That Story Is Hard To Swallow!

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Sep 8, 2013

Maybe one of the reasons we don’t pray for our enemies or witness to them (The ones who have hurt us, talked about us, lied about us, been mean to us) is, because deep down inside, we are afraid that they will repent and God will forgive them instead of punish them!!

Jonah 4:1-11-But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he became angry. So he prayed to the Lord, and said, “Ah, Lord, was not this what I said when I was still in my country? Therefore I fled previously to Tarshish; for I know that You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger and ...read more

The Stubborn Missionary

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 16, 2021

More than Jonah could ever understand, Jesus reveals the greatness of God’s mercy. God’s mercy is for sinners. His mercy is for Jews, it’s for Gentiles, it’s for people of ever nation, for all who seek him.

What does someone do when they’ve been rescued from great danger—pulled from a burning house, or saved from drowning? Or how does a person act after his life’s been spared: when he should’ve been killed, but someone had mercy? A natural response is the desire to tell people about it. Because what’s ...read more

The Feeding God's Sheep

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 14, 2021

We often hear Christians say that they believe the Lord Jesus is coming soon to gather His church. When some Christians say that, it makes you wonder why they say that. I say this because their life-styles do not reflect that they believe He is going to come very soon.

Many live their lives as we did as children. Illus: If our parents had to go somewhere, before they left they gave us chores to do while they were gone. But once they were gone, we did pretty much what we wanted to do. But then someone would say, “Here comes Dad and Mom!” All of a sudden we ...read more

I Charge Thee

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 17, 2022

These are difficult times for Christian service, full of sinfulness. So how can Christians live and work in such a volatile society?

I Charge Thee: What does it mean to be charged? I am not referring to a person using their credit card to make a purchase, nor am I referring to an assertion of blame or guilt. Paul made a charge to Timothy to do something. What Paul is referring to here is that Timothy was charged (entrusted) with ...read more

Don't Be Side Tracked

We are called not to speculate on when the Second Coming will occur. We are called to keep our eye on the ball and preach the Gospel to all nations and not to be star gazing

SERMON: Mk 13:1-37 Advent is the time when we look forward to Jesus’s birth in Bethlehem. So is it not a little strange that the readings for the second Sunday before Advent, should be about Jesus’ second coming – a date in the future rather than to the events leading up his birth in ...read more
