Children of God — Draw Close to God
Comments Off on Children of God — Draw Close to God, Filed in Videos, by CGP.Reflecting on our amazing heritage as children of God can inspire and motivate us to draw close to God as our Father. We are reminded by Jesus that in order to have this close relationship, this deep personal attachment to our Father, we must become as little children.
Parents understand the importance of listening to their children and responding to their needs, similarly God hears us and provides the care we need. God wants us to have the heart of a child who cries out for help and trusts in him to respond. Consider the examples of Jeremiah, Jonah, Asa, and Jehoshaphat, men who looked to God for their safety and security in times of great distress. Let their stories encourage us in our times of trial, so we may draw close to God and put our trust in his deliverance. More

Loyalty and the 9th of Av
Comments Off on Loyalty and the 9th of Av, Filed in Videos, by CGP.In a time of divided loyalties, who deserves your loyalty and trust?

For those who profess a belief in the Creator God, it is God alone who deserves our loyalty first and foremost, for he is loyal and can be trusted. Yet, in reading many biblical accounts, it is evident that God tests the loyalty of those who follow him. More

Blessings or Curses — What Will You Choose?
Comments Off on Blessings or Curses — What Will You Choose?, Filed in Videos, by CGP.The discovery of the Mt. Ebal Curse tablet has provided evidence of the historicity of the biblical accounts in the books of Deuteronomy and Joshua.
Do you know the story?
Moses had instructed that the whole nation and the foreigners with them were to proclaim blessings on Mt. Gerizim and curses on Mt. Ebal after they had entered the promised land. This dramatic chorus was led by Joshua and the Priests who read from the writings of Moses as God had spoken them to him. So what is the take-away for Christians in our time? Are there still blessings and curses? Has the Lord God of Israel changed, or is he the same today as he was in the past and will continue to be in the future. More

Is Your Christianity Co-opted?
Comments Off on Is Your Christianity Co-opted?, Filed in Videos, by CGP.There are some astonishing parallels between the challenges of the first century Christians and followers of Christ today. But we have the New Testament writers to thank for their warnings as they have given us wisdom to navigate the political and social turmoil of our time. In Paul’s day in Judea there were four major factions all vying for political power and the church brethren were often in danger of being subverted by one group or another. More

Growing the Mind of God – Wisdom and the Brain
Comments Off on Growing the Mind of God – Wisdom and the Brain, Filed in Videos, by CGP.The mission that God has given his people is to walk with him and be ‘perfect’ but this perfection is the result of a growth process. This is the process that will make us spiritually whole and complete and blameless in God’s sight. Unfortunately, though many may hear God’s instructions and believe they are doing good works for God the reality is that they are deluding themselves. They have missed key components in the process which would help them grow the mind of God. What is missing? More

What approach and attitude should motivate fathers and what are the vital lessons they should be transmitting to their children. Join us for a journey through the scriptures that we might better understand our responsibilities as parents in preparing our children to meet life’s challenges. More
