    An Outline Of Acts 11:19-30

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jun 29, 2022
     | 2,503 views

    Acts 11:19-30 gives an account of how the Church reached as far away as Antioch, nearly 300 miles from Jerusalem. A group of unknown missionaries went to Antioch, then Barnabas came, and then so did Saul.

    How God Defines Greatness (1 Samuel 18:5-16)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 27, 2024
     | 965 views

    The world defines greatness in terms of achievements and deeds, celebrated today and forgotten tomorrow. God defines greatness as how one lives his life. We see this in David as he continued to follow the will of the LORD.

    Greatness, according to the world's standards, is measured by things such as achievements, status, education, wealth, and individual or corporate contributions to society. While these traits are admirable, they can also be a source of pride, selfishness, self-centeredness, and arrogance. ...read more
