The Problem with Fishing

Luke 5:1-11 might make us wonder: Is fishing really the best analogy for evangelism? Well, it was the best one for Simon, because he was a fisherman! Find your metaphor--use your life in service to the gospel to the glory of God.

The Difference Between Music & Noise

In 1 Corinthians 13 Paul explains that LOVE is the key to using our spiritual gifts faithfully. Without love, we go through life like a noisy gong or clanging cymbal--our message is pure noise! With the practice and discipline of true, divine love, the church can sound more like the beautiful symphony God intends.
