Humility

A 5-day study on hospitality in an era of social distancing, tensions of race relations and so much uncertainty. Reflections on what a welcoming environment to strangers and friends can truly be written by Pastor Terry A. Smith of The Life Christian Church of New Jersey.

Cutlivating a Heart of Welcome

Moses was a great leader who learned being a servant leader is HARD. This week, we will use the acronym HARD to discuss some of Moses’ amazing qualities.

Moses learned that to be a good leader, he needed to be Humble, Approachable, a Representative of God, and a Delegator.

The HARD Leader

Leadership- Many want it, but few understand the cost of being one. Leadership is not the position or designation; it is the heart. It is never easy, there is a cost you pay, sacrifice to make & willingness to serve. This study explores the price one pays to be a leader. A good leader does so cheerfully, willingly & from the heart.

Mentoring Lessons- It's Never Easy!

He lived in the wild, wore weird clothes, had an appetite for bugs, and an aptitude for berating people. But, despite John the Baptist’s eccentric appearance and lifestyle, Jesus claimed “there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist” (Matt. 11:11). Who was John the Baptist? What made him so great? Perhaps, most importantly, what can we learn from him about true greatness in God’s kingdom?

Grasshoppers, Greatness, and God's Kingdom

Be strong. Be Alert. Be Courageous. These words are the premise of this 30 day study where you will uncover God's desire for you to call out to Him and trust He will hear. Not only hear, but set you on sure footing, a path He sets before you, for your sake and the sake of those around you. From there you will dig into Scripture around what it means to courageously step into God's presence, how to do so, and what you can expect as a result of going into His presence. Finally, you will be encouraged to step towards the healing Christ offers, both individually, and as the collective Bride of Christ. Each day you will be encouraged to ask questions, seek answers in God and His Word, and identify the step YOU sense the Holy Spirit compelling you to take. Courage accompanies ACTION, and Christ reveals to us where to move next, while the Holy Spirit empowers us to do so!
