Contributed by Ron Tuit on Nov 25, 2014

Rejection is a very common experience in our lives, but when Jesus appeared in the Flesh on the Earth He created, His own things and His own people rejected Him.

Hitting The Reset Button Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 6, 2014

God designed for humans to think, feel, speak, and act in certain ways. As a race we have walked away from that and messed up the universe. God, through Jesus, has hit the reset button on our lives, giving us hope for a better life.

I was recently working with something on a website and every time I made a change it messed everything up. I was only digging myself deeper. Then I saw this little button that said “Reset to Default Settings.” I thought I’d give it a try and voila, it worked. In a way, Ephesians ...read more

Sharing God's Sure Promises

Contributed by Jon Lipka on Jan 27, 2013

Eternal God, Creator of the universe, Who is beyond our knowing, has made Himself known to us, most especially in the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ. The Word of God should be reverently handled, and we should share the message it contains.

There’s an immense universe out there: earth, moon, sun, solar system, galaxy, all the cosmos. And it all began with a Big Bang about 13.772 billion years ago, give or take 59 million years. That is scientifically observable, determinable, objective and quantifiable, insofar we can know ...read more

Are You Imprinted? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 10, 2014

Many of us don’t realize that when we are born, and as we are raised, we are imprinted with a value set that comes from this age. It makes it impossible to think clearly about how the universe really operates. But in Jesus, there finally is clarity.

It’s really encouraging when you get good news about something, isn’t it? The Apostle Paul has gotten some really good news about the people living in Ephesus. The gospel first reached Ephesus in Acts 19. The people he met had been baptized into John’s baptism. They had incomplete ...read more

Our Sovereign Lord Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on May 31, 2019

In Colossians 1:15–19, Paul reveals our Lord’s true identity by viewing Him in relation to three things: 1) The Father (Colossians 1:15), 2) The Universe (Colossians 1:16-17), and 3) The Church (Colossians 1:18-19).

Colossians 1:15–19 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. 17 And he is before ...read more

Forgiving God

Contributed by Eric Ferguson on May 16, 2008

Us being forgiven by God is without question; but that God needs to be forgiven by me borders on blasphemy. Although it seems unthinkable to even mention that we would need to forgive God of the universe, our creator, our redeemer. But many people must go

Sometimes life hurts us. And when we hurt, the natural response is anger. When another person is responsible for our pain, our anger turns toward the one who has injured us. To restore peace, we know we need to forgive. But sometime’s there’s no clear culprit in our suffering. At those times, ...read more

And The Word Became Flesh

Contributed by Eric Ledermann on Jul 23, 2002

The ancient Hebrews believed Words had power--they actually did things! The ancient Greeks believed words were the guiding force in the universe. Finally, in the Gospel of John both of these things come together in Jesus Christ.

Defeating Depression

Contributed by Kevin Burden on Nov 7, 2007

Loneliness has been called the most desolate word in the English language. It is no respecter of age, race, economic status, or intelligence. Albert Einstein once said, “It is strange to be known so universally, and yet to be so lonely.”
