DISCOVERING YOUR TRUE IDENTITY IN CHRIST | MARK 8:34

I was surprised one day last week, when I walked into a large chain bookstore and there was what was called the self-help section of books. Now, I have not been in the bookstore for quite a while, and the self-help section was new to me. And I looked and I saw that the self-help section of books, it was larger than the history section. Larger than a science section... Than the biography section...

AH! PEACE! | Romans 5:1

Have a word for you today. It's the word peace. Is there a more lovely, a more wonderful word than peace? That's why early Christians loved to greet one another with the word peace because that's what they had experienced, peace. The Bible calls God the God of peace. And Jesus it calls the Prince of Peace. Imagine Jesus standing in a storm-rocked boat, commanding the waves, the wind, with the word peace.

CHRIST IS YOUR LIFE | Colossians 3:3-4

A few years ago, my wife and I spent New Year's in Rosemary Beach, Florida, with our kids and grandkids where we discovered the Sugar Shack. That has to be the largest candy store in the world. I mean, I've never seen so much candy aisles and aisles of sugar. You cannot imagine how much candy there is, and you should have seen the eyes of my grandkids and Grandpa. And I tell you that because I often feel like a little boy in a candy store when I open up God's word is there is so much here...
