(When Jesus Rewrites Your Story )

Contributed by Derrick White Sr on Nov 26, 2017

WHAT EVER JESUS HAS DONE FOR YOU IT`S WORTH TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE JESUS HAS NOT DONE FOR YOU WHATEVER HE HAS DONE FOR YOU TO BE QUITE AND RESERVED BECAUSE WHEN JESUS DOES WHAT HE DOES HE DOES NOT DO IT FOR NOTHING

Be Prepared

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 15, 2018

The Trial Of Our Christian Faith

Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 10, 2015

When we talk to the genuinely curious, we show God’s love. We show that we want to be with God and want others to be with him. We will love the things and people that he loves. We will hate the things and people that he hates. We will love others.

The reading we heard from John 5:30-47 a few minutes ago takes place during a “trial”, but it was not held in a courtroom. Jesus had just healed the paralyzed man at the pool of Bethsaida, and the healing took place on the Jewish Sabbath. The Jews had strict rules about what could and ...read more

What About Joseph?

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Nov 26, 2014

When we talk about the Christmas story we typically focus on Jesus, Mary, the Magi or the shepherds, but what about Joseph? His words may not be in the bible but his deeds are; and they speak volumes. What can we learn from the man who raised Jesus?

WHAT ABOUT JOSEPH? INTRODUCTION: When we talk about the Christmas story we typically focus on Jesus, Mary, the Magi or the shepherds, but what about Joseph? It’s like he’s just part of the supporting cast; one of the lesser roles in the events of Christ’s birth. In fact, there is ...read more

Who's Living In Your House?

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Jan 21, 2020

Let Us Consider One Another Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jan 8, 2021

And what I want to talk with you about today is- spurs. I looked up the word to see exactly what it meant. And according to the dictionary it means a device with a small spike or a spiked wheel that is worn on a rider's heel and used for urging a horse forward.

In the picture, I have on my cowboy hat, cowboy shirt, my boots, short pants standing next to my spring action rocking horse. Now that I have grown up, I realize there are some photo flaws in that ...read more
