You Are Empowered By God

Many times our actions are all that stand in the way of answered prayers. Is God waiting on you?

Come to My House

Is our purpose in life large enough to overcome our trivial pursuits in life? Can we get beyond social position and possessions and poses to accept this astonishing offer to have Jesus come to our house and be a vital part of our family?

Extracting Our Ounce of Judgment

Society is not always kind to the gentle people. Sometimes the soft answer invites ridicule, but it is kindness that finally wins.

A Gathering Of Souls

Most people move through life reactively believing that their life is in the hands of their creator. Some that have moved on know that their life is in their own hands, and that the power to change is theirs--they are proactive in what they create. When a person takes control of their life, they own the power to change. When you put your life into the hands of God or another, you give up your power to change it, and you will be waiting for a very long time.

Come and Breakfast With Me

Jesus treated His beloved disciples as His friends. He did not demand that they come and serve Him, nor did He tell them to go off to the side and eat; instead, He served them and ate with them.

Servant of Servants

Our problem with Jesus is not whether He lived on this earth for history proves it; it's whether we choose to believe it.
