I defy anyone who follows Christ to watch this video and remain comfortable. It should have us reflecting again on what it is to be a Christian and it’s a pity that the word ‘radical’ has to be affixed before it as though following Jesus was anything other than these requirements. For His Name’s Sake […]
Read More Sermon Jam: Radical ChristianWhen I watched this little snippet it got me thinking again about the subject heading. I also think about a Keith Green song which had the lyrics ‘If you love the Lord’.

Read More Sermon Jam: So You Think You’re A ChristianI remember watching this comedy sketch and making a note that said I’m sure car salesmen wouldn’t behave like this to get the sale, but I’m not too sure about church salesmen.

Good stuff from Mr. Keyes. For His Name’s Sake Shalom […]

Read More Prayer Points (WE-110326)Usually the PP that appear concern national concerns and the like, but this week more than any showed that it’s good to make some of the issues personal. Health I was not well at all this week. I suffered from flu like symptoms that affected my breathing, my sinuses, the heaviness of my chest, my […]
Read More Prayer Points (WE-110312)My child, don’t turn away or become bitter when the LORD corrects you. Pro 3:12 The LORD corrects everyone he loves, just as parents correct their favorite child.
