Looking Through Mom's Eyes
God directs us to be long suffering with others. God's plan is that we are mild natured human beings. He would never map us out to be jealous people. God's recipe for a fruitful love grows from a humble spirit. He instructs us to manage our emotions and forgive. The following are things we can do for moms who love us: show them love and gratitude, always do what is right, do things for them on their special days, take care of them now, and always make them proud.

A Generous Community
These days, there is an appetite for spirituality and a distaste for "church." Is this really what God wanted? The church was intended to be a dynamic, life-giving movement of people who experience and extend the love of God together. In fact, Jesus said that you can't be spiritual on your own, that the spiritual life is something we do together. If you catch a glimpse of God's dream for doing life together, we are convinced you'll never want anything less.

Character traits of Abraham
Abraham walked in Love and refused to allow strife into his house. He was a giver, he preferred his neighbor. Strife will stop the blessing. Abraham knew that God would bless him wherever he went as long as he was walking in Love. Abraham was a servant, he was humble. The people we see in the Bible that are blessed are servants. We have to start where we’re at. We have to be faithful to do whatever God tells us to do.

2 Samuel 23:8-39 - Hail to the Cheifs
This passage is all about David's mighty men who with valor and loyalty supported David and his kingdom. We must understand that living in God's Kingdom is a community exercise. The church (the body of Christ) is an essential means of grace that God uses to sactify our hearts to keep on following the Lord. We all can learn the following principles from these men about how to keep our hearts from going astray from our Lord: 1) Give Credit to God for Victory, 2) Worship God in Difficulties, 3) Trust in God's provision, 4) Let sinful memories humble you. It is so easy for our hearts to drift away from Holiness and following the Lord Jesus. Make it your aim to guard your heart by noting the principle examples of these men who were loyal to David as you seek to live out your liife within the body of Christ for the honor of God.

2 Samuel 19:9-43 - Welcome Home
As King David begins his return to Jerusalem after the defeat and death of Absalom, he encounters four men. each of these he had met previously under different circumstances. This passage reveals much about those who will one day encounter Jesus as He returns to usher in the New Kingdom. In the text David meets a man who is presumptuous, one who is fearful, one who is humble, and finally one who is joyful. The question for us is how will we greet Jesus if He were to return today.

Grace Through Humility Pt 2
The one group of people that Jesus had harsh words for were the prominent religious leaders. The ones who were proud of their traditions and of their knowledge of and adherence to the law. They had missed it. No one is saved by the law. Not even in the Old Testament. Jesus had great grace and mercy to the worst of sinners who were humble, to those who knew their condition and were honest with them selves and with Jesus about their condition.

Is Your Christianity Internal or External?

A New Way to be Human
Do you struggle with arrogance, selfishness and complaining in your own life or those around you? Its especially difficult when that happens within our church family. Jesus, who is our model for humblesness and selflessness, wasn't just pretending to act that way, that's who He is. And that's how we as the church should be, not pretending, but genuinely loving each other and being unified for the sake of God's Kingdom.

2 Sameul 15 - The Politics of Impatience
Absalom leads a consiracy to take over the throne of Israel from David by becoming impatienct with God and his will. His Scheme seems to work as David decides to feel Jerusalem. The Author brings out the teme of impatience with God in this chapter through the following contrasts: 1) a Me-First Strategy vs. a Humble Strategy, 2) Godless Ambition vs. Self Sacrifice, 3) Rebellion vs. Submission, and 4) a Selfish Perspective vs. a Honest Perspective. One will learn that being impatient with God is like catching a knife on the wrong end - it will hurt. Like David Jesus crossed the Brook of Kidron to pray and accept the will of God. Are you more like Absalom or David and Ittai when it comes to your trust in the will of God? Listen and find out.

Living Upside Right in a Upside Down World
In our world we often associate greatness with such things as fame, fortune and influence. The icons and heros of our culture - those whom we esteem and look up to are often athletes, actors and artists. The kingdom of God is radically different for in Matthew chapter 18, Jesus turns our understanding of greatness on its head. In Jesus' mind we are greatest when we humble ourselves like that of a helpless little child. How countercultural! How subversive! Yet, how true for us today! Key Passage: Matthew 18:1-9
