    Follow Jesus--Not Your Feelings Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2006
    based on 10 ratings
     | 13,430 views

    Are you a little proud you attend church? Do you feel a little superior to those folks who sleep in or are out on the lake? There is no room for spiritual pride in grace, because in grace, it’s all about boasting in God not in our goodness.

    INTRODUCTION If you were around in 1975 you might remember the one-hit wonder “Feelings,” by Morris Albert “Feelings, nothing more than feelings; / Trying to forget my feelings of love; / Feelings, whoa, whoa, whoa feelings…” This is the sappiest song I’ve ever heard.

    Are You Loving Others Or Judging Others? Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Oct 19, 2006
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,182 views

    If we think we can live the Christian life by following rules and forgetting about loving others, we have missed the point. The Christian life can be summed up in one word: love.

    “Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ” (Col. 2:16-17). Background I. God does not want you to ...read more

    How are we, as Christians, to deal with the physical, emotional, and spiritual drains in our lives? How are we, as people of God, to deal with these issues? Paul tells the Colossians and he tells us that Jesus can fill us in the midst of all the drains
