    What Will You Gain? Series

     | 3,270 views

    There are two sharply contrasting philosophies of life. One is seen in the rich fool story. It is about going for what the world offers. The other philosophy of life is about going for what Christ offers. Our passage contrasts these two philosophies.

    What will you gain? Mark 8:34-38 The story is told of a rich farmer, his fields were particularly fruitful, so much so that there was not enough room to store everything. He tore down the barns and built new and bigger ones. After the new barns were built, he felt like he could sit back and ...read more

    What Abraham Experienced Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 1, 2024
     | 827 views

    The exposition of Romans 4:1-3 examines Abraham's justification by faith. Paul supports his position that Abraham was justified by faith (not works) using Genesis 15:6 as his text.

    Intro In Romans 3:28 Paul came to this all-important conclusion: “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.”i In this context, to be justified means to be declared righteous before God.ii The Greek word translated justified (dikaioo) is a forensic or ...read more

    Resurrection: Fact Or Fiction?

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 16, 2025
     | 682 views

    Some of you have played Jenga with your family, right? You seek to pull piece after piece out without the tower collapsing. If Christianity were a Jenga tower, the resurrection is the one block that, when pulled, the tower comes crashing down every single time.

    Dead people stay dead.1 “Nobody goes to funerals and says, ‘What’s the over/under if this person comes alive again?’” I have yet to see one dead person come back to life. I doubt you have seen any dead person live again, either. Once people have gone down the road of death, they just don’t return.2 ...read more

    Glass Houses: Grieving Sisters Series

     | 3,411 views

    When we Judge God by our own definition and limited understanding, we make God small, strip Him of his power and remove his grace and mercy from our lives. We diminish his work on the cross and the presence of the Holy Spirit.

    I don’t know about you but I’m realizing just how much I judge everything and everyone. It’s every day, all day for me. I’ve been catching myself judging and then finding myself rationalizing and justifying my actions. Just the other day, I’m driving in my car and I’m thinking what a terrible ...read more
