Sins are like allergies. Their effects may be subtle or intense, but they all drain our vitality. Avoid your spiritual allergens.

You will never know who you touch until you touch who you know. You are God's investment where you are.

Be where the problems are.  And when you are, be part of the solution.

The church has two missions: go and teach.  Jesus called us to make a difference in our local community.

Ken and Dawn Bishop shared stories from their mission in Albania. God is working through them to spread the Gospel to the world.

Remember who God is, how He works, and what He's done, and you will find hope.  Remind one another with stories from your own lives.  Because of God's goodness, you can have hope in the future, yourself, and those around you.

We are only camping on Earth. Heaven is our home. Engage in the adventure here, but remember: we won't be here forever.

There's an art to growth. Manage it to grow well. Recognize your past and what needs to change. Then, step forward. (1 Cor. 13:11)

God chose us. Out of love, He gives us freedom to choose Him. And He gives us a chance to lead others to Him by our choices.

Christians are meant to be Humanity 2.0. We are called and enabled to have a better connection to God, and display Him more clearly.

God is the idealized father. He's present with us. He protects us. He sacrifices for us - His pride, His life. He truly loves us.

The Gideons do more than pass out Bibles: they introduce people to Jesus. We heard amazing stories of their ministry this morning.

The local church was meant to be an embassy. It is not only to represent Heaven, but be God's base of operations in the community.

If we ignore God's difficult teachings, we deny ourselves God's spiritual healing. Trust Him, and follow His guidance.

As the brain moves the body, so Christ should move us. Is His signal getting through? Strengthen it by following His call.

Are your reflexes like Jesus'? What is your first, reflexive reaction to pain? To hardship? To good things? To God's promises?

Do you have a pulse? God's heart beats for the stranger and the lost. God's heart is driven by love. Is yours?

Breath is a sign of life and a symbol for connection with God. Is your breath shallow? Is your vision dim? Is life suffocating?

David Garrett from Jews for Jesus shares with us the rich history and symbolism of the Jewish feasts and their relevance to Christianity.

Evangelism is a gift for some, but a command for all. We are to display Jesus' love by being involved in people's lives.

This Easter, remember - Jesus is our teacher and our king; He gave us His mission; and He reaches out to those who doubt Him.

Sin has a cost, and God loved us enough to pay it. The Son endured death and separation from the Father in order to save us.

Jesus wasn't content just to love us. He needed to show us. He sent us to do the same: to live out His revolutionary love.

Did the crowds on Palm Sunday praise Jesus because they wanted something out of it? Do we? Our faith calls for surrender to God.

Everyone matters. Do you remember it when you think about others? Act on it in your daily lives? Join the church in showing it?
