Right Side Up In An Upside Down World Series

Contributed by Mark Opperman on Oct 1, 2015

Rather than giving a list of ideals to strive for, Jesus was showing the people how widely available God’s kingdom was – even for ordinary, poor, ignorant, imperfect, despised people. The beatitudes describe their struggle & grace to thrive in adversity.

Right Side Up in an Upside Down World Intro: The more I study the Sermon on the Mount, esp. the Beatitudes, the less prescriptive and the more descriptive they become to me. Here is what I mean by that. Last week as I shared them, I introduced the first one (poor in spirit) as a requirement for ...read more

Fathers Day

Contributed by Anthony Stander on Jun 21, 2021

The message Paul gave to the Church in Corinthia is the same message he would give to the modern day Church, to the men of the Church- be watchful of demonic attacks, stand fast like Christians in a fallen world, behave like men at all times and be strong always.

FATHERSDAY 1Co 16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. The message Paul gave to the Church in Corinthia is the same message he would give to the modern day Church, to the men of the Church- be watchful of ...read more

Charting A New Course

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 28, 2021

Many people choose to live in the valley of indecision. Deciding not to choose, is still a decision. Unless you are willing to cross over Jordan, we cannot become who God is calling us to be and never possess what God desires for us.

Scripture: Joshua 3:1-11 “And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they removed from Shittim, and came to Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over. 2 And it came to pass after three days, that the officers went through the host; 3 And they commanded the ...read more

Who Do You Think You Are, Goliath? (1 Samuel 17: 1-54)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 22, 2024

One of the unfortunate realities about living in this world is the existence of bullies who intimidate and threaten others. The Bible describes one such bully named Goliath. His threats against Israel and God ceased when he encountered David and one smooth stone.

Bullies have existed in this fallen world ever since Cain killed Abel at the beginning of civilization (Genesis 4:8). However, as the days get darker spiritually and the love of people grows cold (Matthew 24:12; Romans 1:18-32), the problem of bullying is only going to grow like a cancer across ...read more

Why Do Some People Promote Psalm 83 In Our Days As A War? Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 20, 2023

Because of the current war in Gaza caused by hateful Islamic terrorists, some people are writing on Psalm 83 saying it is a prophetic Psalm that means a war is coming. I am writing to refute that idea. Some people get agitated in pushing a war but Psalm 83 is not prophecy.

WHY DO SOME PEOPLE PROMOTE PSALM 83 IN OUR DAYS AS A WAR? One of the most uncertain writings in the bible is Psalm 83. I never used to hear anything about this Psalm a few years ago, but now a few people are making reference to it. Some are going as far as to say this is a prophetic event that ...read more

Of all the discipline given by Jesus, forgiveness maybe the most difficult. Forgiveness require every person to accept individual responsibility, but believers can be good at it!

Seven times?” 22 “No, not seven times,” Jesus replied,“but seventy times seven! 23“Therefore, the Kingdom of Heaven can be compared to a king who ...read more

Sing!

Contributed by Dennis Fox on Jan 9, 2023

Ever wonder why the Angles are singing? Hymns are actually a very powerful prayer. In fact, a song, a Christmas Carol, was even able to stop a war. The power of songs of praise can change hearts and boost our faith.

One of my favorite things to do at Christmas as a child was a couple days before, my little brother and I would have a large candle, and we would go from house to house with a hymnal and go caroling. We would pick a few of our favorites like Silent Night, Oh Come O Ye Faithful, and Joy to the ...read more
