What To Do When You're Hiding Out Series

Contributed by James Wallace on May 15, 2020

We've all been hiding out lately--experiencing the greatest mass quarantine in history during the Covid-19 Pandemic. What should we be doing while hiding out? Should we even be hiding out? How should we respond to the boredom, anxiety and fear that comes with a quarantine?

What to Do When You’re “Hiding Out” Psalm 57 We are in the midst of, but hopefully coming to the end of the greatest mass quarantine in human history. When you consider that this is a worldwide Pandemic and stay-at-home orders have included such places as China and India, as well as our own ...read more

A Grateful Heart Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

Charles E. Jefferson said, "If Christians would praise God more the world would doubt Him less." Let us admit it that we seldom make it known how grateful we are to be Christians by our praise of God and thanksgiving before the world.

Thanksgiving is unconditional for the believer. We are not to be thankful only because of blessings, but even in spite of burdens, for life at its worst does not change the most precious truth for which we are to be thankful, and that is salvation through Jesus. There have been Christian people ...read more

Contributed by Dean Morgan on Sep 3, 2004

Whatever Happened To Sin?

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Sep 12, 2010

Preachers once preached against sin and God’s people felt the weight of guilt and shame for their sin. In our world today we have a hard time finding someone willing to admit to sinning. The question must be asked “Whatever has happened to sin?”

There’s a story that after attending church one day, someone apparently asked him what the preacher had preached about. “Sin,” Mr. ...read more

Riding The Fence Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 1, 2011

More times than we would probably like to admit, we slip into legalism. It can happen when God takes too long to answer a prayer, or answers in a way we don't expect. We take over the reigns, and it's a mistake!

To continue Paul’s arguments against legalism he turns again to a story in the Old Testament. This time it is the children that God promised to Abram. The issue is whether you let God fulfill His promise of righteousness in you, or whether you want to take the controls and do it yourself. ...read more

Pride And The Wicked Tenants

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Apr 5, 2025

So often we let our pride get in the way from admitting we were wrong, or to see something from another angle. This morning the Pharisees Pride keeps them from acknowledging Jesus for who he is and provide a cautionary tale for us.
