As we look at what it really means to be committed to Jesus, Pastor Ford asks us to consider this question—Are we paying the price that it takes to follow the Lord Jesus Christ?  Because there is a cost associated with following Him, and it includes self-sacrifice.  Have you begun to pick up your cross, die daily, and follow...

It costs a lot to be a disciple of Jesus.  But guess what—it costs more not to be one!  Because Jesus said, “For whoever wants to save their life will lose it.  But whoever loses their life for My sake, will save it.”...

When we’re committed to Jesus, we need to have a commitment that’s three dimensional—first to the person of Christ, then to the proclamation of the gospel, then to participation in what He has called us to do and gifted us for.

Today, as we study John 12 and continue to learn about how Mary broke her alabaster box of fragrant perfume to anoint Jesus, we’ll see the extent of the sacrificial love she was showing to Him by doing that. And perhaps her story will compel us to consider what it is that we will sacrifice for Jesus.

As we live the Christian life, we need a love that will sacrifice for the Lordship of Jesus Christ.  Because many of us have praise for Christ on our lips, but the rest of our lives doesn’t demonstrate our love for Him.  And according to Pastor Ford, in other words, we often have high praise, but low living!

Others can tell how much we love Jesus by the way we serve Him. They can tell by the way we give to Him.  They can tell by the way we worship Him.  You see, a lot of us have a fake “Zirconium Jesus.” Because if we all had a real “Diamond Jesus” then there’d be nothing that would keep us from going crazy...

When we consider what the Lord Jesus did for us, we see the magnitude of it—He paid for the sins of the world.  We see the magnificence of it—we were enemies and while we were yet sinners, He died for us.  The majesty of it—the Creator died for the creature.  And the mystery of it—why would someone so...

Pastor Ford will explain today that we need to realize that we can’t fix what we can’t face and we can’t correct what we won’t confront. In order for us to be restored, God first wants us to acknowledge that we have issues, that we have sinned, and that we’ve broken fellowship with Him. When we do that, then...

We’ll be reminded today that we have a God Who cannot love us more than He already does and will never love us any less.  And even though we sometimes ignore the plan He has for us and we walk away from Him, He will never walk away from us.  No matter how far we stray, we never cease to be His children.

Faith sees the invisible, believes the unbelievable, does the impossible and accepts the intangible. We can trust God even though we can’t see Him because He has revealed Himself to us in His word, through creation, and all that He’s done for us.
