    Where is your hope this Christmas? If your hope is in Jesus, you’ll never be disappointed. The true hope of Christmas is for yesterday, today and tomorrow.

    Well, Thanksgiving is over. The table is cleared and everything’s gone except the leftovers. You know what that means, don’t you? I know what it means in my house.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,632 views

    December 1989: We choose not to participate in mission and ministry because we do not want to look foolish. Jesus transforms looking foolish into a redemptive model.

    Most of us, especially in our younger years, spend an awful lot of effort in trying not to look foolish. Most of us, particularly when we are young and growing and think our bodies are all out of proportion anyway, will go to great lengths to hide our deficiencies and keep from looking foolish. ...read more

     | 13,533 views

    With the greatest gift ever given, the gift of God’s Son, we have received the gift of hope.

    When Christ came to this earth as a baby born in Bethlehem, He came to a world that was without hope. But He brought hope. Hope is a precious commodity in human life. What a contrast of emotions there is between the words, “hopeless” and “hopeful.” The Bible uses both ideas. “Hopeless” describes ...read more

     | 5,264 views

    The love of God is set to avert the curse.

    UNWRAPPING GEMS IN MALACHI The “burden” of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi is “I have loved you” (MALACHI 1:1-2). Why has the LORD set His love on His people? Well, according to Moses, He loves us because He loves us (Deuteronomy 7:7-8)! It is not our love to God that saves us, but ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,144 views

    Friends, this is where we find our joy everyday not just at Christmas. We find our joy in trusting God at His word and in trusting God to intervene in our lives when He wants and with whatever He wants.

    The Virgins Joy Luke 1:26-56 During the Christmas season how, why, when, where and to whom we express our joy can cover a lot of territory. It really depends on what kind of joy we are expressing and what has motivated the outpouring of our joy. We might be really joyful to discover that we ...read more

    Why Did God Take 6 Days To Make Everything? Gen. 1:1, 2:1-3

    Contributed by Luke Vasicek on Aug 3, 2025
     | 142 views

    God exists, He made everything in 6 literal days, and he utilized patterns to do so. He utilized patterns because He delights in them. Our life is happier and easier if we embrace His patterns in our daily life.

    Why did God Take 6 Days to Make Everything? Gen. 1:1, 2:1-3 1. God Made _Everything_ (1:1) A. God Exists, and it’s _Clear_. Honestly, it’s rather obvious. “It is so obvious, so salient, so clear that God exists, that the Bible assumes it in Genesis 1:1. To deny this basic tenet of life is to ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,291 views

    Those who deny the truth of the resurrection are teaching a different gospel to that which we find in the New Testament.

    I BELIEVE IN THE RESURRECTION. 1 Corinthians 15:1-34. Sometimes it is necessary for Christian people to get back to the basics of their faith, to remind themselves what they are about. Here in 1 Corinthians, Paul is not teaching his readers something new, but reviewing that which he taught them ...read more
