The Church

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Mar 16, 2006

A huge metal structure was built in 1889 for an international exposition. It was larger than anything that was built like it before, and it was considered by many as a ‘monstrosity that was to grotesque to see.’ But the creator, who had spent over a year building it, knew it was destined for ...read more

Guidelines For Christianity: Liar, Liar Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 26, 2015

The only problem with lying is that God takes it a lot more seriously than we do.

Ex. 20:16, “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” Don’t lie! Joe the Butcher had only one chicken left, and he didn’t want to keep it over the weekend. The pastor of the church in town came into the store. He said, “My wife sent me to buy a good ...read more

Following God's Lead Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jun 5, 2016

Contributed by David Henderson on Jan 5, 2011

The Return Ticket Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 19, 2006

The same strategies that fail outside of God’s timing can work wonderfully within God’s timing. The patterns we see before Moses left Egypt are repeated as Moses left Midian, but they now produce success because God’s time is right.

The Return Ticket (Exodus 4:18-31) 1. I do not like many movies, especially newer ones. Although Christian convictions would limit what and how much I watch, if I was lost I still would rarely watch movies. It is who I am. I am, for the most part, a movie dud. 2.

Building Margins And Resources Series

Contributed by Wayne Cordeiro on Nov 13, 2007

Margins may be defined as “the space between your load and your limit.” The load represents the things that you carry every day. You reach a limit when you crack and go over the edge. Synonyms for margin include a buffer, space, reserves, or reservoir.

Numbered Days God says that we must live as a people who number our days. This means that we are to be stewards of our time. We must steward the hours that God gives to you and to me. We all have 24 hours and none of us have any more or any less. Load vs. Limit Margins may be defined as “the ...read more

Worms With Intestinal Fortitude!

Contributed by Thomas Mccracken on May 29, 2012

the oldest sin, pride, remains our oldest enemy and is not confined nor limited to the unsaved but has crept its way into Christianity even to the precious, once revered, pulpit. It is pride that asks “what about me? It is pride that demands “do somet
