Peacemakers Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 24, 2023

"Blessed are the peacemakers." Our concept of peacemaking must be based on scriptural revelation. Biblical peacemaking is not appeasement. We know that from God's example of making peace. What is biblical peacemaking and how is it rewarded?

Intro We come today to the 7th Beatitude found in Matthew 5:9: “Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.”i We are approaching the pinnacle of this list of attributes that bring blessing on a person’s life. Everybody wants to be blessed. But not everybody is willing to take ...read more

Is It Good To Not Touch A Woman? (1 Corinthians 7:1-17) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 14, 2022

For most people, the answer is this: you should have a spouse, you should "have" your spouse, and your spouse should "have" you.

Let's start today, by simply reading 1 Corinthians 7:1: (1) Now, concerning the things which you wrote, "[it is] good for a man, a woman/wife not to touch." [a woman/wife is focused in Greek]. This sentence is almost certainly a Corinthian slogan that Paul is quoting. Paul not ...read more

Show Grace To Mean, Evil People (Titus 3:1-8) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Nov 10, 2022

Titus 3:4-5 are rightly celebrated, but in a way that usually misses Paul's point. Show grace to mean people, recognizing that those people are like you used to be, before God washed you and gave you his Spirit.

Last week, in Paul's letter to Titus, chapter 2, we read how Paul told Titus to set up the church, and the families within the church, to look like the ideal first century Roman household. Especially when you're a fringe religious group, but probably always, it's important to live in a ...read more

The Lord's Prayer Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 27, 2022

One of the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray (Luke 11:1). Jesus said that prayer should not be a way to get attention and praise from people. It is wrong to pray to impress people. It should be done with a right heart toward God.

The Lord's Prayer Main Point: God wants us to spend time with Him in prayer. Key Verse: Jesus often went away to be by Himself and pray. - Luke 5:16 Background/Review Jesus had come to earth to bring the Kingdom of God to men. Jesus made it clear that things in the Kingdom were very different ...read more

The Thirst Of The Soul - Psalm 63 Part 3 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jun 23, 2025

One attribute of God you won't see in the theology books, even though it is mentioned more often in the Bible than other, more celebrated attributes, is the food-likeness of God. And before you laugh--consider how often God compares himself to food and drink.

Psalm 63:1-5 A Psalm of David. When he was in the Desert of Judah. O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. 2 Therefore I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. 3 ...read more
