Would that even be possible?
Ephesians 3:20 says that God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all we can ask or imagine.
Most people would say that the story of Christmas begins with the announcement of the birth of a baby. And they would be right. But when they try to name that baby, they say, “His name was Jesus.” And they are wrong.

You see this in tv adds, magazines, and on computer screens.
Peter Kreeft made this statement; “If lust ceased tomorrow, we would be plunged into the greatest economic depression in history. Remove sex appeal from advertising, advertising from the economy, and the economy from civilization and what would be left?”

Billionaires driving around in Lamborghinis, vacationing in the French Riviera, or hanging out in their New York penthouse.
The one image that doesn’t come to mind is someone going to church.
For most people, materialism is the opposite of spirituality.

Reidsville Baptist ChurchMoving from Fear to Courage Numbers 13 and 14Fear is a natural part of life, but it wasn’t a part of God’s original design.
In the Garden of Eden, Adam had no fear of lions or tigers, or bears, or even cockroaches, if there were any before the fall.
Though fear can be useful, providing a surge of adrenaline that makes us very aware of dangerous situations so we can take appropriate actions, chronic fear can paralyze us from moving forward into the blessed life God intends for us.

Reidsville Baptist ChurchAmazing Grace Nehemiah 9:1-38Our prayers in desperate times reveal much about us.
Nehemiah 9:1-37 is the longest recorded prayer in the Bible outside the Psalms.

However, many believers fail to realize that there call to Christ is also a call to become an essential member of the community of faith, the body of Christ, the church.
Believers become a part of (the people of) God for the purpose of glorifying him in doing the work of God.

You can feel the expectation build as children grow more and more antsy in their classes at school as they wait for the big day to arrive.
