The overwhelming majority of parents say that parenting is harder than expected, and that they often parent based on others perception of how they parent.If only there was a book that could tell us what the purpose of children are.
There is nothing wrong with being a good person. Virtue is a good thing. But when we put on the Virtue Filter, it can turn be dangerous for ourselves and to others.
On Mother's day we hear from Denise, who share's her testimony about finding Jesus through her mother's strong and resilient faith. Denise shares how she found joy and peace in her life by loving Jesus with all her heart.
The Bible talks more about money than any other subject. We use money to achieve security and status in our life. In the Bible we learn that we get our security by the riches of God's glory. And we get our status from Jesus' sacrifice on the cross.
Has there ever been a time in our life that you felt completely overwhelmed? You don't have to look very hard to see how distracted we are as a culture. One of our most valuable resources is our attention. Let's find an alternative to busyness.
Your body is important not because of how much better or equal it is compared to another body. It is precious because it is woven by God Himself. Because you were seen from the beginning of time.
In Scripture Jesus consistently says that what is in our hearts is the most important. It is what inside that counts. Jesus teaches us that using filters to make ourselves look one way only keeps us from working on our self.
Will you start a different life. Will you turn from the old disappointment and will you meet Jesus? He will take all of your mess ups, sin, and disappointment. Jesus will make you new.
The more time we spend with Jesus. The more time we spend learning Jesus. The more time we will be like Jesus. The more that we are with Jesus the more we will conquer land for the Kingdom of God.
When we give our heart to King Jesus and we turn away from the kingdoms of this world we desire His law. We love it actually. We don’t look at it as a job or toil, but rather as a guideline on how to best represent the King.
God wants you on the team, not just in the arena. God wants you in the Kingdom, but not to watch, but to be a part of the movement. To participate. We each have a job, a skill, a gift...an experience. And it's all for Him. It's time to get in the game!
The rule of King Jesus is benevolent. To be under the rule of Jesus is to be loved and cared for. To be under the rule of Jesus is to give your life to Him. To be under the rule of Jesus is to serve others.
When we turn to King Jesus for our direction, order, guidance, plans, dreams and thoughts. We join into His Kingdom here on Earth. So how do we repent, so that we can take part in the Kingdom of God?
Marriage is a God-designed order. The Bible clearly says that men and women are valued equally by God, and should be valued equally by followers of Christ. And in marriage, the roles of Men and Women are based in love and service to each other.
When talking about sex “Echad” means one flesh; spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Sex is meant to bring about oneness of a married couple. Echad, when practiced outside of marriage, can be destructive. It is like starting a fire outside a fireplace that was designed to safely harness it.
From the beginning the purpose of marriage was to help build the earth. Ultimately we all have a calling. God created marriage for a man and woman to find friendship and their spiritual calling in life.
God defines love as something that does not start with a feeling. Love starts with sacrifice. It is not a transaction, and it is selfless. The difference between the worlds definition of love and God’s definition is vast. This is the message from Hamilton Hills Church on Sunday, February 5, 2023.
Do you get frustrated when you pray? Maybe you don't know what to pray or even how to pray. Jesus says that prayer is about you and God. And Jesus gave us a good roadmap in the Lord's Prayer, found in the book of Matthew. We are going to break down how this gives us a clear indication of how God desires us to pray.
The correct posture of prayer is realized when we understand who we are in view of who God is. Our challenge when approaching God is often that we are not still enough to hear what He is wanting to tell us. Being still is derived from the concept of vacating. We must find time to be still with God. If we are not seeking to hear God’s voice and seeking to be in His presence we will never find true shalom.
To Believe that God is near is to believe that he cares about you. The Bible instructs us "to not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." When we pray we can have the confidence that God is near, and He hears each an every prayer.
