Birds of a Feather Part 2 of 2

Let’s not forget that our mission is to win souls to Christ. This may cause us to have to go where non-believers are. Jesus sat and ate with sinners. But, He didn’t just hang out with them. His purpose was to minister to them. In Matthew 9:11, when Jesus was eating with the tax collectors and [...]

Birds of a Feather Part 1 of 2

When we are trying to accomplish something, we want to get around people that are striving for the same things we are striving for. Just getting away from a negative environment can change the way you look at things.

Judgments and Opinions Part 1 of 2

Have you ever formed a negative opinion about someone before you really got a chance to know them? Perhaps it was the other way around and someone formed a negative opinion about you before getting to know you?

I remember years ago, a girl that attended the same church as I did got pregnant. She and I had fallen out a few years prior to that and were no longer friends.

The Company You Keep Part 1 of 2

For a long time, I misunderstood the true meaning of  1 Corinthians 15:33. I believe that many other people misunderstand the true meaning of it as well. It says “Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits”. While we should be cautious of the company we keep, many mistake it to mean that we [...]

Get Better, Not Bitter Part 2 of 2

When I think or roots, I often think of plants. A plant’s roots absorb the nutrients from the soil. Just as natural roots on a plant suck the nutrients from the soil, bitterness sucks the life out of our spirits. When the spirit gets weak, our flesh gets stronger. Moreover, bitterness can affect us physically. [...]
