    Since You're Following Jesus . . . Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 14, 2021
     | 2,811 views

    If you're going to keep the faith, it's necessary to keep the love of Christ as well, especially for one another, and some folks who are likely to be neglected or forgotten. The lifestyle choice is between worldly lust and Christ-lke love.

    Jeanie and I watched several segments of the History Channel’s “The Men Who Built America” this past week. We had watched parts of it before and had always wanted to watch it again as a gave a great history about how America has become the land of opportunity it has come to be. However, as we ...read more

    How To Find The Good Shepherd Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 8, 2021
     | 3,387 views

    The world is a very dangerous place spiritually, full of wolves that come to us in sheep's clothing, evil shepherds masquerading as good shepherds. How do we find the Good Shepherd? How do we determine the difference between good shepherds and bad? Jesus provides insight in John 10.

    If you’re only casually familiar with the Bible, you might be surprised to find out that one of the major themes of the New Testament is false teachers. Under this general category fall false shepherds, false prophets and false apostles. You see, the Bible claims to be the truth about God and ...read more

     | 3,771 views

    Some of you here are familiar with Alex Smith, because he was for a number of years the starting quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. But what many of you may not know is that Alex Smith was recently named the NFL’s 2020 Comeback Player of the Year But the award was actually an ...read more

    How To Follow Jesus--Though Persecuted Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 8, 2021
     | 2,228 views

    How we regard difficulties and persecutions will have everything to do with whether we respond positively or negatively to them. Surprising to us, the very things designed by men to destroy faith cause it to thrive, when we have a godly attitude.

    Jeanie and I recently read a book with a provocative name—The Insanity of God—by the pseudonymous author Nip Ripken. Of course, the title elicits the question, what is insane about God—a question the author never directly answers, but only becomes evident upon contemplation of his message. It ...read more

    How To Be Used Of God Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on May 12, 2021
     | 3,886 views

    Incredibly, God can use our disabilities, as well as our abilities for His glory. A man born blind discovers this and it changes both his life and his destiny? How can God use you in a similar way?

    Last week, in John 8, we saw how Jesus concluded his great and brutal debate with his avowed enemies, the Jewish religious leaders of his generation. He had begun the debate with the statement in the temple that He was the light of the world. He concluded it by making what I believe to be ...read more

    What Faith Looks Like Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on May 11, 2021
     | 4,627 views

    This is a reality check. When you're surprised by the challenges of the Christian life and even tempted to quit, consider how the people who are part of Faith's Hall of Fame lived.

    This past week we all heard about another horrific tragedy on the border. Three people died and 25 were injured as smugglers attempted to bring dozens of illegal immigrants into the U.S. via boat along the California Coast. The 40-foot boat broke up on a reef just west of Point Loma off the San ...read more

    How To Endure To The End Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on May 4, 2021
     | 6,841 views

    Jesus assured us in the Parable of the Sower that people falling away from the faith would be a regular part of our experience. However, we certainly don't want it to be our personal experience! An oft-ignored & challenging warning tells us how we can prevent that possibility.

    As we have made our way through the book of Hebrews, the single New Testament book devoted to the topic of Christians who are tempted or actually do fall away from the faith, I naturally have been led to sadly contemplate those Christians I have known who have fallen away. These, tragically, were ...read more

    Contributed by James Wallace on Apr 28, 2021
     | 3,401 views

    The Heart of the Message to the Hebrews is how to be faithful to Jesus. How can we demonstrate in practical ways our faithfulness to Jesus in light of His faithfulness to us?

    I had an unexpected very emotional experience this past week. At a little after 6 on Tuesday morning I came to page 884, the last page of probably the longest book I have ever read apart from the Bible. As I’ve mentioned previously, I have been reading the massive scholarly work written by ...read more

    Your Response To The Word Of Christ Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Apr 19, 2021
     | 2,791 views

    How do you respond to the Word of Jesus? Is following Jesus an obedience-optional exercise for you? If it is, you stand to lose a great blessing--the freedom that only being a true follower of Jesus can provide.

    Last week I asked you a critical question: What must a person believe, in particular about Christ, to be sure of going to heaven The answer, of course, is that person must believe He is God, very God of very God, the God-Man. This morning I’m going to ask you another compelling question: What ...read more

     | 3,712 views

    Walking in the dark can be a dangerous thing, both physically and spiritually. Jesus explains that He is the light that shines in the darkness. How can we all appropriate that light to show the way in our own lives?

    How To Deal With Sin And Guilt Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Apr 19, 2021
     | 3,053 views

    Many options in the religious and secular world are given for how to deal with our everyday experience of sin, the guilt it brings and the dread of potential ultimate condemnation. The Book of Hebrews is adamant that there is only one solution for sin, and no other substitutes.

    The great American psychiatrist Karl Menninger, author of the book, Whatever Became of Sin, once stated that if he could convince patients in psychiatric hospitals that their sins were forgiven, 75% of them could walk out the next day. His statement underscores the struggle that all of us human ...read more

    The New Covenant is in effect the last and will and testament of the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ's redemption under the New Covenant saves even Old Covenant believers. No new sacrifices are needed!

    Sixty–seven-year-old Tomas Martinez was living on the street in Santa Cruz de le Sierra, Bolivia, when he was approached by police officers who had good news for him. His ex-wife (whom he had abandoned years earlier) had died and had left him her fortune of $6 million. However, Martinez thought the ...read more

     | 4,769 views

    When the apostles first heard of the resurrection of Jesus, the words seemed as nonsense to them. How can you make sense of the Resurrection? Take the four steps they did!

    Luke 24:8-35; 44-46 Main Idea: RE: Jesus’ Resurrection: Investigate, Evaluate, Believe & Adjust Your Life Accordingly For the last 6 months, I’ve been somewhat obsessed with the supernatural—miracles in history.

    What The World Needs Now Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 31, 2021
     | 3,769 views

    What the World Needs Now "is love, sweet, love." But what does that kind of love look like, especially in the context of the great sin? Jesus provides us with a powerful lesson about the kind of love we need to receive and offer to others.

    Most of us here are familiar with that hit song written by Burt Bacharach, “What the World Needs Now.” And of course, as bad as I am with notes, I’m even worse with lyrics, but in this case, I do remember the next few words—“Is love, sweet, love.” And admittedly, the song strikes a chord with ...read more

    The Key To Heaven: Christ's Sacrifice Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 29, 2021
     | 2,784 views

    What was the Old Covenant really all about? Did the Old Testament sacrificial system really take away sins? Why isn't Judaism also a way to be right with God? Hebrews 9:1-14 settles these issues, once and for all.

    This last year has been a revelation—a revelation about how you deal with a very contagious and infectious virus that has impacted the entire world and killed millions of people. The big question this past year has been this: How do you stop the virus? How do you prevent it’s spread? How do ...read more
