Sunday at Five video devotional

“A cleansed temple is a place of fruitful ministry.” Here is the video devotional from the DFW Sunday at Five June 6, 2010. It looks at Luke 19 and Jesus’ cleansing of the temple, making it a place of fruitful ministry, and how that relates to us and His ability to purify us for His glory in the lives of those people we meet.
It is also a sort of “object lesson” looking at a church where they turned their temple into a “den of thieves.”
If, after viewing this six-minute video devotional, you would like to study the passage covered more deeply, you can listen to the full-length audio sermon I preached on the passage earlier this year by clicking here.
If the video above will not play on your computer, you can also see another version of it on YouTube here:

Spiritual Birth


When you were born physically, your spirit was not alive but dead in sin. In today’s message at the church, we looked at John 3, and Jesus’ explanation to Nicodemus of his need to be “born again” — spiritually born alive from heaven, and what that means. The gospel message is available for your listening here, in English and Romanian.

What did they die for? Memorial Day tribute

A video Memorial Day tribute to help us soberly remember, with a song from Twila Paris that looks at the men, and the Man, who died for us and our freedom in this life, and the next.

Guardians of the Gospel

At last night’s home fellowship, we looked at a very important topic from Philippians 3–the necessity of church leaders guarding the purity of the true gospel against the invasion of false teachers who try to do the impossible: blend faith and works as the basis of salvation. You can hear the study, which is one of the most necessary topics I’ve taught on this year, at this link.

Upcoming attractions

Coming soon — a devotional message on this parable from Matthew 13:

24 He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, 25 but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. 26 So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also. 27 And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds?’ 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?’ 29 But he said, ‘No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.’”

Answers for Jews awaiting Messiah

The Messiah’s people, who have come to know Him, present to you the way to also come to know Him, and receive God’s forgiveness of sins in His name. You can read it here, as well as find an opportunity to correspond with them and ask questions. The founder of this ministry, Jews for Jesus, this week went to be with Jesus. He surely wants you, be you a fellow Jew or a Gentile, to be there one day too.

Thought for the day

John 3:17–“For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him the world might be saved.” We deserve condemnation; we need salvation. In Christ, we escape what we deserve and find what we need: Forgiveness, cleansing, and eternal joy in His presence.
