- The Bible You Haven"t Read Yet: Blood Is Thicker Than Water
(15mb)

(12mb)
Sun, 26 Oct 2008 17:59:40 GMT
God used archetypes to illustrate some of the lessons of the Bible. Yet, they are often neglected because we don't have the perspective of the first people to read the scriptures. If you could see it through their eyes, you would not see anything like you saw them in the past. This week we see the archetype of Adam and Christ. - Still Taking The Bitter Pill? (14mb)
Sun, 19 Oct 2008 22:45:05 GMT

In Rev. 2 we see that the church at Ephesus is doing everything an active, involved church can do, but Jesus warns them that they have lost their first love. You can do everything possible, but if you are only going through the motions it means nothing. Ephesus is now a ruin. You don't want to end up that way. So how do you get back on track and regain that burning love of Christ? You can start by going back to the beginning to rekindle your love of Christ and get back to living your future! - Only One God (18mb)

Some ask why we can't worship God any way we want to woship Him. One story that illustrates that is the one about the sacrifices of Cain and Abel. One was acceptable and one was not. One was a sacrifice and one was just an offering. On the road of life, "I Did It My Way" should not be our mantra, but it should be I Did It God's Way.

Introduction to my upcoming book by the same title. "My people perish for lack of understanding." That can apply to us today. We are bombarded by so much false information that our faith is eroded and many don't believe. We face assault from science, evolution, atheism, popular psychology, permissive attitudes and feel good churches that don't train and uplift people to be strong and knowledgeable in their faith and the sharing thereof.

Sun, 10 Feb 2008 18:41:56 GMT
Isaiah 30:1-7 teaches us that the world is not a place to return to once we have accepted Christ. The Israelites desired to return to the slavery of Egypt rather than face the unknown with God on their side and at other times thought Egypt would assist them. People today return to the world for the supposed security it offers to us. It is slavery with a ball and chain. The world is too big of a ball to be chained to today. - Walking Away Empty Handed (4mb)

Sun, 16 Dec 2007 18:06:00 GMT
Lot while righteous, did not worship God like his uncle Abraham did. He chose the fertile plains by Sodom and Gomorrah. He prospered and became a magistrate, but that was all taken away when God destroyed the cities. What did he gain? Nothing. Abraham let Lot chose the direction he would go knowing God would take care of him no matter what would happen. Abraham had faith and worshiped God. What did he gain? Everything.

Mon, 03 Dec 2007 02:55:55 GMT
In John 21:1-17 We see someone not unlike ourselves. He had given up and went back to doing what he used to do in life. That man was Peter and Jesus, in verses 15-17 makes Peter confront his apathy. The result was the first sermon in Acts chapter two that Peter preached to the multitude. It is said that the only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth. However, you can pull yourself up out of the rut and that is what Peter did and made a difference in the world. - How Do You Melt a Heart of Stone? (3mb)
Sun, 25 Nov 2007 18:20:45 GMT
