    What Does It Mean To Be Of Little Faith?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 18, 2025
     | 290 views

    There is something that we should ask ourselves. Do Christians truly have enough faith in today’s society?

    What Does It Mean to Be of Little Faith? Luke 12:28 There are five instances within the New Testament that speak about being “of little faith.” The online Merriam-Webster dictionary defines faith as belief and trust in and loyalty to God, something that is believed with strong conviction. So, with ...read more

     | 87 views

    God still places His mantle on faithful people who submit at God still places His mantle on faithful people who submit at Gilgal, seek at Bethel, persevere through Jericho, and cross Jordan transformed.

    Every culture understands the power of symbolic clothing. When a judge puts on the black robe, authority follows. When a graduate steps across the stage in cap and gown, years of learning find recognition. When a soldier fastens the uniform, identity and duty intertwine. The Bible also speaks of ...read more

    Sleepless In Susa

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 9, 2025
     | 45 views

    God’s providence never sleeps—He orchestrates the unseen, turns delay into deliverance, and transforms sleepless nights into triumphs of His timing.

    Introduction: When God Works the Night Shift History has turned on sleepless nights. On one sleepless night in Babylon, Daniel prayed and an empire shifted. On one sleepless night in Bethlehem, shepherds watched and angels sang. On one sleepless night in Susa, the king tossed and turned— and God ...read more

    To See Thy Face

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 25, 2025
     | 28 views

    Creation will be restored; sin and death ended. God brings humanity home forever. We will see His face and live with Him.

    (The Long Road Home) Home. It’s the one word that can make grown adults swallow hard and stare off into the distance like they just remembered something important.

    What Would Make Heaven Hell?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 26, 2025
     | 111 views

    Heaven is joy only for hearts transformed by Jesus. Without holiness, God’s presence becomes torment. Christ alone gives us a heart fit for heaven.

    Heaven. The word alone sounds like comfort. Endless peace. Reunions. Rest. Joy without sorrow. Life without loss. Every funeral reminds us of it. Every aching heart hopes for it. If you asked the average person today what they believe about eternity, most would say something like, “Oh, sure, I ...read more

    When The Lights Go Out

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 35 views

    Jesus rekindles our passion to shine. His authority sends us, His Spirit empowers us, and His mission becomes our greatest thrill again.

    It happens slowly. You rarely notice when the first lights begin to flicker. A bulb gives up in the back hallway. One more goes dark in the kitchen. The living room dims a little, but you don’t think much about it. You just squint more. You buy a cheaper lamp. You hold your phone screen a little ...read more

    Badges Of Honor

    based on 37 ratings
     | 6,650 views

    This message deals with one of the consequences of following Jesus: Suffering!

    I’m encouraged today by the fact that 12 of our Brethren were not side-tracked by the Success Syndrome. To the Apostles of the First Church of Jerusalem, SUCCESS WAS SUFFERING SERVICE. Which leads me to conclude that the Success of a Person or Church is not determined by Praise but by Pain; not by ...read more
