     | 18,790 views

    In sermon 2 of this series, we address the "lust of the eyes", or the sins of the inner man. Again, we identify them, recognize how they enter into our lives, and what the Bible says about dealing with them. Everyone, from the sinner on the street to the

    KEY SCRIPTURE: 1 John 2:15-17 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

    A Fragrant Offering

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Sep 3, 2022

     | 1,886 views

    Our sacrifices to God are fragrant offerings to Him.

    The character is Jonah and I want to begin by considering the sacrifices of the Hebrew people to God. The Law of Moses required the people to make a variety of sacrifices to God. The important point of the sacrifice was that it was to come from the heart, not merely be an outward activity of simply ...read more

    Belonging At The King's Table Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 3,868 views

    I love this story! It’s a story of incredible, undeserved kindness. We live in a harsh world, and while there are stories of kindness out there, it’s far too uncommon. The world will show kindness to its own, but we are called to show kindness to anyone and everyone, even our enemies. But why?

    1. Mephibosheth Who was Mephiboshet? —Background: II Sam. 4:4 —He was a cripple. Our culture has changed certain words, such as “lame” or “dumb.” Mephibosheth was a cripple, that is, he was lame. —He was Jonathan’s son. As you’ll recall, Jonathan was David’s best friend.

    The Double Minded Christian

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jul 12, 2022
     | 6,568 views

    A double minded Christian is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. Their loyalty is divided between God and the world. They live more by sight and less by faith. They are neither hot or cold, just lukewarm.

    TEXT: James 1:5-8 (NLT) "If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking. But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown ...read more

    What is penance? It is an act of self-abasement, mortification or devotion performed to show sorrow. What is repentance? It is to turn from sin and dedicate oneself, to feel regret or contrition. What is confession? It is a disclosure of one's sins in sacrament of reconciliation, ...read more

    Why Should We Participate In Fasting?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 28, 2022
     | 882 views

    In this passage of Scripture, God was asking the people why they had fasted. They were urged to be merciful and just people. Do our actions resemble the actions of the Jews from our reading?

    In verses 1-7: For the past 70 years, individuals had been holding a fast in August to recollect the annihilation of Jerusalem. Since Jerusalem was being rebuilt, they went to the Temple to inquire as to whether they needed to proceed with this yearly fast. God did not address their inquiry ...read more

    Genesis Chapter Sixteen Series

    Contributed by Tom Shepard on Jan 30, 2023

     | 1,814 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Sixteen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER SIXTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is Sarai gives Hagar her handmaid to Abram to have a child. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 16 Sarai, being barren, gives Hagar her handmaid to Abram: whom afterwards she treats hardly, having been despised by her. The angel ...read more
