"the Crown Of Life" Series

Contributed by John Huyser on Jul 18, 2023

This city’s unique relationship with Rome made Smyrna a primary target for persecution. Assuring them he knows what they are about to go through, Christ promises them (and us) the crown of life.

To best understand the letter to Smyrna, we need to understand this city’s close relationship to Rome and the Empire. Compared to the others, Smyrna and Rome are the most closely aligned for good reason. Two hundred years before Christ, Rome was at war with Hannibal and the Carthaginians. That ...read more

Hope For The Ungodly Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 15, 2024

In this exposition of Romans 4:4-8, we see the logic of grace and David's testimony affirming justification by faith. This way of salvation is something the angels desire to look into and something that will bring everlasting glory to God.

Intro Follow with me as we read Romans 4:1-3: “What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? 2 If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. 3 What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, ...read more

On The Edge Of Greatness!

Contributed by Brandon Max on Jan 19, 2022

Israel found themselves "On The Edge Of Greatness" as they stood on the shores of the river Jordan. However, only Joshua and Caleb had 1) Heart to see God's Great Vision, 2) Faith to hold to God's Great Promises, and 3) Hope to look for God's Great Results.

Three Strikes, You're Out! Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Aug 27, 2007

Israel missed each opportunity God gave them. Each time Amos interceded, God held off on afflicting them. Finally, He had enough—He afflicted them with almost complete destruction. God is faithful to respond to the intercessory prayers of His people.

1. The first pitch was a fastball of grace. 2. The second pitch was a fastball of mercy. 3. The third pitch was a changeup of affliction.

Have You Eaten?

Contributed by Curt Cizek on Jul 31, 2009

In parts of China, to ask a person how they are doing you ask them "Have you eaten?" Jesus gave the people bread to eat but He wanted to give them even more. He wanted to give them The Bread of Life that would satisfy their every need.
