The Christ In A Manger

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020

I am sharing this message as I prepare to speak in the Philippines to celebrate the anniversary of Don Stewart.

Only In Christ Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 12, 2022

Progress became a secular god, a new form of hope for secular man in the 19th century, a progress that would lead to freedom. It was not to be.

Monday of 2nd Week in Lent The call of Jesus in Matthew, which we heard at Mass on Saturday, was to “be perfect, as the heavenly Father.” In Luke’s redaction we heard today, the call is to “be merciful, as the heavenly Father.” If we understand that the root meaning of perfection is ...read more

The Body Of Christ

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 12, 2022

If we desire to impact our community for Jesus Christ, then we need to be unified. Using the illustration of the church as a human body, Paul shared how a church that is divided will fail to function properly; or perhaps, even fail to survive.

The Return Of Christ Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 24, 2022

When a believer dies, others are not to grieve like those who have no hope in Christ. But for believers we are grieving for ourselves and our loss, not for the person that died. This assurance believers have is because of the hope we have in Christ.

Then how do we know the day and hour of the return of Christ? It is when the trumpet sounds. It is just ...read more
