  • the POWER of a WITNESS
    Did you ever wonder how a bunch of uneducated,
    untrained ordinary fishermen become extraordinary men? They were so bold even in the midst of
    persecution, yet continued to testify about Jesus. So much so, that others
    perceived they had been with Jesus. When was the last time people noticed that
    you were with Jesus? Tune in for today’s
    discussion on the power of a witness.

  • WHAT's your TESTIMONY?

    Have you ever been asked to give your testimony? Many people think a testimony  is something that needs to be grand like

    being saved from drugs or surviving some traumatic event. Not so! We are all called to be witnesses of God’s character, which means we
    should all be able to testify to what God has done in our lives. It’s not always what you’ve been through,
    BUT what He has kept us from. We are to
    be God’s mouthpiece and if we were called to the witness stand would we be equipped to testify to His work in our
    lives?

  • OVERNIGHT SUCCESS?

    Have you ever heard statements like this: “It’s great how everything worked out for

    them.” Or “Boy it must be nice to have
    that type of overnight success." Or how about, “That marathon runner was
    really lucky to make such good time.” It’s amazing how its human nature to discount God’s hand in moving
    in our lives or to underestimate the
    preparation that goes into reaching a goal. Stay tuned as Matt and Mom explore this topic on today’s program.

  • the PROBLEM with a "GOOD" CHILD

    EVERYONE WANTS ‘GOOD CHILDREN.’  IT’S SO NATURAL TO EVALUATE OUR CHILDREN’S

    LIVES BY THE WORLD’S STANDARDS OF SUCCESS: 
    GOOD STUDENT, HARD WORKING, ATHLETIC, SMART, NEVER IN TROUBLE...THE
    MARKERS GOES ON AND ON.

    BUT IS IT POSSIBLE WE CAN BE LOOKING AT THE WRONG RETURNS IN

    EVALUATING SUCCESS, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF GOD’S ECONOMY?  THE STORY OF THE TWO LOST SONS (ONE
    SUCCESSFUL; ONE NOT) SERVES AS THE FOUNDATION OF TODAY’S DISCUSSION.
