Who moved my cheese story
Dr. Spencer Johnson wrote the international bestselling book "Who Moved My Cheese?" which uses the metaphor of cheese to teach lessons about dealing with change. The book tells the story of four characters - Hem, Haw, Sniff, and Scurry - who live in a maze and search for cheese. It represents parts of ourselves and how we respond to changes in our lives. The characters demonstrate that in order to be happy, one must be willing to anticipate and adapt to changes, rather than fearing or denying them.

If

While cracks existed, the early church leadership asked the congregation for help. The lessons are to avoid murmuring and get more involved in church work to help prevent people from falling through cracks.
We ought to obey god rather than men

The healing of a beggar

The beggar asked them for money, and Peter said that he had no silver or gold but would give him what he had, which was healing in the name of Jesus Christ.

In his name

1) Marked the beginning of the kingdom/church as promised, with the coming of power from the Holy Spirit;
2) Saw the reversal of the curse of Babel as people from many nations heard the gospel in their own languages; and
3) Signaled an end to the Law of Moses and beginning of the Law of Christ, paralleling but reversing what happened at Mount Sinai.
Waiting in jerusalem
The Central Union Church of Christ document discusses how after Jesus' ascension, the disciples waited in Jerusalem with other believers.

The document encourages readers to make sure their own names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life in order to gain entrance into heaven.

Tell the good news

It notes that over 100,000 people die every day without Christ and cites verses showing Jesus' command to spread the gospel message to all nations. The document expresses an sense of obligation and reward for fulfilling the Great Commission through saving others, as one must not come to Heaven alone but must help others find salvation as well.
Remove your nagging fear
The document discusses how to remove nagging fears and know for sure about salvation. It explains that feelings are uncertain and can produce false confidence or concern. True confidence depends on the Spirit's testimony rather than speculation, and is based on knowledge of what the Spirit commands rather than past accomplishments or failures. Walking in the light through obedience to the Spirit's commands allows one to have assurance despite an inability to remember or recount past good deeds.
What kind of sinner are you
The document discusses different types of sinners, including ignorant sinners who sin out of lack of knowledge, willful sinners who sin deliberately, sinners who make excuses for their sins, religious sinners who focus on outward appearances rather than the heart, and neglectful sinners who fail to heed God's word. It also discusses that all have sinned and fall short of God's glory, but that sinners can be forgiven through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.
Why should i partake of the lord supper every week
The document discusses why Christians should partake in communion every week. It provides four reasons: 1) to eat a meal with Jesus Christ; 2) to have special fellowship with other Christians; 3) to be reminded of one's own weaknesses and sins; and 4) to be convicted that Jesus suffered in their place. The document encourages regular participation in communion.
The blind men and the elephant
The poem describes six blind men who encounter an elephant for the first time and try to describe what it is like by touching different parts of its body. The first feels the side and thinks the elephant is like a wall, the second feels the tusk and thinks it is like a spear, and so on for the trunk, knee, ear, and tail. Each believes their limited experience defines the entire elephant, and they argue loudly without realizing the others have felt different parts. The poem is a metaphor for religious disputes where participants argue without understanding each other's full perspectives.
What is your ministry
The document discusses how in the church, just as the human body has different parts that each play an important role, every member of the church has different gifts and ministries that together allow the body of Christ to grow. It references passages from Romans, 1 Corinthians, and Ephesians to illustrate how Christians should use their individual talents to serve others. The key message is that each person's contribution is valuable, and the church functions best when all members use their gifts faithfully in ministry to one another.
How does god forgive sin
The document discusses how God forgives sin through a substitute, suffering, and settled sacrifice of Jesus Christ that was sufficient to bring people to God. It references a Bible passage about Christ suffering once for sins to serve as a substitute sacrifice, with his one-time suffering acting as a settled means to bring people to God and allow forgiveness of sins.
The miracles of jesus
This document discusses the miracles of Jesus and their purpose. It asserts that Jesus' miracles prove he was sent from God, as no one could perform such miracles unless God was with them. The primary purpose of Jesus' miracles was to prove his divinity as the Son of God, but they also demonstrated his love, pity and concern for suffering humanity. Several Bible verses are presented that describe Jesus' miracles and their effects on people, helping to strengthen faith in him as the promised prophet and Messiah.
Standing near the cross
The document is a sermon from Central Union Church of Christ about standing near the cross based on John 19:23-27. It discusses four people at the crucifixion - Mary Magdalene who found redemption, Salome who received rebuke, Mary the mother of Jesus who was rewarded, and John who was restored and given responsibility. It then includes the lyrics of a hymn about finding love, mercy, and strength from staying near the cross and watching its influence until reaching heaven.
