Return Ministries episodes:

• January 03, 2016Standing in the Gap

  In this lesson, we look at the brevity of life and how Solomon called

  everything under the sun vanity of vanity, or meaningless. We compare time

  to eternity by using a long rope with just a little section of the rope

  representing our life on Earth. We take a look at the end of Luke 6 and

  what it really means to be standing on the Rock...

• December 27, 2015Giving Alms, Praying, Fasting

  Giving Alms, Praying and Fasting are three spiritual disciplines that all

  Christians should partake of in their daily lives. In Matthew Chapter six,

  Jesus speaks of all three. They are like a 3-fold cord that, when twined

  together, is not easily broken...

• December 20, 2015Christmas is About a Change of Government

  In the book of Matthew, the wise men asked, "Where is He that is born King

  of theJews?" Nobody is offended with baby Jesus.  It is the fact that He is

  the Word of God, the authority of God, or the King of Kings and Lord of

  Lords that offends.

• December 13, 2015Wise Men Worship Jesus

  In this lesson, we look at the Christmas story from Matthew chapter 2 and

  see that the wise men saw Jesus, fell down, worshiped Him, and then gave

  him expensive gifts. We study the word "Worship," and we try to define what

  is true worship...

• December 12, 2015No Regrets

  In this lesson, we study what has been commonly called "one of the greatest

  chapters in the Bible”: Romans 8.  As we look at this amazing chapter, we

  see how the Apostle Paul teaches how all things and why all things are

  working together for our good and God’s glory. We should have no regrets...

• December 06, 2015How Much Are You Worth?

  Normally, when this question is posed in a public setting, the typical

  reaction is to share a quick dissertation of one’s portfolio. However, this

  question is not based upon the value of financial significance but

  spiritual value. One of my favorite ice breaker activities was to have the

  participants in the leadership training or workshops to introduce

  themselves to each other, excluding one small detail...

• November 29, 2015Faith Without Works is Dead

  In this lesson, we look at the 2nd chapter of James and see that believing

  needs to be coupled with obedience.  Specifically, the “works” James was

  speaking of here were reaching out to the poor and needy. Jesus’s ministry

  here on the earth was to preach the gospel to the poor and then to help

  those in need...

• November 25, 2015Giving Thanks in the Furnace of Pain and Suffering

  God puts Christians to the test of fiery trials to purify their faith and

  to burn the wood, hay and stubble out of our hearts. It is easy to give God

  thanks for the good times and pleasures of life, but when the pain and

  suffering comes of the fiery trials, it is in these times that God wants us

  to give Him thanks...

• November 15, 2015How to Really Change Deeply and be Transformed into the Bride of Jesus Christ: Dealing with Our Sin Problem the Right Way

  In this lesson, we deal with the problem of sin. The Bible says that sin is

  crouching (like a tiger) waiting to attack us and trying to rule over us.

  If we really want to grow in God, we need a face-to-face personal

  relationship with Jesus...
