  • One Way To Win: Bet It All

    Contributed by Mark Eberly on May 12, 2009
     | 2,119 views

    ONE WAY TO WIN: BET IT ALL God has the answers that we need. I often see people not trusting in God and truly seeking His face. Worshiping with others and seeking out the answers that we are looking for is often done superficially. We show up once or twice and wonder why "church" doesn't seem to ...read more

    MAYBE GOD WANTS US TO SAY WOW Last week a young man asked me why God made sharks.

I used to wonder why God made mosquitoes ...read more

    I was filling in as pulpit supply years ago, when I was approached by a man after the service. He looked me straight in the eyes and said, “That has to be worst sermon I’ve ever heard.” Then he turned and stormed out of the church. I felt crushed. I’d worked hard on that sermon; praying that it ...read more

    Sin and Hypocrites Some mistakenly think that they are free to sin, just so long as they aren't hypocrites about it, that the worst form of sin is hypocrisy. Often one hears it said, "I know I'm not perfect, but at least I'm not hypocritical about it." A few years ago in Texas there were two men ...read more

    MY WAY OR THE WRONG WAY How many of you remember the game show that used to be on TV called "Let's Make A Deal"?

    Have we held the line? Should those who have died rest easy because we are holding to the values that they were willing to give their lives for? Consider this timeline; "in 1954 churches began to grow silent; by 1963 the Bible and prayer were removed from public schools; by 1965 the sexual ...read more

    I was reading a blog about “who should get the credit” and I wonder if any of you have some of these same ideas.
