The Book We Skip And The God We Need

Contributed by Scott Maze on Oct 27, 2025

How would you like to pray to this god to answer your desperate prayers each day? Prayer would be a gamble each and every time. If you were single and you were praying for love and marriage, this kind of mercurial god might give you Hannibal Lecter or Jeffrey Epstein for a boyfriend!

Find the book of Nahum with me, a small book with a massive view of God. You won’t wake up one day to find Nahum trending on social media. If the Bible were a playlist, Nahum would be the song you’d skip every time. It’s the book we totally ignore. But we shouldn’t ignore it. Here’s why you ...read more

God's Prescription For Patience Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Jan 26, 2006

James is very concerned about how you react to the pain and suffering that comes into your life. This sermon teaches you how to respond to injustice, pain, suffering, delay and difficulty in a godly way.

Scripture Stanislaw J. Lec once said, “You must first have a lot of patience to learn to have patience.” I wonder how many would agree with that statement. It does seem that those who are patient have large doses of it to begin with, doesn’t it? In our text for today, James gives us God’s ...read more

Showing Up For The Battle Is Not Enough!

Contributed by David Wilson on Jul 30, 2012

The Israelites show up for Battle but are delayed because they allow Goliath to define the terms of battle. God's people need to get into the valley because it isn't fought on the hillside.

Showing Up For Battle I Samuel 17 Preached on Sunday, July 29, 2012 This is one of the most difficult sermons I have ever had to preach. I thought it would be Wednesday evening’s Bible Study, but the Lord would not let me escape preaching it on Sunday morning. The story found in ...read more

All Things Work Together For Good

Contributed by David Shoots on Aug 14, 2021

In our rush for immediate fulfilment of our desires, we have replaced the concept of delayed gratification to instant gratification. As individuals and as a culture, we have exchanged independence for entitlement.

Romans 8:28-29 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. WORKING ...read more
