    This message is about how we can get so caught up looking at and desiring something that someone else has that we fail to walk in the blessings that God has already given us.

    The First Evangelistic Sermon

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 11, 2023
     | 973 views

    The fall of humanity as recorded in Genesis 3 shows the consequences of rebellion but also the promise of redemption from a merciful God who desires that no one perish, but that everyone would come to Him for everlasting life.

    The first eleven chapters of the book of Genesis are an authentic record of the beginning of the universe and the world. It is the work of Almighty God and is a testimony to logic, rationality, meaning, purpose, and the precise design of what we know as science. Within the first two chapters ...read more

    Get A Glimpse

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 30, 2022
     | 2,382 views

    In Exodus 33, Moses gets alone with God to be in His presence. His experience with God was special, and yet it’s the same experience which God desires to have with every one of us.

    Illustration: Is there someone, maybe a loved one or a close friend, who you enjoy spending time with? When it comes to that special person, talking on the phone is good, or doing Facetime, but nothing beats being with them in their presence. In Exodus 33, Moses gets alone with God to be in His ...read more

    Herod is presented as a frivolous person, who desired to see some amusing tricks performed by one whom he probably regarded as some kind of magician. To such a person Jesus had nothing to say.
