    “Gaudete!” Better Than “Gesundheit!” 1) Because the Lord’s joy, and not your health, is your strength 2) Because the Lord’s Word, and not man’s pious wishes, is your confidence

    It starts with a tickle, then a quiver, followed by a gulp of air as if you’re getting ready to swim the length of a pool in one go, but then suddenly, violently that air gets expelled in a loud “Achoo!” I don’t like to sneeze. Every time I do, it feels like I pop a blood vessel. That’s why I’m ...read more

    We look at the fall of King Saul. We see how he rationalized his sins by selective obedience, shifting blame, and subterfuge. Then we study the true nature of obedience and end with an enlightening story.

    The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 Samuel 15. The man who stood head and shoulders above all the people is imploding like a skyscraper building with the walls blown out.

    The bigger they are the harder they fall. It is dramatic to see a skyscraper building brought to the ground. Dynamite blows out the walls and the building collapses to the ground. What once filled the skyline becomes reduced to a pile of rubble. The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 ...read more

    You’ll be like the Christmas tree that you remove from your house after the holidays. It is planted in a metal tree holder, the needles will fall off the moment you try to pick it up. The person who hasn’t experienced the love of Christ is nicely decorated but falls apart when handled.

Ron was born in Ada, Oklahoma to hard working parents. His father had served in the Vietnam War and neither parent felt church was ...read more

    Many of the exiles thought they were being punished for the sins of their ancestors.

    Saturday of the 19th week in course Human beings sure like to whine, don’t we? Something bad happens and we look around for someone to take responsibility, somebody to blame for our misfortunes.

    When we are faced with someone who thinks they are better than we are we try to rise above this through the reassurance that we would never treat anyone else the way they treat us. But with that kind of attitude, are we really any better?

    At one point in our lives, I am sure that we have all have come across someone that has an “I am better than everyone else, especially you” mentality. I myself have encountered this kind of attitude at multiple points throughout my life. I have experience it in the food service industry in which I ...read more

    If you were to do a word study from the Book of Hebrews, one word that keeps popping up is the word "better". Studying that word "better" challenged me to find other things that Jesus is better at that were not included in that Book of Hebrew's list.

    Introduction: If you were to do a word study from the Book of Hebrews, one word that keeps popping up is the word "better". At least twelve (12) times that word shows up in the text. Jesus is a better revelation; Jesus is a better priesthood; Jesus is a better hope, and Jesus is a ...read more

     | 4,336 views

    Thankfully, Romans 6:23 does not end with the words the wages of sin is death. It continues with the promise we all need, saying that yes, death is the punishment for sin, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

    Alba 10-3-2021 THE GIFT IS BETTER THAN THE WAGES Romans 6:23 Sin. There is that word again. It dogs us, it tempts us, and it uses us and tears us down. It is like a virus that doesn't go away.

    Unlike any other nation, the Hebrews had a conviction, seared into their collective consciousness by the mighty deeds of God, that the one God, ruler of heaven and earth, had picked them out to be His special people.
