Lessons of Courage

When we read about the courage demonstrated by the characters of the Bible, we are inspired to step ahead with courage. As suggested one time in our First United Methodist Newsletter, imagine you lived like Daniel. As he faced the lions, the only weapon he had was prayer. That was enough for him because of his self-discipline to live boldly and courageously for God.…

In the picture some people have in their minds, when the preaching is over everybody goes home to the rest of their lives until next Sunday. This passive approach is not what our faith is meant to be. Christianity is an active faith !

One of the key verses…

Courage to Carry Out His Purpose

I was inspired by all the wonderful post this Good Friday and thank God for blessing me with more than I deserve. Reading the post, made me think about the tremendous courage it took for Christ to carry out His purpose.

I remember doing a topic study years ago about courage and found many examples of courage in the Bible. A few, I would like to share.

In Luke 9:11-28, the servant did not maximize his master’s gains because he was afraid to take a risk and make…

1960's, Change occurs. While the Church slept, beneath the flag. Church and the Drone warfare.

1960's, Change occurs. While the Church slept, underneath the flag, and ushered in a generation of ministers, more bent on money than truth and witnessing, change occurred, not for the good - but for the worse. Wolves flowed forth into the pastorship and no one noticed, although the warning for this generation was given, minds were on a much different level than that of observance of the sheep and the flock.

Faith Built on Prayer

I have been writing recently about applying our faith. The greatest example of the use of applied faith is found in the life of Jesus. The basis of Christianity is faith and is built up by prayer.

It is the start of greatness and the chemical or element which, when mixed with prayer, gives one direct communication with God. When Jesus was…
