Unbelievable Scars

Contributed by K. Heath Mcdougal-Deans on Apr 20, 2021

The grandmother, trying to rescue the little boy asleep upstairs, perished in the smoke and flames. A crowd gathered around the burning house.

Mothers Of Messiah-Bathsheba Of Jerusalem Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on May 14, 2021

The Scriptures don't say much about Bathsheba except what's mentioned in connection with her relationship with David and his family. Even so, she had the privilege of being one of the mothers of the Messiah.

Introduction: The line of Messiah Jesus began with Abraham, then Isaac, followed by Jacob and Jacob’s son Judah. Of course each man had children by his wife; except for Judah’s twin sons Pharez and Zerah who were born to his daughter-in-law Tamar of Canaan (see Genesis 38). Rahab was a prostitute ...read more

Death separates us from someone we love and oftentimes causes pain of grief! This sermon helps us understand Elizabeth Kubler-Ross's stages of grief and biblical's response to them.
