Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 27, 2022

The circumcision of Jesus.

HIS NAME WAS CALLED JESUS. Luke 2:15-21. The shepherds left all else aside in order to seek Christ, and that with all due haste (Luke 2:15-16).

Don't Lose The Glory

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on May 16, 2021

The pandemic forced churches to move from the four walls and the eloquent edifices to online sermons with an escalated determination to ensure influential and doctrine-based content because the new pandemic church demanded we do so.

“Don't lose the Glory” By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 4:19-22 “And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not; for thou hast born a son.

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 4, 2022

How you answer that question, determines how you will go through life. Here, God is teaching them how good life can be, if God is with you.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 23, 2022

The restoration of post-exilic Israel, and the new covenant in Christ.

BEHOLD THE DAYS ARE COMING. Jeremiah 31:27-34. “Behold, the Days are Coming.” This is a recurring motif in Jeremiah (cf. Jeremiah 23:5; Jeremiah 30:3; Jeremiah 31:27; Jeremiah 31:31; Jeremiah 33:14-15). There is a certainty about it because it is a declaration of the LORD. The time of ...read more

Why Did Jesus Have To Return To Heaven?

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 28, 2025

Couldn’t Jesus have stayed on earth and God would have done all that?

Ascension Thoughts 2025 Why did Jesus ascend into heaven? Wouldn’t it be better if He remained here on earth.

Jesus Has A Contract Out On You

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Feb 7, 2024

Jesus, before He died said: “ This cup is the New Covenant in my blood.” What is this “New Covenant?” This “covenant” or “contract” is full of fine print of terms and conditions. As we read this passage we learn several things about the contract. What do we learn?

How many of you love to read contracts or “terms and conditions?” Most of us don’t pull out the most recent contract we have signed and read over the terms and conditions do we?

A Glimpse Of Heaven (Exodus 24:1-25:8) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2023

God, and his people, enter into a new covenant, and share a meal. An impossible picture combining worship, and service, and God's presence-- and a glimpse of our future.

Today's passage, for me, has always been one of the most confusing, mysterious, and wonderful passages in all of Exodus (although I feel like God totally opened it up to me this week; it's ridiculous how this just flowed out). It's the kind that leaves you with questions (and the kind ...read more

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 31, 2025

Solemnity of the Epiphany 2026 Gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh are brought to Mary and Jesus, the newborn king of the Jews. Lots of ink has been poured out trying to help Christians understand the mystery of the Incarnation revealed in these costly presents. Most popularly, gold is a gift ...read more
