The book of Hebrews is filled with instruction, guidance and raw faith. Although there is contention over who wrote the book of Hebrews, it is a springboard for the pursuit of living a Christian life. It is filled with wisdom and assurance teaching the nature of having a Christian attitude in all that we do. […]

If we are saved by grace, when why do we need to bother to work by doing good deeds and helping others. What’s in in for me? I already have heaven. What more do I need? As the song goes, “What’s love got to do with it?” WHY WORK? WHENCE COMETH MY WISDOM?

The story of Jonah can be both simple and complicated. While we often teach it to our children, we don’t often dig into the meat that is available for adult Christians. There are so many lessons to be found in this story of disobedience and redemption. The parallels for the path of Christianity are amazingly […]

Sometimes, God leads us to ask ourselves the hard questions, and sometimes our lack of faith does the same thing. Is what we believe to be true relevant in the chaotic world around us?

All too often we ask God to provide us with what we think we need to accomplish the task he has set before us without realizing that he has already equipped us with everything we need. We just need to accept that what he chosen to bless us with are the very things that are […]

The Journey of a Christian is constantly taking us forward. We can only grow closer to Christ if we are willing to change, to be constantly working to allow God to move our orbit closer.

We can be a stiff-necked people. Sometimes we simply do not like the way God answers our prayers or we become reluctant to choose to embrace the people and events he leads us to. The first step in handling this kind of reluctance is to acknowledge that it exists and then stepping forward with faith, […]

In this series we will talk about some of […]

God is always sending us messages. Messages of all kinds. Our problem is that we often close our ears and our minds when those messages come to us. They may come in the shape of words, opportunities, wisdom from the past, or even in the events around us. It is our responsibility to listen and […]

Christ never pushes us away. With every moment of every day he wants us to come closer. It is our own limitations, prejudices, fear, and lack of desire that push back, telling him that we are not wanting a closer relationship. But the closer we come to Christ, the more we are able to reflect […]

Philemon is one of the shortest books in the Bible. It is a thank-you letter written by Paul to Philemon regarding Philemon’s servant Onesimus. Paul was in a prison cell somewhere in Rome and no one seemed to be able to find him. Philemon sent his servant, Onesimus, a man of dubious nature, to find out where Paul was in Rome so that Paul’s followers might minister to his needs. And he found him. And it changed his life. Through his developing relationship with Paul, he changed and became a loyal follower of Christ.
