    Tabitha, who is also known as Dorcas, whose name means Gazelle, was the first woman explicitly called a disciple in the book of Acts. What did she do that merited being called a disciple?

    Artificial People Living Artificial Lives - Message Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 13, 2023
     | 2,196 views

    Do people live artificial lives because they are artificial, OR they are artificial because they live artificial lives? Olives will never be produced from a fig tree. The world is full of artificial people. What about Christians – are you living an artificial life that does not please God?

    ARTIFICIAL PEOPLE LIVING ARTIFICIAL LIVES - MESSAGE [A]. EXPOSING ARTIFICIALITY I have just seen one of these documentaries set in a very exclusive English Hotel rated with 5 stars.

     | 2,892 views

    In a world gone wrong, fear God and Praise Him even in the fire, and so find joy in life even when life is unpredictable, unfair, and unjust.

    Upon accepting an award, the late Jack Benny once remarked, “I really don't deserve this. But I have arthritis, and I don't deserve that either” (Haddon Robinson, www.PreachingToday.com). People often don’t get what they deserve. So how do you live in such a world? How do you live in a ...read more

    The God Of Great Turnarounds Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on May 22, 2023
     | 2,817 views

    The story of Esther and Mordecai is full of plot twists, unexpected outcomes, and surprise endings, all reminding us that we serve a God of great turnarounds. Do we have “Hamans” in our lives? From the story of Esther and Mordecai we can draw encouragement for our lives today.

    Introduction Video Ill.: The Story of Esther - Second Look Films (segment 4) We are continuing our study today based loosely on Max Lucado’s book, You Were Made for This Moment.

     | 1,947 views

    What is Biblical Joy? Throughout the New Testament, we are encouraged to be joyful and to rejoice. But does that mean that we always have to be happy?

    The question that Paul seems to be trying to answer for most of this passage of scripture is, how Jewish do you have to be to be a Christian? It was the question of whether or not Christians had to follow all of the Jewish regulations and guidelines was an ongoing debate throughout the New ...read more

     | 2,815 views

    We can either live for Jesus or live for the pleasures of this world. Reading, memorizing, and meditating on God's word is not enough! To draw nearer to the Lord we simply must put His words into action by imitating those who imitate Christ!

     | 6,295 views

    Jesus said that our righteousness must exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees. This means that He wants us to exceed the spiritual expectations prescribed by the Law; as we are to strive for excellence in our walk with God.

    I have entitled our message, “Exceeding Expectations,” and I want to begin by sharing a true story. A contractor in Mexico was hired to build a Catholic Church, but he used cheap materials in order to make more money. He reasoned that the quality of the materials did not matter, so long as the ...read more
