A New Beginning

Contributed by Adam James on Jan 2, 2017

Often we set a New Year's Resolution, because there is a part of ourselves we are not happy with, or we want to live better than we have before. The world says we can't change. But with God, nothing is impossible.

Who here has ever made a new year’s resolution? How many people have actually stuck with it? I have made a new year’s resolution many times. A common one for me has been to lose weight, and get into shape. However, needless to say, I never lost weight. And I came to the realisation, ...read more

The Resurrection Of Christ - The Empty Tomb Investigation

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Nov 30, 2020

Today we will be investigating some of the facts or proofs of Christ's resurrection.

Last time, we looked at the various kinds of sufferings that Jesus Christ experienced both on His way to the Cross and once He was nailed to the Cross. We concluded, as the Scripture teaches, that Jesus died and was very much dead. He had to die in order to pay the penalty for our sin. Today we ...read more

The Peril Of Hardening Your Heart Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Jan 25, 2021

Have you gotten used to saying "No" to God? It became a habit of the Children of Israel in the wilderness and ultimately resulted in an all-out rebellion against God that disqualified most of them from God's rest.

Author, theologian and Professor Craig Keener tells how his mother asked him if he believed in an after-life at the age of nine, and he replied no. She agreed with him and told him how most intellectuals did as well. So he felt affirmed in his atheism. The problem was that such a worldview left ...read more

Named For The Revolution

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 12, 2021

This message (inspired by Mario Murillo) addresses Millennials. Murillo says the devil fears "that you would find the one ingredient that would make you unstoppable . . . But what is it? We will see it in the account of a king – King Josiah."

The Lord laid it on my heart this morning to speak to the upcoming generations who are beginning to find their place in society; those who are considered Millennials and younger. So, let me get started with some terminology. Millennials, also known as Generation Y, were born between 1981-1996. ...read more

Don't Lose What Is Already Good

Contributed by Ed Lu on Apr 21, 2023

Nahum whose name means comforter, chosen by God during a time of turmoil to deliver God’s verdict to the Assyrian empire straight into the heart of its capital - Nineveh. Isn’t it amazing when we choose to do what we are naturally good at, God uses us supernaturally to further advance His Kingdom?

I have been reading and meditating on the book of Nahum for our time today. It’s a book that’s easily lost, often ignored, hardly known, difficult to find, seldom turned (pages crisp) - some even describe it as “a hymn of hate” (NAC). Book about judgment and destruction, but don’t quit there, ...read more

Joshua's Final Words, Part 2 (Joshua 24:1-33) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 29, 2022

Joshua calls them to make a deliberate choice-- for Yahweh, or other elohim. And he warns them, they will fail, and God's wrath will come. That said, he and his family will serve Yahweh.

Last week, in Joshua 23, we read what we thought were Joshua's last words. They were, really. Just, it was only first half of his farewell. And the focus of those words was on the warning. As a reminder, I'm going to reread verses 14-16: 14 “And now I am about to go the way of all the ...read more
