    Holding On To Christmas

    Contributed by Jim Caswell on Dec 7, 2016
     | 4,000 views

    How are we as followers of Jesus to react to the "Christmas War" that is going on in our society? We find the answer in 1 Peter 3.8-16. We must be careful as followers of Christ to reveal His way not ours.

    The Witness Stand

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Jun 15, 2011
     | 5,808 views

    Everything we do as Christians witnesses to others who we are and what we believe. We cannot avoid our "witness stand" as Christains.

    THE WITNESS STAND Text: I Peter 3:13 - 22 "A man went out to a river for a time of quiet meditation one morning. During his meditation he noticed that the river was rising as well as a scorpion that was trapped in the roots of a tree. He tried to release the ...read more

    Was Jesus Married?

    Contributed by Mark Stepherson on Sep 22, 2012
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,117 views

    A response to claims that "evidence" that Jesus was married is “apt to send jolts through the world of biblical scholarship - and beyond.”

    Was Jesus Married? “Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.” 1 Timothy 4:7 “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” 1 Peter 3:15 Popular characters tend to be used, ...read more

     | 5,652 views

    This sermon outlines five ways in which Christians can present the Gospel message to unbelievers in a God-fearing manner.

    ANSWERING THE SKEPTICS So far we have answered some really difficult questions that are often posed by non-believers. First, how can God be just when he allows the innocent to suffer and second, is our faith blind. Today we are going to look at the third difficult question: Question #3: How ...read more

    How To Give A Defense For Your Hope

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 10, 2013
     | 5,809 views

    We're supposed to be prepared to give a defense for the hope that is within us. But how are we to go about that? Using Paul's defense in Acts 26 we'll lay the ground work for sharing your hope with others.

    In Acts 26:1-23, the apostle Paul is standing before King Agrippa and makes a compelling defense for the hope that was in him (Acts 26:1 ESV, 21:6; 1 Peter 3:15). As we read his defense (or sermon if you will,) we’ll learn some valuable tips that will help us all in presenting a defense for ...read more

    Christianity Solidified By Apologetics In The Early Days Of The Church

    In the Church today, a debate rages over the relationship of philosophy and theology to one another. Some scholarly believers as epitomized by Norman Geisler argue that, since this world is God's world, both can be used to understand Creation if each of these disciplines are approached from a ...read more

    If you take away anything from Stephen’s message today, it should be this: Jesus is all you need. Say it with me: “Jesus is all I need.” Say it again: “Jesus is all I need!”

    If you saw Stephen on the streets of Jerusalem or in the market, he probably wouldn’t seem very different from you or me. A good man … a good neighbor … a good friend … a hard worker … always ready to help. Maybe a good husband … we don’t know if he was married or not. Lately he had been ...read more

    Jesus came to seek and save the lost. As His followers, who are trying to be like Him, we also must be engaged in seeking and saving the lost.

    Introduction: A. The endeavor of evangelism is one that is so very close to the heart of God. 1. On one occasion, when Jesus was clarifying His purpose and mission, He said, “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19:10) 2.

    The glitter of the "General's" stars are blinding others from seeing their place in the kingdom.

    In this generation everyone wants to be a general in God’s army. Prophecies abound that tell people they will be rich and finance the Kingdom. They will have a worldwide dynamic ministry. They will win thousands to the Lord and so on. No one seems to get a prophetic mission to be a good ...read more
