    Spiritual Dumbness Series

    Contributed by James Dina on Jan 4, 2022
     | 4,059 views

    No people make such good preachers as those who were once dumb. If the Lord opens their mouths, they will think they cannot preach often enough, and earnestly enough, to make up for the mischief they did before.

    SPIRITUAL DUMBNESS “And they bring unto him one that was deaf and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him. And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue; And looking up to heaven, he sighed, ...read more

    Here, the Israelites became distracted from their purpose by a desire for worldly gain. They sought a more luxurious existence, with the ease of someone else doing all the work, and they ran from battle and confrontation.

    In 1797 the governor of Louisiana granted Daniel Boone ten thousand acres of land in Missouri; however, he failed to make the trip to New Orleans to complete the title. He instead became distracted by an opportunity to be appointed chief of the district of St. Charles.(1) While he was ...read more

    He is a miracle working God

    Today, I want to take a look at the life of a man that was radically changed by the power of God. But most importantly I want to look at his faith and his reaction to Jesus. As the story open up, we see that this was a man that was paralyzed. He had never known what it was to walk. What he had ...read more

    Prisoners Of Hope

     | 9,465 views

    Jesus came to lift us out of the pit of the muck and mire of this world in which people are being held captive. Instead, we can be held captive by the hope of Jesus, who through His death and resurrection lifts us up to eternal life. This is why every believer in Jesus Christ is a Prisoner of Hope.

    Prisoners of Hope Zechariah 9:11-12 Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb03VOm2EGM I’ve been looking lately at Scriptures that speak to the coming Messiah and the gospel message, and when I read the Scripture that I will be sharing today, it has the fullness of the gospel within it, but not ...read more

    Why would God bother to tell us to cast all our anxieties upon Him? Why is that so important

    There was a guy named Bob Redrow who was on his first business trip to Japan. He and his colleagues were picked up by a van to be taken to their meeting, and during the ride Bob became anxious and upset by the driver. The van was zipping through the narrow streets… and all the while the driver was ...read more

    I had learned about God when I was 7, 8, 9 years old, into my teens, but as my life became increasingly broken I rejected God, and went my own way in anger and pride.

    I had learned about God when I was 7, 8, 9 years old, into my teens, but as my life became increasingly broken I rejected God, and went my own way in anger and pride.

     | 1,808 views

    One must be on guard in the Christian life. The slide downwards begins with listening or taking note, then standing to observe more, and then sitting in the place of that sin. The message examines the first five verses of Psalm 26. A heart before God is what we must have.

    PSALM 26 – “LISTEN, LINGER, LOUNGE” WILL FAIL THE TEST AND IT IS ALL OVER Today we will be looking at the first 5 verses of Psalm 26, one of the Lectionary readings for today.

    Elisha was on his deathbed and Joash was in tears. In this fleeting moment, the prophet offers the King a gift - an inheritance of great value. What did Elisha offer, and what difference can that make to us?

    OPEN: Tomorrow is Memorial Day and it’s a very special day. It’s a day to remember our military - those who’ve died in war.

     | 3,552 views

    Today, the civil phase begins. The story of Jesus’ trek between Gethsemane and Golgotha is known as the Passion. You really cannot truly understand the cross until you understand how Jesus got there and what took place on the day He was crucified.

    Johnnie Cochran was the famous defense attorney of OJ Simpson. Many of you will remember his closing arguments in that case, “If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit.” He was once asked whom he would have liked to defense. Cochran’s answer is telling: “Jesus is the person I would like to have defended. ...read more

    Had you gone to Jerusalem that day so long ago, and had you gone just outside the wall to the north, out through the Damascus gate, there you would have seen a rocky hill. And on that hill, you would have seen three crosses, with three men on those crosses.

    Good morning to Cross Church and happy Palm Sunday to you. Turn to Luke 23 with me this morning. The universal symbol of Christianity is the cross, the old rugged cross.
