None of us likes being told what to do. But what if you're better off living (submitted) under God's authority and under what the Bible teaches?

In this message, Max Vanderpool outlines what Biblical Authority is and is not...and why it's worth embracing.

God has placed something inside every human being that craves the "everlasting." It's why some people give large sums of money to colleges and hospitals and why others engage in dangerous pastimes. In this message, Max Vanderpool fleshes out several ineffective ways meant to "satisfy" that craving.

Could you use a little energy this Christmas? There's a simple, spiritual practice that could energize your days...and your relationships.

Could you use a little peace? Again, this one, simple practice can unlock the feeling of freedom (and get rid of the weight you may be shouldering).

Even though God has a right to expect that you'll obey Him and do what He asks, God never forces you to comply. In fact, despite His omnipotence (all-powerfulness), God will never make you obey Him, love Him back or do what He says.

That's entirely up to you. Of course, should you chose to let God in on your life, you'll need to make room for Him to operate.
