    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 10, 2001
    based on 81 ratings

    Extravagant gestures are an appropriate - even necessary - expression of love.

    Do you know how much it cost? $15,000, that’s how much. And that’s just for the perfume! The bottle she broke was worth nearly that much on its own. I can’t see why Jesus was so upset with us for complaining about the waste. I mean, I saw his point later on, but how could we have known then? ...read more

    I'm Changing The Way I Am Living

    based on 39 ratings
     | 7,973 views

    This sermon is to get the believer to understand that he or she don’t have to live the life they are living. IT’S TIME FOR CHANGE!

    “I’m Changing The Way I Live” The problem with the children of God is that we gain the knowledge of God and never allow the spirit of God to complete the work in us. The carnal mind judges after what it sees, feels and taste. Our conciliation can not be in what we have. To be spiritually minded ...read more

    Any other Gospel doesn’t measure up to the "plumb line" of righteousness. Here are four reasons why.

    Introduction Who can tell me what’s on the screen up there, Or what I’m holding in my hand? It’s a plumb line like the one mentioned in the Isaiah text we just read: So this is what the Sovereign LORD says: "See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a ...read more

    A Biblical Look At Divorce And Remarriage

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Dec 10, 2001
    based on 91 ratings
     | 6,105 views

    This is a study of what the Scriptures teach on the subject of divorce and remarriage. The Church has failed to up-hold God’s design for marriage and has misled many by teaching the permission of divorce and remarriage under the New Covenant.

    It is reported that one in two marriages end in divorce. What begins at a wedding ceremony usually with a minister, parents and friends increasingly ends in a courtroom with a judge, lawyers and strangers. The average marriage now lasts seven years. Fifty-five percent of all Americans say a ...read more

    Many times we wonder if God ever speaks in today’s world, but the real question might be, are we really paying attention?

    In a book called "Directions", James Hamilton writes: Before refrigerators, people used ice houses to preserve their food. Ice houses had thick walls, no windows, and a tightly fitting door. In winter, when streams and lakes were frozen, large blocks of ice were cut, hauled to the ice houses, and ...read more

    "Faith without works is like a song you can’t sing, it’s about as useless as a screen door on a submarine."

    You may have heard our music group sing the song, “Screen Door on a Submarine.” Part of it goes like this: Faith without works is like a song you can’t sing, it’s about as useless as a screen door on a submarine.
