    Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Feb 9, 2022
     | 1,281 views

    In a time when forces of evil are seeking to ruin our minds, remember that our responsibility is always to uphold sacred truth. To successfully bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5), we need to have a tremendous faith in every aspect of God.

    Introduction. There is a philosophy that has been expounded and continues to be expounded today that denies the existence of God and insists that “man in the measure of all things.” We call this philosophy “humanism,” but it is no more than what we used to call “atheism.” This philosophy has almost ...read more

We can’t go a day without hearing about some new statistic about the death rates in “CHIRAQ” or Chicago or about another ISIS moment in the Middle East. For many of ...read more

     | 5,131 views

    when dealing with trick questions, one needs to attack the basis of the question rather than trying to answer the question.

    Whose Wife is She? Luke 20:27-38 There is more to a question than the question itself. Sometimes they aren’t really looking for an answer. The classic question of this sort is “When did you stop beating your wife?” One immediately sees the trap in this question. No matter how one answers the ...read more

    Our Own Cross To Bear

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Mar 7, 2026
     | 59 views

    We like the idea of following Jesus—until we hear Him talk about a cross. In Our Own Cross to Bear, we consider Jesus’ call to deny ourselves and discover that the life we try to protect is the very life we lose. The life we surrender to Christ is the one we truly find.

    Our Own Cross to Bear Mark 8: 34-38 I. Introduction I have to be honest. Preparing this message has been a challenge. It’s a hard word, but it is Jesus explaining the very heart of discipleship. The words Jesus spoke that day to his disciples and to the crowd are just as pertinent to discipleship ...read more
