    Contributed by Paul Barreca on Jun 10, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,869 views

    The command to honor our parents is not reserved for childhood obedience. In today's culture of independence and personal choice, Christian adults must learn to show honor to their parents and not abandon them.

    We never stop worrying about our children. That includes our adult children! Our children can bring us the GREATEST JOYS, and also the GREATEST SORROWS. Many Christian parents grieve over.... Unsaved adult children Children who have walked away from the Lord Children hooked on drugs or ...read more

    Apostles' Creed: He Descended Into Hades Series

     | 3,449 views

    1. Jesus joined humanity in mortal life and death. 2. Jesus frees us from fear of loss. 3. Jesus frees us from fear of abandonment.

    APOSTLES’ CREED: He Descended into Hades When we talk about the Apostles’ Creed in membership classes, I ask people if they have questions they want to talk about. Almost always, someone asks about the phrase, “He descended into hell.” What does that mean? Honestly, I don’t know exactly what the ...read more

     | 10,760 views

    Is it winter in your life? Do you feel abandoned and without hope? Let the last words of the Apostle Paul encourage you as he prepared to cast off for the next shore.

    Quite a number of years ago now I saw what was one of the most impacting presentations of my entire life. An actor – Phil Nash – performed a dramatic reading of 2nd Timothy called “Come Before Winter.” It was just him – in costume, alone on the stage with a few props, reciting the book as Paul the ...read more

    Intro: In times of loss and deep grief, our Lord may seem "far away"...but today we can trust in His presence. He also gives us three precious promises to consider today as we mourn the loss of our departed loved one: I. He promises to HEAR us 1. Many well meaning statements have been ...read more

    The Spiritual Saga Of Ishmael And Isaac

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Mar 21, 2001
    based on 109 ratings
     | 8,141 views

    Paul uses the story of Ishmael and Isaac and their mothers to demonstrate that the Galatian believers were in danger of abandoning the Gospel of grace in Jesus, with fascinating contrasts historically and allegorically, ever relevant for today.

    THE SPIRITUAL SAGA OF ISHMAEL AND ISAAC The most casual reader of the Bible will notice that the Scriptures consist of 2 sections - the Old and New Testaments. But have you ever thought how are they related to each other? Someone made the interesting comment about the 2 Testaments that ...read more

    Today, let us celebrate the unity that we share in Christ. Let us abandon pretend unity in favor of living out life together in Christ in genuine Christian community.

    Life Together, Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Introduction In this life, I’ve found that people are a lot like bouncy balls. We spend all of our years bouncing through this life. We are born and bounce our way into our parent’s arms. Then as toddlers we bounce around playrooms and playgrounds, we bounce ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 13,382 views

    We live in a time of confusion and change, where some Christians are abandoning sound doctrine and adopting the views of our culture. Christians should be unwavering in their devotion to the Bible, God's Word!

    I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL Rom. 1:16; 1 Cor. 1:18-25 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: SANCTIFIED TONGUE? 1. A lady wanted to get baptized, so she asked her new preacher how they do it. 2. "We take you into the baptistery pool and immerse you completely for a few seconds." 3. "I'm sorry, pastor, but ...read more

     | 1,527 views

    Many today, seeing Western culture disintegrate as it abandons Christian living and teaching, tell us that serious Christians need to flee the cities and establish new Christian communities of virtue.

    Tuesday of the 33rd Week in Course 2019 Saints Severinus, Exuperius, & Felician The sources tell us that Marcus Aurelius “was Roman emperor from [AD] 161 to 180 and a Stoic philosopher.

    A Mutual Assurance Company

     | 2,778 views

    In order to feel fully at home in the church, we begin with praying for one another, we learn both to receive and to give to one another, and we abandon top-down thinking.

    Isn’t it astounding, the power of the group? Isn’t it amazing that an otherwise normal, there, healthy, together person can be in a group and feel so wrong? Have you ever been in a group that was sending out such negative vibes that you just wanted to get out of there? Somehow you even felt ashamed ...read more

    Follow The Way And The Truth

     | 1,546 views

    We live in troubled times, and too many are afraid, disillusioned, depressed, and generally overwhelmed by current events. It seems like the number who have abandoned the Way, and the Truth is growing.

    We live in troubled times, and too many are afraid, disillusioned, depressed, and generally overwhelmed by what they are seeing and hearing. Our eyes look upon the unimaginable and our ears the receptacle for vile obscenities. You know the people who do these things. You have seen their deeds or ...read more

    Why Was Jesus Born Into A Family That Was Poor?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 5, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 14,092 views

    Luke's gospel tells us that Mary and Joseph offered the poor person's sacrifice when taking Jesus to the Temple. Why would God have chosen for His Son to be born into a poor family?

    TWO YOUNG PIGEONS: Jesus’ family gave the poor offering. - Luke 2:24. - Leviticus 12:8. - Unless you know the Old Testament background, the mention of dove/pigeon offering is one that we would pass right over. We have no frame of reference on what it means. - When we look back in Leviticus, ...read more

    I Am With You When You Are All Alone Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 26, 2020
     | 5,333 views

    The Bible is filled with the stories of flesh and blood people … frail human beings with ordinary human needs who face all of the same kinds of struggles and challenges that we face … which is why we can not only relate to Paul’s discouragement but can learn from his courage as well.

    I want to start out by reading an anonymous poem called “Friendship”: Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought or sold But its value is far greater than a mountain of gold For gold is cold and lifeless It can neither see nor hear And in times of trouble it is powerless to cheer It has ...read more

    When God decided that we would be the Bride of Christ it was not because we came spotless and pristine. No Ezekiel says that when God found us we were abandon in a field and abhorred.

    Longing For The Groom Ezekiel 16: 4-7 One of my favorite parts of being a minister is the ability to participate in weddings. I have participated in weddings in churches, chapels, beaches, backyards, and living rooms, weddings that cost thousand’s of dollars and weddings that cost $100.00. And ...read more
