    Is Legalism A Bad Word?

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010
     | 2,493 views

    This message deals with the fact that God’s law (from Moses to Christ) is good and that its continued presence in church and culture is right, not wrong.

    Too many people today, even Christians, feel like the days of grace and spiritual liberty should erase the law of God. If any minister or church preaches or teaches the laws of God as good, they are labeled as old-fashioned, cult-like, or legalistic. Since when did ‘legalism’ (the idea of abiding ...read more

    Contributed by Josh Reich on Feb 23, 2007
     | 6,686 views

    The emerging culture wants to see whether or not we as Christians have faith we live by, more than just talk about.

    *Author’s note: A lot of my ideas came from Erwin McManus’ book "The Barbarian Way."* For the past two weeks, we have been talking about the church, what it looks like, what it does. For the next 3 weeks, we are going to put some skin on the bones so to speak. There has been one verse that has ...read more

    The Easter event is the lynchpin of history. God has given us hope for eternal life. In our culture there is a battle for the mind regarding this truth.

    In Jesus Holy Name April 16, 2006 Text: John 20:1-18 Easter Sunday Redeemer “The Epic Event - Easter” If you visited the shopping mall this week end, would your visit there help you understand the meaning of Easter? Our culture definitely has an Easter holiday. You can buy ...read more

    When we excuse ourselves for our prejudices of color, education, culture, or status, we undo the love mercy of God in our lives.

    A church painting- A church decided to paint their building.

    Jesus Died In Weakness Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 12, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,104 views

    Weakness is not something valued by our culture or this age. But the death of Jesus shows us the strength we can all find in the weakest of moments.

    As we look at the events following the crucifixion of Jesus the Messiah let’s get one fact straight: Jesus really died on the cross. The Roman Centurion who oversaw the execution testified to it in Mark 15:39. We know from John 19:31-34 that the soldiers made double sure by piercing His side. ...read more

    In a culture which values its elderly less and less, God calls us as the church to treat the elderly like family and like a fortune.

    When I was a teenager, I thought people in their 50’s were really old. Now, that I’ve recently celebrated my 52nd birthday, I’m not so sure, especially since I’m around so many people here who are still going strong in their 70’s and 80’s. They don’t seem ...read more

    Did God Create Humans Male And Female - And Non-Binary Or Trans-Gender?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 26, 2021
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,489 views

    The subjective ever-changing cultural mores continue to creep into the church to replace the Bible as the final and absolute authority in the life of the Born-Again Christian.

    The mother of a high school student told me that a few kids in the youth group said they were non-binary (also known as ENBY or NB) and were questioning the Bible about its two sexual gender emphasis. That disturbed me deep in my spirit which led to this message. I started ministry decades ...read more

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 2, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,286 views

    There was a wonderful atmosphere around Jesus: there was the prophetic, the counter-culture, the miracles, the crowds, the excitement. But not everyone liked it. The carnal tried to suppress the Spirit.

My doctor asked if anyone in my family suffered from mental illness. “No,” I said, “we all seem to enjoy it.” 2. I thought the dryer made my clothes shrink. Turns out it was the refrigerator. 3.
