Followers Of Jesus

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 18, 2022

It's nice to stand on the fringes of what Jesus is doing and watch good things. But remember that he just might call you to jump in to some form of service.

For the last several weeks we’ve followed the course of just 24 hours in Jesus’ life. It was an amazing time. It started on the Sabbath day. He preached in the synagogue at Capernaum, cast a demon out of a heckler there, went home to Peter’s house and healed Peter’s mother-in-law in the ...read more

The Drawing

Contributed by Sean Dees on Mar 1, 2022

We need to be drawing near to God not buttering up to God just to "Get Something".

From this passage we read that God desires a relationship an intimate relationship with His creations.

Joseph: An Example Of Salvation Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 17, 2021

Joseph, serving as Jesus’ earthly father figure, was an exemplary father. He was not only an excellent role model for his son, but within Joseph lies a certain character trait, which just happens to be Jesus’ strongest attribute.

The Christian singer Michael Card wrote a piece entitled Joseph’s Song. To begin this morning, I am going to read a few lines from this song. Listen closely, and from what you know about Joseph from the Bible, think about whether these words could have come from Joseph’s own heart: Lord I know ...read more

Commitment … The Missing Ingredient

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 5, 2022

From time to time, most of us, have begun to eat something that was set before us, and before we took our first bite, not the second or third, we noticed something was missing, and we said, “Someone forgot to add the salt!”

As we begin to read the first chapter of the book of Acts, not the second or third, but the first chapter, and we compare the New Testament church to the modern church, we are aware that something is missing. We cannot help but ask, “Where is the evidence of those things that so characterized the ...read more
