The Place Of The Skull – The Scarcity Of Essentials (7/12) Series

Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Oct 12, 2020

We are living unprecedented times. We ask ourselves what would Jesus do? This good question can be misleading. Rather we should ask, what did Jesus do? He was born into an era of injustice, violence and pain. He was the victim of abuse and injustice. What did He do?

Habakkuk’s praise was not dependent upon his circumstances and neither should our praise be dependent upon our circumstances. Even if our whole world is coming unglued, we will praise and worship Almighty God. Even if we lose everything, we will rejoice in the LORD and spin around in joy.

Does God Work In Mysterious Ways?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 25, 2024

One of the first things every Christian needs to learn about God is that He is incomprehensible, which means we are not capable of fully understanding Him.

However, that does not mean He is mysterious because He has revealed Himself quite extensively in the Bible, nature, and especially in Jesus, who shows us a wonderful picture of what the Triune God is like, to the point that we can truly and intimately know Him well. I hear the phrase "God ...read more

Who Was God Trying To Catch?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 10, 2019

Many times when we read the story of Jonah, our focus is on the significance of the great fish. But should that be our focus? This message looks at the message of Jonah that we often miss.

Tonight, we’re going to have an opportunity to get into a story that’s very familiar to all of us. But I want to look at it from the vantage point of “Who was God trying to catch?” The Holy Spirit speaks to each one of us and He speaks to us individually with words specifically to us.

Faithfulness And Goodness: Overcoming Hypocrisy Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Feb 22, 2023

Kamran was a violent man who sold drugs & weapons in Iran. A friend gave him a New Testament, & for 5 consecutive days, Kamran devoured it. He soon gave his life to Christ. Where Kamran used to sell drugs and weapons, a church now met in his home.

It seems as if corruption and scandal is everywhere these days. Goodness and faithfulness are rare commodities in our day. If goodness and faithfulness were sold on the mercantile exchange in Chicago, their very rarity would cause their prices to soar to unprecedented heights. Scandals are ...read more
