Bathsheba A Mother Who Made A Difference Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

You can bad-mouth her all you like, but God used this mother to change history in ways that no other mother has ever been used. God’s judgment is that being sexually assaulted does not make a woman a bad mother.

Everything you can say about mothers is true, no matter how good or how bad. But it is surprising when you discover that one who you thought was so bad turns out to be so good. Who would ever dream of holding up Bathsheba as an example of motherhood? Is she not the hussy who seduced David into ...read more

30th Sunday-- The Pharisee And The Tax Collector

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Sep 26, 2022

Dorotheos said that the Pharisee was doing the right thing when he thanked God for giving him the ability to do good—as should they (the monks) themselves. The Pharisee only did one thing wrong: he passed judgment on the tax collector.

Our Gospel today begins with some challenging words, “to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else.” There’s an old joke about a psychiatrist who is seeing a new patient for the first time. The psychiatrist says, “I’m not aware of your issue, so maybe you ...read more

The Sons Of Thunder

Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 6, 2023

Jesus nicknamed James and John the "Sons of Thunder," because of their swift, brash and judgmental temperaments. They were ready to call down fire on people. But we see how the Spirit transformed John into the Apostle of Love. Has God changed you?

02. A Tale Of Two Houses – Hannah’s Song And The Fall Of Eli’s Line (1 Samuel 2) Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Aug 27, 2025

The Runaway Lad And The Waiting Dad - Which Way Will You Run? Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 26, 2005

Nebuchadnezzar has a powerful encounter with God and responds with praise! One of the reasons our testimony meetings in churches are so blah is because our people are not encountering God as they should be!

Nebuchadnezzar’s Testimony Daniel 4 GOD IS IN CHARGE AND HOLDS AUTHORITY OVER ALL! When we speak of the sovereignty of God we should be humbled—remembering that He is in charge and we are not. Speaking of the sovereignty of God can bring great confusion, for if God is really in charge ...read more

God Wants You To Know!

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Nov 21, 2018

While many poeple may feel uncertain of what will happen to them when their life comes to an end, God wants us to know exactly what to expect. These words from 1 Thessalonians bring confidence and comfort to the Christian in the face of death.

“I don’t know.” Those can be some of the most difficult words for us to say. To say, “I don’t know” is to admit that we don’t have all the answers. And we like to have answers because it makes us feel more in control, more secure, more prepared. That’s probably one of the reasons that doctors ...read more
