    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Apr 15, 2025
     | 771 views

    Everyone faces times of adversity but it is how we view and respond to the adversity that determines how those times will affect us. The disciples experienced this when Jesus was arrested and crucified. Their response can teach us about responding to adverse times.

    Joshua 5 shows God dismantling the inner battles that keep resurfacing, calling us from self-struggle to surrender on holy ground where victory begins.

    Taking God For Granted

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 27, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 160 views

    Are we truly devoted to God whole heartedly no matter what? Or are we only Christianity to see what's in it for us? Are we taking God for granted or are we humble before him? Today, I want us to search our souls and our hearts for the answers to these questions as we dive into the Gospel.

    The problem with our world today is not with a God who has never failed and is faithful from generation to generation. The problem in the world today are the hearts of evil men who take God for granted. And today, we turn to Psalms 78, and we see a chapter in Israel's history in which, time ...read more
