    Contributed by Brian Atwood on Mar 16, 2007
    based on 99 ratings
     | 38,760 views

    The misinformation about God unnecessarily makes many people far too afraid of Him when they should be seeking Him as their dearest friend.

    Do you remember how, one of the most unpleasant emotions you suffered as a kid was waiting to be punished? Do you remember that? If you had a particularly tender conscience it was especially hard for you. When you did something wrong you just knew you were going to be found out, and you just ...read more

    The call of Christ is for the true believer to "Walk Tall" for the sake of the gospel.

    It is located in Tennessee, on the Mississippi-Tennesee state line, and it is name "McNary County". Many, if not all, will recognize this county by reputation and story if not by name.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 15,739 views

    Of all the things scripture expresses concern about, it is "deception" among God’s crown creation.

    Matthew, Mark and Luke record an interesting verbal interchange between Jesus and His disciples. It concerns the “end of days.” They asked Him, “tell us about the sign of the end.” Jesus’ initial response was almost ominous, “watch that no one deceive you”… Have you ever been deceived? How did ...read more

    John gave his readers to tests to determine the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood. Every generation needs to continue to test the spirits to see if they are from God.

    In the Bible, God speaks to us, and in prayer, we speak to him. And the two are interdependent in their effectiveness. The Scripture teaches us to pray and shows us what to pray and how to pray and tells us the basis for prayer and fills us with encourage

    This is the last Sunday of Prayer Week. The reason we sandwich Prayer Week with a sermon on prayer and a sermon on the word of God is that these are the two great means of grace that God uses to conform us to the image of his Son (Romans 8:29; Colossians 3:10). The Interdependence of Prayer and ...read more

    Restoring The Cars

    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,016 views

    This wonderful section of scripture on the Love of God and our Love for others is explained by way of an extended analogy. God is like a "car guy" who sees a "classic" in a rust bomb. We must have the same eyes when we consider others.

    Have you ever known one of those guys who are into restoring cars? Most of us do. They scour the junkyards and the abandoned farmsteads of the midwest looking for old wrecks. When you we see a dilapidated old rust bomb sitting out in a field with weeds growing through the rusty ...read more
