Paul The Church Planter

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 28, 2023

The Apostle Paul is probably the greatest church planter in the history of the church. What can we learn from him, and how should we implement it into our modern times?

It is estimated that the Apostle Paul traveled a total of 17,285 miles! It is the equivalent of going from Jerusalem to San Francisco and then back to New York City. During his three missionary journeys alone, Paul covered some 8,000 miles by land and sea. Paul was a preacher. His passion was to ...read more

In Matthew 1:1-17, we learn that Matthew summarized the entire history of God's people because he believed it all climaxed in the mission of Jesus.

Dealing With Problems In Life

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022

The war in Iraq is a war that will go down in the history books because the Americans defeated a brutal dictator and his regime, and helped this Islamic nation gain their freedom to form a democracy.

Thousands and thousands of lives have been destroyed in bringing about this democracy. But the price of freedom is always high. Many feel the reasons for invading Iraq and going to war with Saddam Hussein are justified. There are those, however, who accuse the President for going to war for ...read more

David And His Ark Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

There’s only one object, however, from what I can tell, in all the history of the Bible, that God routinely attached his presence to – the Ark of the Covenant.

The Aim of This Series Today, we continue a series designed to show you what happens when God shows up. All of this series is devoted to what theologians call a theophany.

Elijah The Prophet Of Fire Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 11, 2021

Elijah broke into the atmosphere of human history like a comet. We have no story of his birth or background. His coming was as sudden and mysterious as was his going in the flaming chariot.

Elijah was the Luther of the Old Testament. He was God's man of the hour to begin a reformation and lead the children of Israel back to God. For about 50 years devotion to God had been decreasing. Ahab was now king in Israel, and he was more wicked than all who had gone before him. He married ...read more

Light All The Way Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021

God alone is the source of light that is beyond man's capacity to discover. In this prayer God is seen as the God of nature and history, but the strongest focus is on God as the source of revelation.

John’s Ministry Begins Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 21, 2017

John the Baptist steps out on the stage of history. He is a New Testament personality, but I classify him as an Old Testament prophet, because of his character and his message.

-AD 7-8- Judean Wilderness John’s Ministry Begins (Malachi 3:1) Matthew 3:1, Mark 1:1-4, Luke 3:1-2, John 1:19-28 God planned the ministry of John the Baptist.

The Power Of The Resurrection Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

Never has a death sentence been reversed after it was already executed so that the condemned was restored to life. This was the most unique event in history, and the power of it was awesome, and it changes everything.

John Scott Harrison was the only man in the history of our nation who was the son of one president and the father of another. A man of such distinction you would think would be treated with great respect in his death, but the fact was, nobody was safe in 1878 when he died. Body snatching was at a ...read more

The Gaurdian Jehosheba Series

Contributed by Charles Payne on Oct 15, 2025

Jehosheba’s name barely appears in Scripture, but her act altered history. She wasn’t a prophet like Elijah, or a warrior like David — she was a guardian.
