LUNCH WITH GOD
A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip
to
where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with Twinkies
and a
six-pack of Root Beer and he started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old man. He
was
sitting in the park just staring at some pigeons. The boy
sat down

There are No Coincidences.....just signs 7/27/2004
Isn't it amazing how God works in our lives! On a Saturday
night
Several weeks ago, this pastor was working late, and decided
to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00
PM, but his wife didn’t answer the phone. The pastor let
the phone ring many times. He thought it was odd that she
didn't answer, but decided to wrap up a few things and
try again in a few ...

The Meaning of Repentance 7/23/2004
I used to struggle with salvation/eternal security because
I always thought that repentance meant "turning
from sin." I have recently discovered that repentance,
or metanoia, does not mean turning from sin, but a change
of mind. As it relates to salvation, repentance is a change
of mind from what you previously believed or trusted in
for salvation, to trust the Lord Jesus Christ, the of ...

Ok, here it is. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with some,
not all, of these profiles. A person might write in it saying,
“I like meeting new friends, ” “I am real kind”, or many
other similar things. Yet when you go to talk to them you
end up finding out…differently. You start talking to them
just because you would like to talk, no real reason other ...

Can gays be christian? 7/1/2004
Here's an idea that will probably get me into trouble
here, but shouldn't. But I believe that is someone
is gay, they are in the same place as any other sinner. This
I say because homosexuality is said to be an abomination
to the Lord in the bible. And since murder and stealing and
many other things are sin, then why should churches be actually
"celebrating" their homosexuals? I've ...

Online Dating is Right! 6/28/2004
To be honest, when I first heard that there were people who
were against Christians dating online or putting any kind
of effort into finding a partner, I was incensed! I was so
mad that if it were perfectly sanctified, I would have slapped
somebody! Partly I was angry because these people (not
here at big church) were married and I felt like they were
looking down at us smugly and judging ...

Attitude is a word we kick around a lot, isn't it? Should
a Christian have a mostly positive attitude in life?

Chuck Swindoll has said, "I am convinced that life
is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it."
That 90% is attitude. We can't ...

It helps us endure.
It knits us together.
Calms the raging waters.
Illuminates the hidden recesses of the soul.

When it hurts to live 6/12/2004
It hurts to live.
But the worse pain is not living at all.

We feel the numbness of their shutting out reality.
We hear those who shudder at the price tag of true life.

But it was not meant to be this way.

We were all destined to walk through the flames of trials

Sometimes she walks slowly into waves, testing the current

Sometimes she stands afar off. Very timid. Scanning the

But always play.

First impressions--read between the lines!! 6/9/2004
We tend to be biased towards what we want to see in a person.
For example, if we are looking for someone who is a serious
Christian, we jump up and down with excitement when he introduces
himself as "Bob, saved for 20 yrs, run my own ministry
to the homeless, attending bible school at night, etc.,
etc." But it's not just what he says that counts.
It's what *else* he says! I've seen guys ...

Are you a hypocrite?
<br>
Hypocrisy is the feigning of beliefs, feelings, or virtues
that one does not hold or possess; insincerity.

All most all of us would normally respond to this question
with such bold self righteousness that we would not really
search inside ourselves to see if we might actually have
an area or area’s where we might be a hypocrite.
