     | 13,801 views

    The twelve year old Jesus is a model for every young person. Things reported by Luke bring before us a good picture of the boy and the days that followed. The things that happened in his life are the things that should happen in the life of every child.

    Learning from the Boy Jesus Luke 2:41-52 Sermon by Don Emmitte, Grace Restoration Ministries Take Your Bibles, Please… Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover. And when he was ...read more

    Staking a claim in the land of Canaan.

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on May 18, 2020
     | 3,493 views

    Words have the power to destroy life, or support life. Fix relationships, and give those you love what you owe them.

    Getting Life Right: WORDS—Matthew 5:21-26 Last week, we heard what Jesus said about the enduring purpose of the Old Testament: Matthew 5:17, “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” Then Jesus said something ...read more

    Jesus Is The One Who Casts Evil Out

     | 1,021 views

    Job is able to put the words “good,” “afflicted,” “learning” and “law” together in one sentence. And we could add the word "joy," too.

    Saturday of the 26th week in course Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the OT, has the prayer of somebody in the midst of a crisis: “It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I might learn thy statutes.” It may very well be a prayer of Job, whose life and response we have been studying over the ...read more

    Like the ancient Israelites, we have been set free from the slavery of sin and now are heading to the Promised "Land." We face various "giants" of problems personally, in the family, and from society against biblical truth.

    The Jews were staying in Egypt for 430 years. In the last two hundred years, they were enslaved by the Egyptians. God sent Moses to deliver them from slavery and entered the Promised Land. Before they entered it, in verses 1 and 2, God gave the command through Moses to send twelve men, one from ...read more

    Architecture Of The Church

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 24, 2023
     | 1,584 views

    Jesus establishes Peter as the first building block of the Church upon his confession that Jesus is the Son of God. We, too, have that same opportunity to become a building stone in the Church.

    CHURCH! THAT WORD, ALONE, BRINGS ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDINGS. I HAVE HEARD IT DESCRIBED AS JUST A BUILDING OR AS A PLACE CHRISTIANS GO ON SUNDAY. PERHAPS, THOSE DEEPER IN FAITH WOULD CALL IT A GROUP OF BELIEVERS. WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF WHAT “CHURCH” MEANS TO US. IF WE ...read more

    Thinking of God’s generosity as a fundamental expression of His character.

    The Giving Nature of the Godhead: We look at faithful men and women who have been transformed by the master…The great cloud of witnesses all testify the same account—God is faithful.

    Discussion of 3 character traits essential to being Mighty for the Lord

    “Mighty Is As Mighty Does” II Sam. 23:8-12 Intro. What does it take to be ‘mighty’ for the Lord? I believe it takes someone who knows they are never outnumbered.
