    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 8, 2021
     | 1,641 views

    Paul's sermon before the men of Athens began with a topic familiar to all of them. It was the common bond of religious belief and practice in their respective cultures. Jesus demonstrated it throughout the Gospels. It is a biblical pattern for effective evangelism.

    In today’s digital age, the phrase “cancel culture” has become part of our everyday vocabulary. It refers to the practice of withdrawing support from individuals — often public figures and organizations — after they’ve said or done something deemed offensive.

    Letters To The 7 Churches 5 - Laodicea Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 22, 2007
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,409 views

    we need to resist the pressures of our culture to conform unthinkingly to the status quo and to compromise on the major principles of our faith. We need to recover the radical edge of Jesus’ teaching, that turns the values of the world upside down.

    It’s interesting how we can go from the two letters we saw last week where one church thought they were alive and were actually dead and another thought they were as good as dead but actually had plenty of life in them, to the final letter of the seven where the church is neither one thing nor the ...read more

    Teaching Our Children The Way To Go. Series

     | 7,319 views

    From the beginning, the family has played a critical role in the outworking of God's purposes on earth. As the fundamental building block of society, it was designed to provide the context for the nurture and training of each succeeding generation.

    The family was also designed to reflect and flesh out spiritual truth. Scripture uses the imagery of the family to speak of our relationship with God in Christ. As believers, we are adopted children in the household of God (Rom. 8:15-17). We are also heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17; Eph. 1:11; 3:6). ...read more

    When I say the word “Viking”, what comes to mind? For me, the word conjures up medieval people of the sea, who terrorized the poor land lubbers on the coasts of Europe and other places. However, the Vikings didn’t see themselves that way. They thought of themselves as farmers and ...read more
