Jesus was moved with compassion to help others. When given the opportunity to help someone do we jump at the chance to do it? Or do we find reasons not to?

A trial is not the same thing as a temptation. Both temptations and trials are difficult, but a temptation is brought on by either Satan or our sinful hearts, while a trial is allowed by God in order to refine us and to make us more like Jesus. A faith that can't be tested is a faith that can't be trusted.

Most people get a sense that something bad is coming down the Road. We look around and realize walking down roads in life that we don’t want to be traveling. Creation is looking around asking, "Why are we here and what does the future hold?" The future is uncertain – that is why we freak out, because we don’t know what’s going to happen next.

History has done everything to the Cross, but ignore it. No one can ignore it! You can’t ignore a piece of lumber that suspends the greatest claim in history.

It seems our world is always interested in refreshment. I’m amazed how many different specialty waters or energy drinks there are now! People are thirsty for something to keep them going, awake, and on the move, but only Jesus offers real refreshment; real lasting spiritual energy.

Answering Your Questions Concerning The Rapture & Other End Times Events.

It's funny the things that can inspire a message. An encounter on a recent trip helped reinforce in my mind that we all have ideas about the end of days. Right or Wrong, people are wondering what will happen, when the world comes to an end.

The World had a beginning, and it will have an end. According to the Bible, the next big event on God’s prophetic calendar could happen any day. The World will be traumatized by the fulfillment of what theologians call the Rapture of the church.

Many people don't realize that some of the problems they’re facing today are the direct result of Apathy. People just don’t care about much anymore, unless and until it directly affects their comfort zone. Apathy causes depression, stifles our creativity, stunts our spiritual growth, and drains our energy.

No one who was alive in 1980 can forget the eruption of Mount St Helens. But many have forgotten Harry R. Truman, the man who failed to head all the warning signs that had occurred over a period of many months.
