Prayer In A Desperate Place Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Mar 5, 2014

What stops you from praying? Are you too proud to pray? Are you trying to find your own solution? Don't wait to pray - God is listening now.

Recycling Our Pain Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Nov 3, 2014

Our scripture for today falls into this category of verses I don’t understand when I first read them. Here it is. Happy are those who are persecuted.

“Recycling our Pain” Matthew 5:10 In my personal study of the gospels one of the things I have noticed is that some of the teachings of Jesus are just very difficult for us to follow. At times when we read them they don’t even make sense. For instance, Jesus said: • If ...read more

Restrictive Religion Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on May 3, 2018

If you want to be free from a guilty conscience, don’t depend on restrictive religion, which is limited by its procedures, its place, its people, and its purifying power.

Two neighbor boys were the best of friends on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. On Sunday, however, they didn’t talk to each other, because one was a Catholic and the other was a Baptist.

Down In My Heart!!! 


Contributed by Bishop Johnathan Hester on Jul 24, 2018

You don’t have to have it. All figured out. Up in your head. You just be sure. You believe it. Down in. Your heart.

New Year’s Eve has a different kind of feel to it than other times that we celebrate during the year.

When you fail, don’t try to save yourself. Instead, realize you’re a loser (we all are), and rely on the Lord to turn your failure into victory!

Recently, I came across some cynical observations on life and work: Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool; the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese; borrow money from a pessimist – they don't expect it back; if at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence ...read more

What Is Humility And How Do We Get It?

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 20, 2016

"Jesus did that to the extent of surrendering Himself to the Father’s will and dying on the cross for our salvation. You don’t get more other-centered than that."

Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time 2016 Almost forty years ago, the movie Alien frightened a couple of generations of Americans with its notion that a monster could grow inside someone’s chest and then burst out to cause death and destruction.

They Won't Believe Unless They Hear It From You Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 6, 2010

We don't witness because we see only downsides; yet many will go to their graves without faith unless lay people preach the Gospel by word and deed

Monday of 10th Week in Course 7 June 2010 You Will Be My Witnesses Why do we hesitate to boldly share our faith with those we meet?

When God wants to change a community He is more concerned about whether the hearts of His people are ready to be used then with those who don’t know Him yet.

God’s voice do we really believe He can speak to us and that we can hear Him? It’s funny because people talk about hearing from God all the time, but do we really expect to hear from Him, audibly? Today we are going to look at a passage where the Luke says that the Apostle Paul had a vision where ...read more

Contributed by Brian Bill on Nov 7, 2010

When addressing an atheist, Jesus would go to the Word of God to show that there is ample evidence for believing in God. The problem is that some don't want to believe, not that they can't believe.
