Pilate Standing Before Jesus Series
Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 13, 2026
A lot of people think that Jesus was on trial here before Pilate. But that’s not true. It was Pilate who was on trial before Christ. What did that mean for Pilate... and what could it mean for us?
Pontius Pilate Did Not Exist (pause). Let me repeat: Pontius Pilate did not exist. Well at least, that’s what a lot of atheists and critics of Scripture USED to say. They knew that Pilate’s name showed up about 55 times in the Bible, but they gleefully pointed out that (at that time) there was ...read more

Jesus Prays At The Gethsemane
Contributed by Scott Maze on Mar 18, 2026
Jesus did what any real human being would do. He said, “I don’t want this. Let me out. I don’t want to die. Let this cup pass from me.” In effect, Jesus banged on the door to heaven, and it didn’t open. He says to the Father, “Father, I don’t think I can handle it. Let this cup pass from me.”
It’s late on Thursday, and we find Jesus just hours away from His arrest. Again, it is Thursday night, and we are approaching midnight. Jesus and the Disciples have just finished the Last Supper. It is a week that has been full of last things: Jesus’ last visit to the temple, His last sermon, His ...read more

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Mar 18, 2026
We live in a world that celebrates self, questions truth, mocks holiness, and often treats the name of Jesus as either a slogan to be borrowed or a name to be resisted. And into that atmosphere, the Word of God comes to us with divine clarity, holy tenderness, and triumphant authority.
Greater Within: Following Jesus with Confidence in a Hostile World Introduction — When the World Feels Loud, Dark, and Overwhelming We are living in a century of noise. There is noise in the culture.

Right Side Up In An Upside-Down World
Contributed by David Dunn on Mar 18, 2026
Isaiah’s vision shows a world reordered by God’s presence—where people are drawn upward, transformed inwardly, and invited to walk in His light today.

And into that kind of world— Isaiah gives us a vision… Of what it looks like to live right side up. - - - - - - - - The world doesn’t ...read more
