Handling Bullies (video)

By Church, Preaching
When I was in grade school, if someone wanted to bully me – they had to corner me on playground and steal my milk money. Today, a bully doesn’t have to be physically present. We have social media, texting, and trolling. And it’s not limited to our kids. As adults, we have our bullies, too. As a Christian, I believe in God as our Creator. As our Creator, he understands human nature better than anyone else. In God's eyes, it’s better to be a peacemaker than a troublemaker.Watch more videos at the Mountainview YouTube channel.

Jesus Died for Us (video)

By Church, Preaching
The heart of the gospel is that Christ died for us. The message of Christianity is not about what we do for God but what he has done for us. What makes this message even more remarkable is that “Christ died for the ungodly” and “while we were still sinners.” In other words, he didn’t reward us for our good behavior. It’s important to note that it is God who took the initiative: “God demonstrates his own love for us.” We respond in faith to what God has already done.Watch more videos at the Mountainview YouTube channel.

Saying Yes to God

By Church, Preaching
The two most basic words in the English language are also two of the most powerful … yes and no. When Tonya said yes to my marriage proposal, that yes has impacted every day of my life for over thirty years. The word no can change your life, too. You probably have a few yes/no stories of your own. A vibrant spiritual life is one that says YES to God more than it says NO.Watch more videos at the Mountainview YouTube channel.
