Let Me Remind You

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 8, 2021

A Position Of Transition

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 5, 2021

Do As I Do

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Apr 25, 2021

Perhaps you heard this phrase growing up (and have repeated it to your own kids): 'do as I say, not as I do'. I can swear but if I hear you do it you're in trouble. Contrast that with what we see in the bible and we realize the right thing to be able to say is, 'do as I do'.

Are We Allowed To Judge?

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 29, 2021

In Matthew 7:20, Jesus said, “Therefore by their fruits you will know them.” You hear people all the time say, “Don’t judge me!” So, how do we evaluate good fruit from bad fruit? And, as believers, are we allowed to judge others?

A little boy went over to a pastor’s house, where the pastor was doing some carpentry in his garage. The boy simply stood there and watched him for quite a long time.

Where Your Treasure Is

And I said, Lord, I just recorded a podcast on idolatry, Why are we talking about idolatry again? And He ...read more

Raising Boys To Be Men

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 22, 2021

Gender-role confusion is an increasingly serious issue in American churches. Many men and women have lost the concept of what it means to be masculine or feminine.

In place of biblical roles where men, women, and children find their identity, we have elevated freedom to be whatever you want as the supreme good. In place of the ...read more
