1-13-19 Change Your Mind

According to Romans 12, transformation comes through the renewing of the mind. This takes place as we spend time in God's Word, learning to think as He thinks, and then agreeing with what He says about things. Transformation requires effort. Conformity, on the other hand, just happens.

 

 

12-23-18 Prince of Peace

If Jesus came to bring peace on earth, then something must have gone awry. While it's true that there's much room for improvement in the 'peace' arena, that doesn't change the truth that Jesus is the Prince of peace!

12-16-18 The Santa Claus 2

Not only is this a good movie, it packs some pretty powerful truths. 'Believing' makes all the difference!

12-9-18 The Greatest Gift of All

Receiving gifts is something most people enjoy. It says you're important, and it has value and purpose. And not only is it a joy to receive a gift, it's also a blessing to be the one who gives the gift. And then there's the wrapping of the gift . . . 

12-2-18 The Purpose of Christmas

We've all heard it - Jesus is the reason for the season! Sure, Christmas is about the birth of Jesus, but what else? 

11-25-18 Gratitude Thieves

Gratitude is a great quality and an area in which we should make great efforts. This is especially important as we move from the Thanksgiving season into the get-more-stuff season. Be careful of the thieves that will attempt to take it from you.

Compassion - a great quality that makes the world a better place. We could use more of it. The good Samaritan in Luke chapter 10 had it. The priest and the Levite did not. Why not?

11-11-18 As You Journey

You don't have to stop everything you're doing in order to do something big for God. Some of your greatest opportunities to do "God-things" will be unplanned. They will come your way as you go through your day. You do for God as you live your life. So, be ready!

11-4-18 Put the Ball in Play

In baseball, the team with the most hits doesn't necessarily win the game. It's all about the number of runs scored. A player has to get home. The Great Commission is about helping people get home. Our words, our deeds, our dollars . . . help move people closer to home.

10-28-18 Enjoy Life, Share Life

Paul told Timothy that God has given us richly all things for our enjoyment. So, our blessings come from the Lord, and He wants us to enjoy them, right? At the same time, we are to be mindful of the poor and those who are hurting. How do we continue to enjoy our blessings while knowing that so many struggle just to get by?
