     | 4,316 views

    Some people consider qualifications earned in conventional educational institutions like primary, secondary, polytechnic or university as the best platform capable of opening doors of greatness to any man. That may be true in some respects but not necessarily so in all circumstances!

    Finding Forgiveness

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,184 views

    The funny thing about forgiveness is that it doesn’t just set them free, it sets you free, too. It frees you from the acid of resentment. It allows the wound to begin healing.

    Mary Karr’s uncle had endured all he could stand! The tall Texan grabbed his chain saw and began to split his own house into two halves. He was sick and tired of living with such an unforgiving woman to whom he had not spoken in months. He had enough. He divided his house and moved her portion ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,106 views

    Here is my adaptation of a sermon contributed by Tim Zingale, Sermon Central, Sept. 2007, "The Rabbit". The focus of my adaptation is the declining vitality of the universal Christian church resulting from having lost sight of Christ, the cornerstone of God's redemptive church.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) One day, a young disciple of Christ who wanted to become everything that God had in mind for him visited the home of an elderly Christian seeking his advice. He had heard that ...read more

    We Are Gomer

     | 15,061 views

    James Montgomery Boice calls the enacted parable of Hosea and Gomer "the second greatest story in the Bible," a depiction of God's embracing, pardoning grace. In it we see that We are Gomer.

    We enact a parable of grace every time we observe the Lord's Supper. Another living parable was dramatized by Hosea the prophet. He was told by God to marry a wayward women who would prove to be unfaithful. He did so, to depict God's grace. It was not unusual for God to ask His prophets to do ...read more

    People won't always like us and they shut us out, but Jesus will not reject us.

    There are people in this world who just never fit in, who never find a place, who never get invited. Charlie brown for instance. Here’s a typical scene from his life: Charlie Brown is walking along when he approaches two girls. One of them says, “Well, what are you doing here?” Then both girls ...read more

    Big Cross Or Little Crosses, But No Other Path To Joy

    Abraham did not have to show his faith by slaying his only Son, Isaac. God the Father, however, did not hold onto His only Son, Christ Jesus, but accepted His sacrifice.

    Second Sunday in Lent 2024 St. Mark’s Gospel tells us today that “after six days” Jesus and His three lead apostles went up a high mountain. Why is “six days” important to remember? We need to go back to the previous chapter to see. The story line follows St. Matthew’s Gospel very closely, which ...read more

    This is a Bible study lesson, not a sermon. The Bible studies teach foundational truth that are designed to challenge, encourage and, most importantly, flame the fire of hunger in the Christian who wants to learn more about who they have become in Christ Jesus.

    One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. This message is about the importance of speaking in agreement with God.
