Tabitha Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Feb 24, 2020

Tabitha stands as the Biblical model of “servant evangelism." What makes this form of evangelism is that it is so authentic. It has the ability to touch people that nobody else can reach. Humble service. This is what draws people to you … to the Christ in you.

Some people serve God by preaching to millions on the TV or radio or internet. Some people serve God by brining thousands to Christ. Some people serve God by using their God-given talents to write songs and sing them to huge crowds all around the world … or write dozens of books … or write and ...read more

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 25, 2018

We are a generous Nation and are great contributors to charities but still a third of the world goes to bed hungry every night a third of the world is without proper medical care, a third of the world is thirsty for clean water and God's word.

Run The Race

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 29, 2022

Everyone gets tired now and then, but God’s power never diminishes, and He is never too fatigued or too preoccupied to hear us or to assist us.

That is accomplished when we can call upon the Lord for help. • Jeremiah 31:25, For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul. • Psalm 27:14, Wait on the ...read more

Everything You Wanted To Know About Revenge But Never Thought You'd Hear In Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 2, 2004

The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.

The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

When You've Done Something You Swore You'd Never Do

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 24, 2004

This passage deals with a horrible sin committed by people who I’m sure didn’t think they could ever sink that low. What does God have to say to those in our congregations who’ve done things that they never thought they would?
