The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The wages are crying out. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord almighty. ...

People Coming To Christ By: Pastor Ed Young | - Folks, we have an opportunity to do something for the glory of God that has rarely been done anywhere. Anywhere. I dont know why Gods doing it here. I have no rationale or reasoning behind it. God has just anointed this church in a supernatural way. The church is the only entity that is involved in people coming to Christ and having their eternity secure. Nothing else does it. Nothing else compares to it. Nothing else is even in the same ballpark--nothing.

Your Heart Should Flow Contentment By: Ed Young | - We're going to pick up right now a running dialogue between the Apostle Paul and his young leader, Timothy. Timothy was a true difference maker, a leader in the church at Ephesus. The church at Ephesus had a lot of people who had a lot of money, and Paul was giving instructions to Timothy. He was telling Timothy what to do, what to say to people about their true net worth: words that we need understand in today's culture. I think we'll all be surprised at this whole thing about wealth.

Heaven And Earth By: Ed Young | - Sex is between the ears before it"s between the legs. When you think about sex, do you think about God at the same time? If you don"t, I don"t think you're really thinking. If you do connect God and sex in the same thought process, I believe you're thinking right.

Barrier In Life By: Pastor Ed Young | - And after an hour and a half I looked at my watch and said, Hey, man, Ive got to get to the office. Ive got a meeting so, man, I really, really, enjoyed it.

Your Soul And Your Mind By: Ed Young | - But it"s not just sex. I can"t park my soul outside the bedroom. When you engage in sex outside of marriage, it"s unnatural. You"re taking just one aspect of sex""the physical" "and you are doing it with someone in a physical domain, and you think it"s just physical. But see, you can't do something that does not affect your soul and your mind. You can't use God. You can't rape sex. Because when you take sex out of its context, you're raping it. You're abusing it.

So I want you to know what you are signing up for before you do it. And so did Jesus Christ. If Jesus is not Lord of all, he is not Lord at all.
So lets begin with S. S stands for support. We need to support others uniquely. Let me do a little side bar and talk to the parents and also would be parents.

Why Does Marie Claire Let Gretchen Voss Write?
