Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Historical Background

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 31, 2021

This is the first of a series of messages centering on the sermon that the Apostle Paul gave before the groups of philosophers in Athens, and how it is a perfect model for Biblical apologetics and evangelism.

People today tend to sidestep, ignore, deter, apologize for and question the concept of reality in a world which gladly embraces the concept that reality, truth, and fact are not absolute but just a matter of opinion, experience, or personal interpretation. We have become terrified of the ...read more

Sermon On The Challenges Of Life

Contributed by William Meakin on Nov 22, 2021

Amongst the many interpretations, the challenges of life have been defined as "The situation of being faced with something that needs great mental or physical effort in order to be done successfully and therefore tests a person's ability."

So Long, Farewell (I'll Tell You This...) Series

Contributed by Steven Cordle on Mar 28, 2025

This lesson is one of the “farewell sermons” I put together. I have a bibliography for those who would like it.This sermon became the last one I preached in my previous church. The title was inspired by the tagline of a comedian who was popular when I was a kid and I have a series (unrelated to ...read more

The Heroine Of God Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 30, 2014

Deborah was one of the great "she-roes" of God. What was it about her that made her a heroine in the book of Judges and what is it about her faith that got God's attention?

Someone once said that “It is important for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!" - Maya Angelou To that person's mind the term “she-roes” was a unique and eye-catching way to talk about heroines. And I like that word. In the Bible there are many heroes, but ...read more
