The Best Of Times In The Worst Of Times

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Dec 16, 2001

In a bad-news, good-news world, we need to remember that God’s good news 1. Is greater than the world’s bad news. 2. Transforms the world’s bad news. 3. Will do away with the world’s bad news.

Sermon # 12 - God's Grace And Man's Responsibility Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 15, 2024

God’s grace and His justice are like two sides of the same coin. Both go hand in hand and if we underplay one or overplay the other, we will err and miss out on God’s eternal reward. The life of Lot and his family will help us understand this better.

We read in Genesis 19:16, When Lot still hesitated, the angels seized his hand and the hands of his wife and two daughters and rushed them to safety outside the city, for the LORD was merciful. (NLT) Most of us are familiar with the incident of the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. ...read more

The enemy has ample provisions and plenty of patience in hopes that those inside the walls will either surrender or die of starvation! Economic inflation isn’t the worst of it. ...read more

The Enemy's Hail Mary Play Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 23, 2007

When you are really maturing in your Christian walk the enemy still has tricks up his sleeve: overwhelming numbers and your greatest fear. Learn how God overcomes both.

Joshua 11 recounts the final battles as Israel takes the northern cities. Do you know what a Hail Mary play is? It’s a thing in football where nothing else is working so the quarter back just tells everyone to go long and he lofts up the ball along with a "hail Mary" and hopes someone catches it. ...read more
