    7 Of Life's Most Important Questions....how Will You Answer?

     | 10,438 views

    There have been a lot of questions written in the Bible. This morning I would like to take 7 of these questions and ask them to you. Answer them in your heart. Allow the Holy Spirit to either confirm or convict your heart if you are living by your answer.

    I love to watch game shows. My family and I watch the new Bible trivia game show, The Greatest American Bible Challenge. I watch with anticipation and try to answer the questions before the contestants do. Even though it is just a game show, I believe it is important for us to know the answers to ...read more

    Something About Prayer Series

    Contributed by Leighton (Lee) Vary on Nov 7, 2016
     | 9,228 views

    No prayer is ever wasted. God hears and answers every prayer. His answer may by "No," "Yes," or "Not now." The underlying principle behind the significance of persistent prayer has to be the truth that no prayer is ever wasted effort.

    I. Introduction A. Three men worked in the Empire State Building on the 102nd floor. One day the elevator was out of service, so they had to walk up to their office. To pass the time, they decided that one would sing a song, one would tell a joke, and the third would tell a sad story - each ...read more

    This is a focus on Jesus and his teaching about how God answers prayer. Sometimes he answers with Presents (gifts/literal blessings) and sometimes he answers with something better, his Presence.

The pharmacist asks, ”What size, small medium or large?” "One of each." he said, "I’ve been seeing this girl for a while and she’s really beautiful.

    Some of the events leading up to the marriage of Isaac and Rebecca have been institutionalized in the traditional Jewish wedding ceremony. Before the bride and bridegroom stand under the chuppah, they participate in a special ceremony called badeken (veiling).

    Tempering Our Understanding Of Miracles

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Mar 21, 2023
     | 945 views

    Miracles do happen. However, not all the time. Faith can be shattered by the expectations of miracles occurring. Not all prayers can be answered. Tough lesson I learned early on.

Koplitz John 11:1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus ...read more

    We live in a world where we have more ‘speak-ers’ than ‘listen-ers’. Everyone wants to be heard. Give opinions. Suggest an idea. Give counsel. Make recommendations. But no one wants to listen.

    Hide And Seek

     | 1,320 views

    If God seems hidden, maybe we’re not looking in the right place. We have to move to a different place, stand at a different angle, look from a different perspective, before we can find God in the answer.

    One Sunday morning a little girl in her Sunday best was running so she wouldn’t be late for church. Maybe it was daylight savings time.... As she ran she kept praying, “Dear God, please don’t let me be late to church. Please don’t let me be late to church...” As she was running she tripped and ...read more
