    When we look upon the goodness and wisdom that Christ offers we should desire to be like Him and not just give Him lip service like the Queen of Sheba.

    A sermon about getting to busy looking for a sign from God that we miss the truth.

    Are You Looking For a Sign? Matthew 12:38-45 So many people are looking for signs. Lord give me a sign to show what you want me to do. Lord give me a sign to show me what you want me to do.

    When God Calls, Which Way Do You Run?

     | 6,395 views

    Jonah’s experience helps us understand God’s grace again. Hiding and running from God never pays, coming home to his will is the only way.

    When God calls, which way do you run? Jonah is a classic Bible story. Someone has pointed out that in the first chapter Jonah ran away from God. In the second chapter, he ran back to God. In the third chapter he ran with God, but in the fourth chapter he ran ahead of God. Jonah was a ...read more

    The Folly Of Following Signs

    based on 125 ratings
     | 19,047 views

    The danger of looking to external “signs” to guide you into God’s will. So how do you know if God is leading you?

    I don’t recommend very many movies – and I especially don’t recommend the movie I’m about to mention. But sometimes lines spoken in movies jump off the screen and into the dictionary and become part of the way we think and speak – and inform us about ourselves and our attitudes. In the movie ...read more

    It’s Time To Stop Pretending Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,538 views

    We are more like the Pharisees than we would like to admit - hiding our true selves from others and from God and blaming external things for the consequences of our own behavior. But Jesus offers real hope if we will open up to Him in relationship.

    The act of projection involves blaming things outside of yourself for your problems. The act of denying personal responsibility means it is the fault of your spouse, your boss, the government, the weather, or even that tool you were using. The Pharisees were masters at projection, and as it turns ...read more

    The nature and importance of the sign of Jonah and its meaning to the modern Christian.

    The Sign of Jonah Matt. 12:38-40 INTRO.: The Jewish leaders confronted Jesus demanding “a sign.” by this they meant some miraculous event attesting to the truth of what He said. This is not the first such request. Jesus had already performed miracles. He had, for instance, healed a man’s withered ...read more

    Authentic inculturation means that we Christianize the culture in which we live.

    18 July 2011 The Spirit of the Liturgy I recall from grade school days when some particularly hard-hearted kid wanted to get under my skin, he would say “Prove it!” to anything I might advance. We see this in the Hebrews fleeing from Egypt. They trusted Moses until they got into a ...read more

    Jack, a friend of mine, is unable to walk. When I spoke to him about God, he said "If God was real He wouldn’t leave me like this. I don’t deserve this. Where’s the proof that God exists?"

    Part 12 - Matthew 12:22-42 - THE CANVAS OF MY HEART Yesterday I was reading about a man called Han van Meegeren who was a Dutch artist and an extremely talented ART FORGER.
