    Spiritually Paralyzed

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 9, 2018
     | 21,361 views

    Spiritual dryness, or spiritual paralysis can slip up on us when we least expect it. How does our spiritual life compare to the plight of the crippled man by the Pool of Bethesda?

    For the past few Sundays we have been discussing spiritual growth. It started as we talked specifically about what blaspheming the Holy Spirit is. The next Sunday we talked about how the Holy Spirit indwells you. We have looked at how Jesus is the Living Water in our lives and that if we accept ...read more

    "Is Not This The Carpenter...?”

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 28, 2022
     | 4,103 views

    I would like to draw your attention to the section of the Bible that tells us that Jesus was a carpenter.

We read about the last three-and-a half years Jesus spent on earth in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. In their accounts we read that He went everywhere ...read more
