  11/4/2012 The Rebuke of Jesus

Are the things we pursue in life worthy of Christ? Did he give himself for us so that we could pursue these things? “Once you really realize how Christ sacrificed for you, you won't spend the rest of your life living to fulfill your own human desires and appetites, but you live for what God wills.” (1 Peter 4:2) Sometimes we need Godly rebuke and sometimes to rebuke another.

In Jesus' Steps: Practical Christianity from Peter The Rev. Dr. John W. Yates II
2/18/2012 Walking in Spirit-Given Life

The Christian life is lived in, by and through the power of the Spirit. It is a supernatural –and natural – life. Too often we focus on the work of the Spirit at conversion, and at our resurrection, but neglect the Spirit’s work in our present, everyday lives. Paul tells the Roman Christians to “walk according to the Spirit.”

 Hope in Christ The Rev. Sam Ferguson
  5/22/2011 When the Spirit Comes

God wants to fill you with his Holy Spirit. Understand the differences between receiving the Holy Spirit, a baptism in the Spirit, and being filled with the Spirit.

  4/3/2011 The Vine Life: Bearing Much Fruit

In John 15 Jesus calls us to life in the vine, abiding in him and bearing much fruit. This call to bear much fruit is not a demand to a moral checklist, but an invitation to the life that is truly and eternally life.

 The Vine Life The Rev. John Kurcina
  4/3/2011 The Vine Life: Bearing Much Fruit

Bearing fruit for Christ involves our choice to abide in him, and letting him abide in us. We abide in his love as he abides in the Father's love.

 The Vine Life The Rev. Bob Koth
  3/27/2011 The Vine Life: Being Pruned for a Purpose

God loves me and has designed me to draw life from him as I remain connected to the vine which is Jesus Christ. As a loving Father, he prunes back areas of my life that may potentially become the things from which I draw my ultimate satisfaction, security and fulfillment. And he does this so that we can draw more deeply from Him and be more fruitful, reflecting the character of Jesus Christ.

 The Vine Life The Rev. Robert Watkin
