Chiangmai Christian Fellowship

Lessons from the story of Thomas.

We all like a story with a good ending, but it seems that the stories in Bible rarely end well! Why don't things seem to work out for people like Jacob and others in the Bible? Find out how to find your own good ending!

Guest Speaker - Presentation by new Pastor of Family and Youth, Tom Miyakawa.

We are all looking for joy in life, but it is far too easy to be looking in the wrong places. God is the ultimate source of all that is good. True joy can be found in Him alone.

We were created by God to worship Him. We are saved and called to bring Him worship and praise. But, it does not always come naturally to do what we were created for!

Scripture is brutally honest about the flaws of its main characters. Most of them fell into horrible sins at one point or another in their lives. Christianity is a faith for the lost - Jesus came to help the sick not the healthy. If you are feeling spiritually sick, you have come to the right place!

Sin has not only broken our fellowship with God, but it damages human relationships as well - even some of our closest! But, God in His grace wants us to find reconciliation with both God and man!

We all create an image of our self that probably has much more to do with what we would like to be, rather than what we are. But, living in this fictional reality about ourselves never ends well, as this story illustrates well!

It is easy to separate work from our spiritual life, but this is a mistake. We spend a huge part of our life working, and all that we do is to be done to the glory of God. Find out how to make work a truly spiritual experience!

It is very tempting to think that the grass is indeed greener on the other side of the fence - and maybe we should feel that way! Not, because our neighbor holds the key to our happiness, but because God is calling us to seek the grass of his green pastures!

When we turn to God ans seek to follow Him, He promises to walk with us and take care of us. But, sometimes things do not go at all according to our plans. Does God not really care for us? Why do we often meet with pain and difficulty if God loves us? This message answers these questions.

Temptation is a very real part of life. Learn how to help others overcome sin and temptation in their life.

It is always good practice to stop and evaluate where we are and if we are on the right track! This practical message gives us tools to see where we are in our walk of faith.

It is one thing to be a religious person, is entirely something else to have a personal encounter with God. This is a message for those who want to meet God.

A dysfunctional family is a family where each person is living for themselves and is not looking out for, or loving others. Our dysfunction comes in many flavors and styles, but the root of it is all the same. Isaac had a pretty dysfunctional family and gives us lots to think about regarding our own lives!

It is never easy to follow int he footsteps of an extraordinary leader, especially if you are not all that extraordinary. But, God's work, blessing, and presence is never conditioned by our abilities. God often does the most extraordinary things through the most ordinary people - like me.

What does it mean for God to be Sovereign, and what should we do with this truth?

This special Easter Message invites you to see the resurrected Savior!

Rivalry and conflict seem to be a part of life we cannot escape, and yet, it is clearly not God's plan.

It is God's plan to use us, even though we really bring nothing to the table, so that in the end, God gets all the glory!

God has promised to be our refuge, but what does that means when there are floods, earthquakes and disasters. Does God really not care? Is He really not our protector? This challenging message answers these important questions.

The faithful followers of Jesus, in both the Old and New Testament, understood the vital importance of praying God's will and purpose into reality. We may feel that God is going to do what He is going to do, and we have no part in it - but that is far from the experience of the heroes of the faith. This message challenges us to gain a more biblical understanding of God's operation in the world.

There is great confusion in the Church regarding the role of the Old Testament in the life of a New Testament follower of Jesus. What are we to do with all the old and seemingly disconnected stories under the old covenant. The life of Abraham reminds us that there is one story in the Bible and it is the story of the Gospel from beginning to end!

We know that God has a plan for our life, and we affirm that God knows best. Thus, we want to know God's will and follow it. But, how do we discover God's will? When we need to make an important decision, how do we know what God is leading us to do?

Before Jesus heals the paralytic in John 5 he asks, "Do you want to be healed?" It seems rather unnecessary to ask such a thing, but the truth is we are often happy with our brokenness!
