  • Martha, Martha, You're Not So Bad

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 2, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 19,649 views

    Often overshadowed by her sister Mary, Martha is often marginalized as an undesirable example of for disciples. However, when examined through the lens of scripture and not popular Christian books, Martha shines through as an example for all godly women.

    When I survey the women of the New Testament, I find some remarkable women of faith, Mary the mother of Jesus (Luke 1:26-38) is the first to come to mind. But, there are others, such as Joanna, Susanna and Mary Magalene (Luke 8:1-3). Later on, I read about Priscilla who, along with her husband, ...read more

    This lesson is about not fighting because hey let's face it well all fight. Rather, using biblical principles let's learn how to fight fair.

    I want to talk to you today about fightin’. I don’t mean fist-fighting but verbal fighting, arguing. This is not a lesson designed to tell you to stop arguing per se. No, I want to share with you some wisdom from the Proverbs on how to fight fair. The truth of the matter is we fuss and ...read more

  • A Heart For The Lost

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 3, 2013
     | 6,314 views

    How can we develop a heart for the lost, a heart like the apostle Paul's?

    How would you describe someone who has a heart for dogs? Well, we would say they love dogs. We know this because they’re constantly surrounded by dogs. They’re the one who constantly post cute pictures of dogs on facebook. Dogs are their passion, their first love. They go out of their ...read more

     | 8,282 views

    A deep exploration into Luke 16:14-30 with emphases on understanding the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus in context.

    In these tough economic times, panhandling is a common scene. Visit any sizable city and it seems there is someone on every corner asking for money. No doubt, a few desperately need help; nevertheless the majority of panhandlers are taking advantage of the generosity of others. It is enough to make ...read more

  • Don't Grow Weary In Doing Good

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 5, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 26,408 views

    Christians battle against the weariness associated with doing good. Today, more than ever the church needs Paul's exhortation, “do not grow weary in doing good” (2 Thessalonians 3:13). In this lesson we'll explore the different avenues of this teaching.

    The worst enemy of enthusiasm is weariness. That tired feeling that results from having run out of strength, patience, and endurance. All of us have been there. We decide to start something great and wonderful, and then in the matter of a few days, or weeks, or months we are tired of it. What once ...read more

  • Be Imitators Of God

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 5, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,049 views

    To call for Christians to imitate, or live like, their God is just as needed now as it was 2,000 years ago.

    Ephesians 5:1 is rather plain, “Be imitators of God.” As God’s children, we have no higher calling or purpose in life than to be like of heavenly Father. The Way of Christ is designed to reproduce godliness in our lives and therefore mold us and shape us into the image of God. ...read more

  • Is It Enough Just To Love God

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013
     | 3,996 views

    Is it enough just to love God? By that we mean, it is enough to be well pleasing to God to simply love Him? Some Christians would say yes, others no, but what does God's word say? That is the focus of this lesson.

    Last week I asked a dozen people this simple question, “Is it enough just to love God?” Only two people said “yes it was enough just to love God,” while the other ten emphatically said, “no it’s not, we have to obey Him.” So what is the answer? Is it enough ...read more

  • Judas - A Man Who Became A Traitor

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,465 views

    When you picture Judas what do you see? A monster, or a devilish figure? Do you ever see yourself? The truth is we have a lot more in common with Judas than we care to admit. In this lesson we'll explore the life of Judas and how it relates to our own.

    When it comes to villains the Bible has its fair share. There’s Cain the brother-killer. The conniving Delilah. The murderous Jezebel. The rampaging Manasseh. And then there’s public-enemy #1, Judas the betrayer of Jesus. Too often we look at the villains and we see people that we ...read more

  • How To Be A Christian @ Work

     | 4,919 views

    Let's face it, being a Christian in today's world is tough, especially at work. However, we can find help in the familiar words of Romans 12:9-21.

    On your first day of orientation for your new job what was the first thing the HR rep gave you? That’s right, it was an employee hand book. Let me ask you this, when was the last time you looked at your employee handbook? Well if you are like most folks, the last time you looked at it was ...read more

  • The Realities Of Hell

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,618 views

    Hell is a real place, with real punishment, for real people.

    We live in a time when so many things about our society have succumb to the forces of capitalism and have become commercialized. No longer do families look forward to sitting down together for a Thanksgiving meal but they look forward to the early sales for Christmas. Even the sacred day of ...read more

  • Caleb: A Man Favored By God

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013
     | 22,621 views

    God loves everyone, nevertheless there are those whom He has favored more than others. In this lesson, well explore the story of Caleb and learn why God favored him and how He will favor you.

    Does God have favorites? Oh I know He loves everybody. John 3:16 settles that argument. We also know that He does not show partiality toward men but calls all of every nation (Acts 10:34). And yet, when we survey the annuls of scripture, we clearly see that God was drawn to certain individuals more ...read more

  • 3 Life Changing Truths Based On God's Impartiality

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 10, 2013
     | 5,878 views

    "God shows not impartiality." We know this to be true but what difference should it make in our lives? We'll explore 3 life changing truths based on God's impartiality.

    I remember growing up hearing from the KJV that, “God is no respecter of men.” I have to admit it sent a rather confusing message. I was supposed to respect people, but God did not. Since then, I have learned a little bit more about God, His relationship with humanity, and I also ...read more

  • The Promises Of An Empty Tomb

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 10, 2013
     | 6,927 views

    It seemed all the hopes and dreams of the disciples were dashed when Jesus died on a cross but then came the news His tomb was found empty. His empty tomb held so many promises. We'll consider some of those promises in this lesson.

    n the day that Jesus died on the cross, it seems that the hopes and dreams of His disciples were crushed. Their teacher had been killed. Judas, one of their own, had betrayed Him and now he was also dead. The crowds that once had flocked to Jesus were no longer around. The events of the last few ...read more

  • To The Praise Of His Glory

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 10, 2013
     | 3,896 views

    Why did God send Jesus to save us? It might surprise most Christians to learn it wasn't so we could go to heaven? So what was it? In this lesson we will explore why God saved us.

    There is no doubt about, our God is a great God. Need proof of that? Let’s take a quick look through Ephesians 1-3 and learn how He has “blessed us with every spiritual blessing” through Jesus Christ (1:3): - God has blessed us by adopting us as His children (1:5, 2:19) - God has ...read more

  • Make Room For Jesus

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 10, 2013
     | 18,067 views

    When the Savior was born, no one made room for Him? Will you make room for Him in your life?

    There is no doubt that we are busy people. Between careers and work, families and friends, gardens and yard work, hobbies and recreation, and school it’s any wonder that we have time to do anything. I want to challenge the notion that we're too busy with some thoughts from a lesson entitled ...read more
