    Martha's Lament

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Sep 13, 2025
     | 427 views

    Martha felt free to speak the words of disappointment and anger that we sometimes feel but are hesitant to speak. This message examines Martha's words as a model for biblical lament.

    She was frustrated, disappointed and angry. And she wasn’t holding it back. Her brother had been sick, and as his condition continued to deteriorate, Martha and her sister Mary had sent a message to their friend Jesus. In a situation, which seemed to have no hope, Jesus provided hope. They had ...read more

    Life is brief, eternity is real, and only what matters to Jesus endures—so trust Him, pursue what lasts, and live with eternal perspective.

    Some moments halt us midstride. A chair sits empty at the table, the voicemail no longer arrives, a laugh once loud has grown quiet. Or maybe it’s the ordinary that gets our attention—the steam on the mirror that fades as fast as it forms, the birthday candles that seem to spin faster around the ...read more

    Three ways knowing God has a plan can help us in our lives.

    On of the TV shows that was popular back in the 1980s was "The A-Team."  The A Team was about a commando unit that was wrongfully accused of a crime they didn’t commit, so it was constantly on the run.

    God Honors A Contrite Spirit

    Contributed by Val Black on Jul 14, 2006
    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,469 views

    The Lord honors a contrite (broken) spirit more than a "religious" one. Often times traditons & doctrines of men appeal to the flesh but God is searching for a broken spirit to love, honor by His Presence and to renew.

    God Honors A Contrite Spirit Luke 7:36-49 Wed. Evening – July 12, 2006 I. Luke 7:36 (KJV) And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat (or food). The word “desired” isn’t used in other translations. Most of them say ...read more

    A Big Crowd Meets a King I don’t know about you, but I like watching movie bloopers. There’s something funny about watching other people mess up.
