 13:34-35 we are called to love one another. Love is the reason we are here. Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, that…

God has given us the opportunity to make a difference in our community. That difference starts with who we are — how do we treat one another. In 1 Thessalonians…

Today, if you and I are to have any part in Him, we must allow Him to wash us in the waters of baptism, even as the early Christians did.

I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all, in view of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now. For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:3–6
