Heroes Of The Bible: Moses Series

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Feb 19, 2022

The Bible is full of heroes! They don't wear spandex or fly around in capes and cowls, but God empowered these heroes and heroines to accomplish some pretty amazing feats that can inspire us to become heroes of God ourselves. Our next hero is Moses. (Alliterated Outline, PowerPoint)

The Death Of Moses Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 6, 2022

Moses is great, but he taught us one is coming worthy of greater honor. God used a tiny baby drawn from the water to deliver Egypt. One day God will send the messiah, Jesus Christ to deliver His people from sin.

Deuteronomy 34 is the section of the Pentateuch (first 5 books of the Bible written by Moses) that Moses did not write because Moses could not have written the section about his own death. This section is attributed to Joshua. Moses died at the age of 120 years old. Read Deuteronomy 34 It took ...read more

Jesus Feeds His Hungry People

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 15, 2021

When we go to God through Christ, we will never walk away hungry. When we draw near to God with our whole heart, we will never walk away, disappointed. Because for us, our faithful Saviour will always provide enough—more than enough.

If you’ve recently prayed the Lord’s Prayer, then you made the request to your Father in heaven that He would give you this day “your daily bread.” I wonder if that’s a petition we make with a lot of sincerity. Are we really concerned about getting what we need to maintain our bodies? Is there ...read more

Zechariah: Christ Is Coming Series

Contributed by Fred Sigle on Jan 12, 2023

Many believe that Zechariah’s prophecy foretells Christ’s rule of an earthly kingdom that is yet to be established, and will rule for a thousand years. I believe that Zechariah is referring to Christ’s Spiritual Kingdom—the CHURCH—in which you and I are part of today.

A. Have you ever known anyone who told you that something was going to happen, and it did? 1. What if this morning while we were sitting around the table in the fellowship hall drinking coffee and eating donuts, Mark Thomas emphatically told us that the Indianapolis Colts is going to WIN ...read more
