     | 5,077 views

    The Tower of Babel explains why people speak different languages. A united human race speaking a single language agree to build a city and a tower with its top in the sky. Yahweh, confounds their speech so that they can no longer understand each other and scatters them around the world.

    “We already know that we’re not supposed to take drugs, have sex, or drop out of school. Sometimes adults think we’re just a bunch of goofballs, only interested in pizza and concerts. But kids in our youth group really do want to learn all about Chris

    The September morning air felt cold as I walked from my car toward the flagpole. Across the school property in front of me, I was encouraged by the large gathering of students that I could see in front of the building. “Wow… a pretty impressive group at this hour,” I thought as I glanced at my ...read more

    We please God when we follow God’s plan of salvation

    Last week I spoke of pleasing God and indicated that for some the word pleasing is a negative term due to life experiences. As I prepared for this morning, I determined to define the phrase pleasing God before we go further into this series because sometimes the same phrase or word has a different ...read more

    God looks for a person in this Generation where every walk of the life is more perverted, rotten. Yet God has the hope on this generation, He is looking for a person who can do the greater things.

    Why Does The Government Do More Than The Church To Help The Poor? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 26, 2015
     | 5,337 views

    This passage on the care of widows opens up a larger question: what's the place the church should have in the care of the poor (versus the place the government should have)?

    THE POINT OF THE PASSAGE: Taking care of the needy widows was a big deal in the early church. - There was a different societal structure and a lack of social safety net back then. The church stepped in to help. - Unpack some of the passage. - The passage raises a more general question: why ...read more

    Do Christians seek comfort? Or do we seek substance? Jesus offered substance, but it wasn't always appreciated, even by those identified as disciples.

    “When many of his disciples heard [Jesus’ teaching], they said, ‘This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?’ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, said to them, ‘Do you take offense at this? Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he ...read more

    Jesus calls disciples to assess what is truly valuable, boldly seizing that aspect of life.

    “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?” [1] He who dies with the most toys wins. At least, that is the sentiment expressed in contemporary bumper sticker theology. It probably sums up the contemporary worldview that esteems winning at ...read more

    A response to the question, "What of those who have never heard the Gospel?" God is just and God is gathering to Himself and for His glory a great harvest of souls.

    “You have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. Do you suppose, O man—you who ...read more

    Everywhere we hear the Church is dead, but does that mean that we have to bury her?

    From everywhere we hear the cry of the world that the Church is dead. People are leaving the Church because there is so little life left in the Church. I think if we can write an obituary about the Church, it will probably be as follows: For many years the Church was in a battle for survival. ...read more
