    “Crossing the River” Rev. Chip Blackshear First Presbyterian Church of Corpus Christi, Texas Joshua 3:1-17 I don’t know about you, but for me it seems that sometimes life is just flying by and the days and weeks seem to run together. One reason for that, I think, is because much ...read more

     | 3,613 views

    This sermon is how faith "the size of a mustard seed" actually gives us the ability to offer forgiveness to others.

    "Faith and Forgiveness" Allow me to begin today with some self-disclosure: I do not understand exactly what faith is, or how it works. But I have a couple of ideas from the lesson that might be helpful. More on that in a moment, but first I’ve got to share some humor. Have you ever ...read more

     | 1,684 views

    Jesus Christ made it clear to His disciples in the Upper Room and to everyone that He and He alone provides us access to God the Father. There is no other way to God and salvation except through Him. The issue is settled.

    Just who do we think we are to question the Sovereign Lord God Almighty, Creator and Sustainer of all things (Genesis 1:1; John 1:1-4; Colossians 1:16-18) as to how He has solemnly decreed from all eternity the means by which He has chosen to redeem our sorry, self-centered, malevolent, cruel, ...read more

    Hazards Ahead: Watch Out! (Proverbs 27:4-7) 1. Moms come in all varieties. Rather than share a joke about moms, today I will share a couple of humorous true stories: My mother, a master of guilt trips, showed me a photo of herself waiting by a phone that never rings. “Mom, I call all the time,” ...read more

    Devil came from heaven, Christ also came from heaven The Devil knew God as an arch angel before his falling, Christ also knew God, His Father. Then how, that arch angel became the devil and Christ became the saviour?

    Many claim to have known God but living a life controlled by demons and devil with the attitude of devil. Many may say, no we are not like devil- but Jesus even called Pharisees and the religious people who claim to be God’s children- children of devil (John 8:44) Why does He say that? Because ...read more

     | 84 views

    Trusting God in the midst of fear means refusing to panic, anchoring ourselves in His Word, and passing courage to others through faith.

    If fear had a face, many of us could sketch it from memory. It’s the 2 a.m. visitor, the whisperer of what-ifs, the tightness in the chest that shows up when the phone rings, the inbox pings, or the doctor clears his throat. Fear creeps into bedrooms, boardrooms, and back pews. It visits ...read more
