    This message looks at an account of how encouragement was extended to a young man who had made a mistake, and reveals that encouragement is greatly beneficial in our endeavors at expanding the Lord’s kingdom.

So, what is encouragement? Well, it’s defined as “the act of giving courage, or confidence of success.”(1) I ...read more

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 31, 2020
     | 2,649 views

    This is the first in a series on Mark's account of the life and ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ, focusing on the background, theme, purpose, and testimony of those who were changed by the message and compassion of Jesus, both then and now.

    The Early Church Fathers (A.D. 100-400) affirm that John Mark, first introduced in the book of Acts as a traveling companion of the Apostle Paul and his associate Barnabas, was the author of the Gospel that bears his name. Acts also notes that Mark, young and immature, abruptly left Paul and ...read more

    Did the Apostle Paul have enemies? He sure did! I never thought about it before, but I think he had many opponents (enemies) because His preaching must have ruffled many feathers. I love him because I love the books of the Bible he wrote and the stand he took for Jesus Christ.

    Silas Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 31, 2021
     | 7,117 views

    Not everyone liked what Paul and Silas were doing, so they imprisoned them. Despite all the intricate and demanding things they experienced, they never complained. On the contrary, songs of praise were heard from the darkest dungeon where they were being held.

    Silas Paul settled in Antioch, where he continued to work with the people to live a happy life by the gospel. However, Paul felt that the Holy Spirit was working in the Church, so that it was time to go out and spread the gospel of Jesus. So he went out to be a missionary, and on one of his ...read more
