    A word study on prayer and some suggested study resources.

    Types of Prayer It has been said that Bible Study is God talking to us and in prayer we are talking to God. This has also been likened to breathing. Bible Study is inhaling and prayer is exhaling. We have talked in this series about the acronym ACTS. There are many other types of prayers in the ...read more

    As a TEAM ... Together Everyone Accomplishes Ministry.

    When you think of a team … probably the first thing that comes to mind is a sports team who is made up of many players on the same side and who work together to win the game.

    Growth Through Suffering

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 9, 2001
    based on 174 ratings
     | 16,416 views

    God often teaches us through suffering. Why? Because in good times, we have a tendency to forget God. But adversity helps focus us on what is most important.

    You may be familiar with a story that’s been in the news recently [Bobby Knight allegedly choking one of his players]. My purpose this morning is not to take a position on whether or not he should be fired. What interests me is how some of the very people that this man supposedly abused are ...read more

    32Jesus called his disciples to him and said, "I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way." 33His disciples answered, "Where could we get enough bread in this remote ...read more

    The third in a series on The Three People Missed at Christmas. This focuses on a personage of the innkeeper, who was so close to the Savior, but missed the boat.

    Have you ever missed the boat? Have you ever gotten so wrapped up in things that you have missed out on the main reason for doing what you do? The rich industrialist from the North was horrified to find the southern fisherman lying lazily beside his boat, smoking a pipe. "Why aren’t you out ...read more

    "The Narrow-Gated Way"

    Contributed by Ray Scott on Mar 2, 2004
    based on 42 ratings
     | 13,091 views

    Jesus said that many will travel the broad gate to destruction ... but few will enter the narrow gate to Heaven. This message deals with the broad and narrow way.

    What's The Difference?

    Contributed by Charles Wilkerson on Mar 19, 2004
    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,542 views

    So what’s the difference between the church and the world? And what’s the source of that difference. Would it surprise those of us in the church to realize that we’re the reason things are so different?

    What’s the difference? By itself the question doesn’t make sense. What’s the difference between what? Some differences are pretty easy to see, night and day; automobiles and elephants. But others are a bit subtler such as between democracy and a representative republic. Still others are live ...read more

     | 4,222 views

    When we come to Christ in saving faith, we are justified (declared righteous). Our sins are forgiven and we receive the righteousness of Christ. But justification carries with it many fringe benefits. Being Right With God is the Foundation for A Rich Li
