Prayer-Works Series

Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 16, 2008

Why ‘work’ instead of ‘activity’ of prayer or ‘picnic’ of prayer? Why does ‘prayer concert’, or ‘prayer vigil’ sound so gray and bland? The answer is obvious. Prayer is hard work! It is rewarding; it is life-changing; but it is hard.

We continue today on our topic, “Learning to serve in a Service-less Age”, more specifically looking at “The refurbished Life”. God refurbishes our lives, in part, through “The Habit of Prayer”. I confess my struggle with this topic. It is complex yet simple. So complex that we will not even begin ...read more

Praiseworthy Pride Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

A legitimate pride is a completely personal matter, and does not depend upon anyone else. It is a matter of personal satisfaction in accomplishing something that is praiseworthy.

One of the most common paradoxes of history is the paradox of succeeding through failure. Jesus failed to turn Israel from her sins, and they crucified Him, but He thereby succeeded in paying the penalty for their sin, and also for the sins of the world. By descending into the valley of failure, ...read more

Decaffeinated Christianity

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 13, 2023

Decaffeinated Christianity, like decaffeinated coffee, won't wake you up, it won't perk you up, it won't keep you up and it won't get you up; it's just there. It looks right, smells right, almost tastes right -- but NO POWER!

DECAFFEINATED CHRISTIANITY Rev. 3:1 INTRODUCTION A. COFFEE HUMOR 1. How did the hipster burn their mouth? They drank their coffee before it was cool. 2. Why did the barista get fired? They kept showing up to work in a tea-shirt. 3. How are coffee beans like teenagers? Both are always ...read more

First in a six-part series on the life of faith as seen in the person of Abraham

OK, here’s the story: man worships many gods; man hears voice of real God speaking; man drops everything he’s doing and moves away; man has kid at 100 years of age to 90-year-old wife.

Going Out On A Limb

Contributed by Christopher Roberts on Dec 11, 2001

Joshua dared to be a great leader for God. The crossing of the Jordan teaches very relevant advice on how we can also go out on a limb for Jesus. And there is joy in daring to pursue your call.
