    David Builds An Altar Where Abraham Offered Up Isaac: The Future Site Of Solomon's Temple Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Nov 13, 2023
     | 1,511 views

    David builds an altar at the exact same place that hundreds of years earlier, Abraham came, and built an altar there as well when he was told to do so by God.

    Here we find the last chapter of 2nd Samuel, the very last overview of the life of David and all that was done in the name of the Lord. King David had done so many great things, from defeating Goliath, to conquering enemy nations, to building up the nation economically and militarily. He had made ...read more

    No Turning Back Series

     | 6,581 views

    One of the most sobering warnings in all of Scripture is found in Hebrews 6. There is a great, even awful danger of making an irreversible and eternally destructive choice to abandon Christ. This passage stresses why you don't want to go there.

    This past year I faced a bit of a dilemma. My high school class, the class of 1970, was planning to celebrate its 50-year class reunion. I was invited. Would I go? That wasn’t the real dilemma. The real dilemma was that my spiritual father was on the organizing committee—yes, the fellow who ...read more

     | 9,910 views

    No one pays that much attention to the wrapping. It’s what is inside that counts . . . right? Maybe this Christmas we should stop and consider how the gift was wrapped.

    Wrapped Pt. 3 - In Hope I. Introduction There is usually very little attention paid to the wrappings. Even if great time and effort is made to make sure each corner is tucked and folded perfectly. Even if the bow is picked to match exactly. Even if every seam is exact.

    Live In Your Baptismal Grace

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,341 views

    In these verses we find some awesome truths about our baptism. We are told that we should count ourselves “dead to sin” but “alive to God in Christ Jesus.”

    It said to have happened in Texas when parts of the state were still considered the frontier, or the wild west. A preacher went traveling among the pioneers and settlers. In a small frontier town he shared the Gospel, and of course, he offered baptism to anyone who wanted it. Most of the town’s ...read more

    Living By A Different Standard Series

    Paul warns and urges the Corinthians to break away from their old lifestyle of visiting the prostitutes, counting their excuses with the truth of God's gift and design for sexual relations.

    As Christians, knowing God and our Saviour Jesus Christ, we live by a different code of conduct. We live by God’s standards. • They are not standards we abide by to gain God’s favour; they are standards we live by because we have been saved from sin and changed by God. • We are redeemed, forgiven ...read more

    What makes the Oreo so good? It’s what’s on the inside that counts. Likewise it is the presence of the Holy Spirit living within the believer that makes all the difference.

    · I’ve got my Oreo’s with me again! The chocolate cookie outside and the creamy icing inside; you can’t have one without the other. Of course you can always want more of a good thing that’s why I have the Oreo with Double Stuff today! Last week we looked at our motivation for obedience. Jesus ...read more

     | 8,677 views

    There are many ideas out there of what the church is or what it ought to be. In this passage Paul tells us what God's idea is of the church - and God's idea is, is what counts!

    Ephesians 2:19-22 The Church Where God Lives What is the church? What is a church? Is it a building? An institution? I grew up as a Catholic. We were taught that the Catholic Church is The Church. It is an elaborate institution, with churchs, cathedrals, basilicas and the Vatican, which is ...read more

    If we do almost nothing for our children but give them a great marriage, then that counts for more than anything else. But to do that, you have to have guardrails.

    We are in Part Four of Guardrails. Everybody knows what a guardrail is. If you’ve been with us, you know that basically what we’ve done is we’ve taken the idea of a guardrail that we’re familiar with and see every single day, and we’ve come up with a parallel idea as ...read more
