Purposeful listening has become a lost art. It's the type of listening that cares enough to take the time and give someone our full attention. When a person wants to talk with us, it's time to put down our cell phones and listen. It's impossible to listen effectively and with

As new technology continues to emerge, it will continually make what came before it obsolete. For example: You'll never see anyone using a rotary phone connected to a wall anymore. If, for some strange reason, you did see someone using this old, outdated technology, they would not be able to

This world wants to keep Christianity inside the 4 walls of the church house. So, there's nothing like the camaraderie of getting out in the public arena as a local church family, and witnessing for Jesus. It's time for all Christians to step out into the public arena and declare.

If you're a born-again, blood-washed, saved-by-grace, Christian, and want to call yourself a name, call yourself what God calls you: a SAINT! Romans 1 refers to the called and beloved of God as SAINTS! Romans 1:6-7 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ: To all that

When someone asks: What is your favorite sermon?, most look back to the past and remember something they've already heard. They point back to a sermon that really helped them. We all do this, myself included, because there is benefit to looking back and remembering the lessons learned. But there

By default, AI causes us to ignore the work. It's a quick fix to "writer's block". However, it robs us of the dance of sweating over the details after we've spent hours working on a project. Because people are obsessed with getting on to the next thing, AI has taught

John 17:14-16 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the

The singing at Academy Road Baptist Church's Fall Revival Meeting ministered to the hearts of all those who were able to attend. Get a blessing yourself by listening to Christian young people sing unto the Lord! Psalm 30:4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give

If you go out to eat at Dominick's in the Bronx, you won't receive a menu. Instead, the waiter will simply ask you: Whadda ya want? If you respond with: I'd like a menu, you won't get one! He'll return a bit later and ask you the same question: Whadda

ONE: Neglect of Knowledge. A genuine ignorance of something is understandable and a legitimate defense, but neglect of knowledge isn’t. For example: You can't blame a person for NOT knowing what he never had a chance to know. You CAN, however, blame a person for neglecting to know what

James 5:16 ...pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Praying for 2 folks that God would heal their eyes and bring back their vision. Praying for 3 different families who are dealing with cancer. Praying for 2

In the parable of the sower, Jesus told his preachers, they would have: Wayside hearers... Stony ground hearers... Thorny ground hearers... Good ground hearers. There's nothing wrong with the SEED. There's something wrong with the HEARER! Now, go sow some seed! Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing,

Pilgrim Baptist is more than just another local-church. We're in the Lords' army as ACTIVELY enlisted soldiers, battling for lost souls, as we obey our commanding officer, the Lord Jesus Christ! Enlist with us today... 1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life,

You'll never be ready to stand up and preach the perfect sermon. There is no perfect preacher, so there are no perfect sermons. And once we repent of perfectionism, which is actually pride, we can rejoice and allow God to mold us and make us BETTER! Perfectionism is just a

People make choices every day. Some choose to complain, that no church is good enough, spiritual enough or has enough programs for them. The reality is: most people today are NOT walking into a church-house with a heart for souls and a desire to evangelize the lost. Most don’t

Many churches have an age-segregated Sunday School class for children scheduled before the main preaching service. These age-specific lessons can be a great blessing for children to learn the Bible and memorize scripture verses. However, in the past, some have argued that dividing young children into age-segregated Sunday School classes

Christians should strive to always tell the whole truth, exactly as the whole truth should be told. Have you ever told an untruth about somebody just to get a laugh or poke fun? Have you ever told a story a little different, just to protect yourself against personal shame? Have

Good, Bible-beleiving churches are hard to find these days. When, or IF, you do find one, the location becomes an issue. Rarely is the location right off a major interstate. More often than not, you'll have to drive past a lot of other "churches", to get to a good one.

In Deuteronomy 6, Old Testament Jewish fathers were commanded to teach their children diligently the ways of the Lord. In Ephesians 6, New Testament Christian fathers are commanded to bring up their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. God commands the fathers, in both the Old and

A good, Bible-believing church encourages parents to worship together with their children. The Bible says... * Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
