Pastor James W Greer - Journey Church - Resurrection Road: Power Under Pressure


 The Secret Christians. (Matthew 27:57-66, NKJV; John 19:38, NKJV)

Joseph of Arimathea was a secret disciple of Jesus. There will come a time when you will have to make a choice who you will follow, Jesus or the world. Joseph, the secret disciple of Jesus, was showing more courage than any of the other disciples. There will come a time in your life when you will have to have the courage to confess Jesus before men. (Matthew 10:32-33, NKJV; Philippians 2:9-11, NKJV)


Jesus was simply borrowing Joseph’s tomb. (Matthew 27:59-61, NKJV)

There were very few people left at the tomb with Jesus. Jesus had already lived a sinless life and made a great impact. Make a difference while you are alive, good works will then follow you to Heaven. (Revelation 14:13, NKJV)

Anything that you do to help get people saved will be rewarded.

Many Christians spend their lives trying to be good, but not doing good.

For the Christian, it matters what you do before the funeral.

You can’t keep a good man down. (Matthew 27:62-64, NKJV)

They did not believe Him but still feared Him. The problem was not the deception but the truth; it’s the truth that will set you free. There is big difference between deception and perception.

Deception – misleading, intentionally misleading, falsehood. (Revelation 12:9, NKJV; John 8:44, NKJV)Perception – knowledge gained, becoming aware of. (John 8:32, NKJV)

When you are trying to find security in anything but Christ you will always be insecure.

(2 Peter 1:3-4, NIV)

Biblical security can be found in knowing who you are and Who’s you are. Security and worth come from the inside out, not outside in. Security and worth does not come from what you have, how you dress, where you live what your I.Q. is, but who you are in Christ.

You are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Discover Gallup, New Mexico: Where Native Culture Meets Route 66 History | A Cross-Country Odyssey

Image
Photos and Story by Ken Hulsey  A great deal of my life has centered around traveling on or living near Route 66. In the early 70s, my family traveled the famed highway at least twice a year, traveling from California to Texas to visit family. For thirteen years, I lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where the old highway cuts the city down the middle, and then several years later, I would find myself in Victorville, California, where again Route 66 was once the lifeblood of the town.

Unraveling the Web: Why 'Spider-Noir' is the Ultimate Nostalgic Thrill Ride! Written By Ken Hulsey Terri and I have a new show that we are hooked on, and we stumbled upon it quite by accident. I was actually searching on Amazon Prime for a new documentary series for both of us to watch since we had just finished watching two really good ones by Ken Burns, Louis & Clark, and The American Buffalo, and the advertising for Spider-Noir ( Watch now on Prime Video ) was the first thing that popped up. I was waiting on Terri to finish up in the kitchen, so I watched the trailer for the show and immediately became interested.

Bunkie: A Tale of Decline and Missed Opportunities in Central Louisiana | A View from the Wrong Side of the Tracks

Image
Photos and Story by Ken Hulsey Like many towns in central Louisiana, Bunkie was once thriving; however, today it is merely a shadow of its former self. Prosperity in Bunkie appears to depend on which side of the Union Pacific Railroad one is on. If you're on the west side, you are still hanging on by a thread; if you are on the east side of the tracks, you find yourself in a literal ghost town. This area is marked by an endless row of failed businesses and abandoned buildings. Unfortunately, the business district is gone and will likely never return.
