Reality Check (It’s Too Good To Close Your Eyes)
Length: 5 minutes
People without Jesus need constant “escapes from reality.” They try to drown out the reality of their world with things like drugs, alcohol, parties, TV, video games, vacations, and even sleep. They are happiest when they are not remembering the real world, but for a believer, it’s all the contrary. We are happiest when our eyes are opened to our world.

Don’t Turn Back
Length: 6 minutes
Since Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, God had been teaching the Jewish people the gospel. One of the manifestations of their belief in the gospel was God’s promise that they would inherit the land of Canaan.

Young Like Jesus – Part 3: Oldness Is For Sinners
Length: 5 minutes
In our last part, we saw that aging, hurt, and weakness is just corruption that came into the world because of Adam’s sin. Everyone was initially born of Adam, and because everyone was born into his sin, they were also born into this corruption. But all of this is old news for a believer. Most Christians overlook the fact that Jesus cleansed us of the very sin which is the root of corruption. Now He gave us His righteousness instead, which only causes life to our bodies!
