    Hard Knocks

    Contributed by Ronald Fair on Apr 20, 2002

     | 5,789 views

    God has not promised skies always blue Flower strewn pathways all our lives through God has not promised sun without rain. Joy without sorrow, peace without pain But God has promised strength for the day Rest from the labor, light for the way

    Hard Knocks Introduction: Many times I have watched a boy going along the street kicking a tin can. The can would fly through the air, bounce on the pavement, scrape along the curb, and before very long it became a battered object of ill treatment. His battered can reminds me of life. I. ...read more

    Three Strikes, You're Out! Series

    Israel missed each opportunity God gave them. Each time Amos interceded, God held off on afflicting them. Finally, He had enough—He afflicted them with almost complete destruction. God is faithful to respond to the intercessory prayers of His people.

    1. The first pitch was a fastball of grace. 2. The second pitch was a fastball of mercy. 3. The third pitch was a changeup of affliction. AMOS 7:1-9 I think everybody here knows how much I enjoy sports. Mostly football, but I like other sports too. I like watching NASCAR. I’m a frustrated ...read more

    It's God's Grace That Goes To Bat For Us.

    As long as mankind has been around there has never been an illustration or definition of God's grace that stays in the heart until it takes root and begins to grow. 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

    It's God's Grace that goes to bat for us. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Heard about a man having a dream one night that he and the Lord was watching a baseball game. The Lord's ...read more

    Obey God

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 26, 2015
     | 5,046 views

    When we obey God by doing things such as loving an enemy, people will be amazed because it is not the logical thing to do. Obeying God is the Christian thing to do. When we obey God, we don't know what the result will be, but God will bless our obedience

    Acts 5:27-42 is a story about obeying God regardless of the consequences imposed by mankind. Like Peter, we as Christians are to obey the Lord rather than man in situations where the two are in conflict. For example, when obeying our political leaders would cause us to do something that goes ...read more

    STORMY DELAYS Text: John 19:25-27 The snowstorm hit Chicago on a Saturday, and many of the people stranded at Chicago's O'Hara Airport didn't get out of there until Tuesday.
