A Lesson in Listening
Luke 6:46-49
Early in life, I learned to listen to the Lord, and this most important lesson is the foundation of my confidence in God. Moreover, because I pay attention to the Father, He has given me courage in my convictions, strength in times of trouble, and unspeakable joy.
I opened my spiritual ears [...]

Created for Eternity
Many people live their entire lives not really understanding why they were put on earth.  What a tragedy and grave state of existence.  It’s even possible to be successful, happy and popular but miss the point of living.
The moment we become the center of life is the moment we miss the true meaning [...]

You were Custom Made
There’s nothing quite like having a custom-made shirt.  On one shirt that I had custom made – cut especially for me – I even had my initials embroidered on the cuff.  When you get something custom-made, it is fitted to your uniqueness, crafted with you in mind, and you are proud of [...]

All for God’s Glory
First Corinthians 10:31 tells us that even our eating and drinking should be done to the glory of God.

One mistake can change the course of our lives.  One bad decision can cost us years.  In Moses’ case, the mistake was murder.  In a fit of anger, he killed an Egyptian and then fled for his life.  He went from living as a prince of Egypt to growing old with [...]

Transforming Our Culture
When  Jesus Christ returns, we will no longer need to worry about transforming our  culture because He will set up His Kingdom rule. But until that time, we need  to reach the world for Him and for our children, grandchildren and  great-grandchildren.
What  is the role of Christians in our society? Jeremiah 29:4-11 illustrates [...]

Don’t Depend on Pharaoh
Believe it or not, God’s strategy to transform society includes the development of economic stability.  What does economics have to do with transforming a culture?
In Deuteronomy 28:12, God told Israel that if they would obey Him, they would be a lender to other nations and never a borrower. When God’s people disobeyed, [...]

Shine Your Light in the Darkness
Some Christians get nervous about discussions on the Christians’ responsibility to the culture. A major concern is that the Gospel will be obscured in favor of social concerns.  Let me reassure your, when it comes to the lost, evangelism must come first. We must win people to Christ.
Without Christ, it [...]

Perfected by the Spirit
In football, coaches are always concerned about turnovers. With each fumble or interception, the team goes from playing in the offensive mode to the defensive mode. Unfortunately, many Christians are playing in the spiritual defensive.  Although they may have a clear profession of faith, they are no longer progressing but regressing.
