Semper Fidelis
July 17, 2011 - It is not negotiable. It is not relative, it is absolute. The phrase is "Always faithful." It isn't "Sometimes Faithful." It isn't "Usually Faithful," but always faithful. Who is always faithful though, and to what, exactly are they faithful? Marines pride themselves on their straightforward mission and steadfast dedication to accomplish it. Things do not need to be spelled out for them; they know what it means and what to do about it.
Vigilant
July 10, 2011 - Jesus warned the disciples and us to "be on your guard," against hypocrisy. He described it as something that grows from the inside out and it will be revealed for all to see. One day everything will be exposed, even the hidden motives of our hearts. Jesus gives us instruction on how to live lives that demand an explanation, without shame or regret. We all need vigilance to live authentic, faithful Christian lives in the presence of the one who ultimately matters.
Woe There!
July 3, 2011 - How do you look from afar? More importantly, how do you look up close? Jesus cares most about what we look like, up close, on the inside. Jesus wasn't afraid to insult those who were playing phony religious games by acting spiritual. No one, who plays games with God's truth can claim that Jesus didn't warn them of the consequences.
Ever-Ready
June 26, 2011 - Luke 11:29-32
If Judgement Day came today, would you be ready? Have you come to a conclusion regarding who Jesus is, and why He came to earth? There is a great deal of talk today about how much time is left and yet many are unwilling to make a decision, or take a stand on the person and work of Jesus.

A House Divided
June 19, 2011 - Luke 11:14-28
It is not easy being a Christian man in today's culture. The battle is real and the challenges are great for keeping our homes protected and unified. How can we win the battle for the hearts and lives of those we love dearly?

Transitions happen. So how do we handle transitions? Everyone goes through transitions during their lifetime. Some transitions are predictable. Some are generally expected. Some transitions come quickly, like adulthood or growing into retirement, and when those transitions happen, our faith can be tested...

Moral Freedom
June 5, 2011 - Our Heavenly Father has provided us with ten rules for our benefit, so that we might experience the freedom that is His gift when we live as He designed. We conclude this series this Sunday as we consider how to honor others by honoring marriage while avoiding anything that leads to adultery.
