A Different Kind of Unity

Given by David Johnson

With the emphasis Scripture places upon unity, it is clear that all of us have a responsibility to promote godly unity in the Church.

Concretized Christianity

Given by David Johnson

One of the unique aspects of the human mind is the ability to consider abstract ideas. But for abstract concepts to be effective, they must be applied in concrete ways.

Limiting the Holy One

Given by David Johnson

Psalm 78 tells us to remember and teach that Israel frequently faltered because they limited the Holy One of Israel. Do we ever do the same thing? Scripture tells us many things God is "able" to do, but that isn't the full picture. God's "ability" should have a profound impact on how we live.

Honor to Whom Honor

Given by David Johnson

In a world where disrespect is common, it is easy for the Christian to get caught up in that behavior. But Scripture requires more than avoiding disrespect; it requires respect.

Sheep Without a Shepherd

Given by David Johnson

We sometimes find ourselves swept up in conflicting emotions and attitudes as we view the turmoil and tragedy of today’s world. Around us people take sides and lash out in anger and frustration at those who view events from a different perspective. What seems evil and unjust to one seems totally justifiable to another.

If the Spirit Dwells in You

Given by David Johnson

Scripture shows us that having the Holy Spirit dwelling within us is essential for salvation. Is the Holy Spirit dwelling in you? Does "dwell" simply mean it's there or is there more involved in "dwelling?" How does having the Holy Spirit dwell in a Christian affect the way he or she lives?
