Satan Vs Jesus - Mark 9:14-29 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Dec 29, 2023

If you are a Christian, you probably don’t have the kind of unbelief the boy’s father had—doubting Jesus’ power. But very often we have the kind of unbelief the disciples had. This message will show you how to detect that kind of unbelief in your heart and overcome it.

Mark 9:14 When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them. 15 As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with wonder and ran to greet him. 16 "What are you arguing with them about?" he asked. 17 A ...read more

What You Have Defines Your Worth Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on Jul 14, 2025

The world says your value is measured by what you own—status, wealth, and accomplishments. But God says your worth is found in who you are (your character) and whose you are (your identity in Christ). We are not defined by what we accumulate, but by our foundation in Him.

Sunday Is Here, But Monday Is Coming

Contributed by Peter Mclewin on Mar 18, 2002

At the end of each day of the Holy Week, Jesus withdrew from the city and then returned in the morning with a fresh symbol of who He was. On Monday He used a fig tree to teach a powerful lesson about spiritual fruit.

While in Israel last month (March 2001) I once again had the privilege of walking down the Mount of Olives in a manner similar to that which Jesus did so many years ago on Palm Sunday. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of that view of city. It is, without a doubt, the best approach to the Holy ...read more

Slaughter Of The Innocents

Contributed by Howard Tyas on Jan 7, 2002

Protecting the "newborn child" when the Herods of this world are threatened.
