Common Sense Conversations

Would you wash the feet of someone you love who hurt you? Would you wash the feet of someone who betrayed you and stabbed you in the back? Are we allowing humility to lead and guide our lives or are we allowing what we deserve to guide us? These are all questions we look at in this podcast.

Are we more like the Priest and Levite or the Samaritan? Jesus teaches us there is one word that separated these men and it was what Jesus had that we should as well: compassion. Compassion for the hurting made the difference.

If you are serving in the local church or serving the Lord and your concern is power, prestige, notoriety, then you are not lining up with God’s Word. So what does that look like, does this describe me and the church I attend, and what do I do about it?

Are we spending our greatest resource, time, trying to build bigger earthly barns? Or are we investing our time on Jesus and serving others? Are we more worried about always having and getting more or are we satisfied with what we have?

Too often churches have an us verses them mentality. The problem is that doesn’t line up with God’s Word. All people are whosoever’s. This episode will look at 3 us verses them mentalities that are detrimental to the church.

When looking at our lives, everyone seems to be so busy. But are we too busy? Are we playing into the enemies plans by being too busy to really serve the Lord?

We can so caught up in emotionalism that we forget that emotions are not the focal point of our life. Faithfulness and growing in the journey is more important than how we feel.

Why don’t we see miracles in our lives and in the Church like we should? Could it be that we have become so focused on moments that we are missing the miracles that God has in store for us daily?

In our churches and lives today we seem to struggle with prayer being the centerpiece. We have too often replaced prayer with programs in order to get results. But is this working?

Is the Great Commission more than just mission trips? Too often it seems people think that going on a mission trip is what the Great Commission is. I believe when we look at the Bible Jesus teaches it is so much more.
