    What would the disciples do with the absence of their Lord? What would they do now? Yet, on that first Easter, the question was asked and the answers given over a period of time have changed the world. The question is for us today, "What now, disciple?

    JOHN 20:1-10 WHAT NOW, DISCIPLES? I. THE DARKNESS: * A. Doubts. B. Demoralization. C. Denials. Ii. THE DELIGHTS: ** A. Discovery. B. Defensible. C. Dedication. III. THE DIRECTIONS: *** A. Declarations. B. Dying. C. Dinning. If we could somehow ...read more

    Paul provides four keys to experiencing the inward and abiding peace that only God can give.

    In our last study, as we considered the first five verses of this last Chapter of the Philippian letter, we saw how that Paul urged the importance of there being “harmony in the Lord.” That is, the Apostle stressed the necessity of their being peace between members of the Body of Christ. There ...read more

    The tithe is a hot ticket item in today’s churches – particularly in those churches that preach a connection between wealth and God’s blessing. The tithe, in their view, is the investment strategy of heaven. Is this an accurate portrayal of the tithe?

    The Little Drummer Boy Leviticus 27:20-32 Cascades Fellowship CRC, JX MI September 21, 2003 We see their smiling faces on the television. Silky smooth voice, great digs, hair just so, offering the promise of health and wealth. The key? The tithe. Offer your tithe unto the Lord – that is, to ...read more

    Rebellion - The Faith Killer Series

     | 6,157 views

    Many of us are exposed to the gospel, but as the Israelites had a choice to go into the Promised Land, we have a choice whether to believe God when He says salvation is through Jesus Christ. Do you have a hard or soft heart to the Lord?

    I grew up in the 60’s when rebellion against authority was turned into an art form. Rebellion says: I don’t like someone taking authority over me. I don’t want you telling me what’s wrong with me, and I certainly don’t want you telling me what to do because what I think is the most important thing ...read more

    Christians must fight a battle for truth - not just for "truths" but for the very idea and possibility of truth.

    The God of Truth Ps. 31:1-5 As a campus minister, it is easy enough for me to see problems in our world today -- from individuals who are just not sure if there is any way to make sense of life to the "Gay and Lesbian Alliance."

    Trialful Joy

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Oct 8, 2009

     | 3,457 views

    Trials and tests are no fun. James doesn’t tell us to consider it fun but to "consider it all joy." Trials and tests are gut wrenching and drawn out at times, but the one thing that we must know is that God is with us through the whole ordeal.

    Who Is Your Lord? Series

     | 7,086 views

    Life with Jesus should never be in addition to the lifestyle we led before we met Jesus. If that is the way it is in your life, then it will be very apparent to everyone that He’s only an addition and that He isn’t Lord and Savior of your life.

    Life, Everlasting, Part II – Who is your Lord? In Part I, we determined from Ezekiel 37 that, through the breath put in us by God when we give our life to Him, we have life. And through that breath we will know that He is the LORD. We also briefly touched upon those that claim activities, ...read more

    The famous atheist Frederick Nietzsche, who coined the phrase “God is dead,” once said, “Assert yourself. Care for nothing except yourself.

    Patience In Its Work Clothes

    Contributed by John Perry on Aug 6, 2011

    Patience is something that brings to mind the idea of doing nothing under difficult or trying circumstances. But the idea that the Bible gives us of patience is the thought of patience in its work clothes!
