    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 31, 2020
     | 2,584 views

    This is the first in a series on Mark's account of the life and ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ, focusing on the background, theme, purpose, and testimony of those who were changed by the message and compassion of Jesus, both then and now.

    The Early Church Fathers (A.D. 100-400) affirm that John Mark, first introduced in the book of Acts as a traveling companion of the Apostle Paul and his associate Barnabas, was the author of the Gospel that bears his name. Acts also notes that Mark, young and immature, abruptly left Paul and ...read more

     | 5,507 views

    A church split could have occurred in the Jerusalem church, but it didn't. That's the background of Acts 11:1-21. But a subtext is the role the Word of God played in the entire passage. Thats the subject of this passage.

    What to Do with God’s Word TEXT: Acts 11:1-21 – “And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God. 2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, 3 Saying, Thou wentest ...read more

    based on 68 ratings

    Christians come in all different shapes and sizes. Different backgrounds make it difficult for them to all get along. Patience is the Spirit given quality that helps us fit everyone together into a church that praises God.

    based on 47 ratings
     | 4,511 views

    Dr Wood shows the congregation that a person does not always need to be in the spotlight. God often uses those people who are behind the scenes. Dr. Wood uses Andrew the bother of Peter as his scriptural background.

    1. Importance of a Name Shakespeare asked “What’s in a name” a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Many people, like Shakespeare, would say that a name is not important; however, the importance of a name is paramount. In the Bible the name of a person described their ...read more

    This first chapter of Ruth will help us see that there are great possibilities ahead that we are not aware of. God has been working all along in the background even if all around us is full of darkness and despair.

    We are going to start a new series today in the Book of Ruth. What do we know about that Book of Ruth? For one thing, this short Book consisting of only four chapters and 100 verses is a link between the time of the judges and the kings of Israel. Remember that during the time of the Judges, ...read more

     | 28,107 views

    The background for this parable is that multitudes of publicans and sinners came to hear the Lord Jesus. The Pharisees and scribes began to murmur, to criticize Him because of this. They were shocked that He would welcome them and even eat with them.

    Jerusalem Lesson: Parables of Lost Sheep, Coin, Son (1 Peter 2:25) Luke 15:1-32 This chapter has probably got the best-loved parable that our Lord told; we call it the parable of the Prodigal Son.

     | 3,519 views

    When a church begins growing, and when people of differing backgrounds come together, it can result in chaos without established rules. Properly communicated expectations within a membership covenant can hold people accountable.

    If and when we begin sharing our faith and as we begin gaining spiritual territory for the Lord, then our church will grow as more and more people are added. This means we will be in charge of leading those who are new to our fellowship; and when people of differing backgrounds come together, it ...read more

    Some pick and choose whom they feel is worthy of fellowship; basing their judgments on a person’s skin color, nationality, or gender. Jesus, however, was careful to give everyone a chance to believe in Him, no matter what their background.

    The apostle Paul once said that “there is no partiality with God” (Romans 2:11); and he also declared, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Gal 3:28).

     | 9,644 views

    Jesus called twelve men to serve as disciples. These men came from different backgrounds, varied occupations, and unique personalities. Jesus used ordinary men in extraordinary ways. That should challenge and encourage every believer.

    The Calling of the Twelve Mark 3: 13-21 Surely you would agree that our study thus far has revealed a very busy, and often difficult time for Jesus. His ministry had gained momentum and immense popularity among the common people. Everywhere Jesus went, He was met with large crowds of people, all ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,599 views

    This is a deeper study going along with the Sermon Defusing Anger - it is looking at practical ways to deal with anger. This is to be used in a small group. I want to thank Dr. Stanley and Joyce Meyer along with others for the background of this message.

    Definition of Anger: It is a strong feeling of intense displeasure, hostility or indignation as a result of a real or imagined threat, insult, frustration or injustice done towards yourself or others important to you. (From Dr. Charles Stanley) Anger is a normal emotion with a wide range of ...read more
