So, You Want To Get Baptized

What It Means To Have Faith (1)

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 2, 2011

Biblical faith is real, practical and experiential. Faith is dependency on God. Practical faith is (1) believing when you don’t see it, and (2) obeying when you don’t understand it.

Turn with me to Hebrews 11. Look through and you’ll see these words: BY FAITH… • We have here a list of men (and woman) in history that have exercised faith in God and saw the acts of God in their lives. • Biblical faith is not an emotion or a feeling. It is not abstract or intangible. It is ...read more

A Call To Reclaim Education

Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Aug 10, 2024

Christians must step up and reclaim the education of our children. The world has indoctrinated them for far too long, and if there is to be a hope to reverse our nations course, it will take a generation of work. A large part of that work must be in the realm of education.

What Is Biblical Love? How To Walk In The Way Of Love Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Feb 12, 2024

Biblical love is willing to say a hard truth to someone in love, knowing that we may lose the friendship, but loving their soul more than their companionship. That’s real love. Niceness is a joke and a sham, compared to the glory of agape love.

He had given each of his children, Brandon and Helen a quarter to enter, and then went to continue shopping. Soon he saw his daughter hadn’t gone in. He went to ...read more
