    Breaking The Box

    Contributed by Mark Lindsey on Nov 20, 2025
     | 259 views

    This woman brought a precious ointment in an alabaster box. This expensive perfume was costly but she was willing to give it. It will always cost you something to truly worship the Lord. If your worship costs you nothing, then your worship is worth nothing.

    “BREAKING THE BOX” LUKE 7:36-50 Many times in the Bible when a certain woman is mentioned she is often symbolic of the church. In Luke 15, we have the woman who had ten coins and lost them. It is a picture of the church as she lights the light, cleans the house, and searches diligently for what is ...read more

     | 186 views

    WE HAVE SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR” Growing up in a poor military family, life didn’t always feel like something to be thankful for. Some of my earliest memories were of packing up, moving out, moving in, starting over… again and again. Money was tight.

    Power Of Easter

    Contributed by Chris Mccall on Mar 29, 2024
     | 1,045 views

    The passion I felt from the heart of the Holy Spirit was to impact every person on this Easter Sunday with the power that was released in the Resurrection of Jesus!

    TPT… For we’ve been buried with Him into His death. Our “baptism into death” also means we were raised with Him when we believed in God’s resurrection power, the power that raised Him from death’s realm. This “realm of death” describes our former state, for we were held in sin’s grasp. But now, ...read more

    “The Uttermost Part” Acts 2:5-12 As we sift through the Nations mentioned in Acts 2, I would like to ask a simple question; what does God want us to accomplish concerning the Gospel message?

    This passage is a stark contrast to the "kindly grandfather" image of God that many had. What are the specific ways that shows up here?

    JUDGMENT-FREE ZONE: Many people like to think of God as a kindly grandfather. - Ezekiel 5:1. - There is a popular conception of God as a kindly (and slightly senile) grandfather in the sky. He’s not going to rebuke you for anything you’re doing. He’s going to ask if everyone had a good time. And ...read more

    Is It Ok To Doubt? Series

    Contributed by Roberta Karchner on Apr 19, 2024
     | 1,082 views

    For the doubters and skeptics, this is where you belong, right there with Thomas. Jesus didn't criticize his doubting, he invited him to actually touch him. You don't have to believe to come, this is a place where we can ask our questions. This is a place where we find Jesus to be real.

    My theme this Eastertide is the way that Jesus changed who we are AFTER the resurrection – while most of our studies are on the person Jesus BEFORE the crucifixion, what happened after is what changed us permanently. But the truth is, even those of us who call ourselves believers doubt at times. ...read more
