    Message explores God's love for His people and the stability that comes into our lives through a revelation of His love.

    Jeremiah 31:3-4 1-25-15 I want to take as our subject today, the Love of God. A revelation of God’s love is foundational to everything.

  • Should We Change The Way We Do Church?

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jan 23, 2023
     | 3,552 views

    The decline in North American Christianity is prompting various efforts to revise the way we do church. Some of these efforts are clearly counterproductive. Acts 2:42-47 reveals eight practices that must be incorporated in any church model.

    Should we change the way we do church? That question is being asked by a lot of people in America. Something is not working as it should. Almost everyone agrees on that. For the first time in U.S. history, church membership fell below the majority according to a Gallup poll conducted in 2020. This ...read more

    He explained that the wealthy man had: • Wonderful clothes, • Lived in luxury • Had all the food he could eat But he had no compassion for Lazarus, who was a beggar. Lazarus was so poor that he ate the crumbs from the rich man’s table. • Later in their lives, the rich man ended up dying and ...read more

  • Fellowship In The Gospel

    based on 70 ratings
     | 7,626 views

    Paul tells his firends at Philippi that they are partners with him in the Fellowship of the gospel as it is expressed in Thanksgiving, Prayer, Love and Service.

    FELLOWSHIP IN THE GOSPEL There’s a key phrase in the opening verses of Paul’s Letter to the Philippians: in verse 5 of the Authorised Version he refers to "Fellowship in the Gospel". I wonder what comes to mind on hearing these words? Money isn’t the only thing that can be devalued. Words, too, ...read more

    He brought forth a bride for the first Adam from his side; now He has done the same for the Last Adam

    It has been said many times, that crucifixion must be the cruelest form of capital punishment ever devised by the mind of man. In our culture of comfort, and in a time when the pendulum of justice has swung so far away from the protection of society and so far toward the protection of the ...read more

    The Bible teaches that prayer affects God & that prayer can affect circumstances.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER CENTRAL CHRISTIAN, BROWNSVILLE, TX A. I want to read a passage of scripture that you have probably heard many times, but I’m afraid we have generally failed to focus on what it is saying. Listen as I read Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord ...read more

    John the Elder writes an appraisal of three church members: Gaius - who serves others, Diotrephes - who hinders others, and Demetrius - who attracts others.

    AS OTHERS SEE US The third letter of John is one of the shortest in the New Testament but it has much to say to us. It’s a warm and honest pastoral letter. A straight from the shoulder message from a pastor to his people. Where encouragement and commendation are ...read more

    What is worship? How do we worship, and what prevents us from worshiping?

    We probably all have some kind of mental picture of what it means to worship.

Or perhaps what comes to mind is the image of a traditional brick ...read more
