IN THE SHADOW OF THE VALLEY Psalm 23 One of the most beloved Psalms of the Bible is Psalm 23. Psalm 23 likens us to sheep which are vulnerable.

Effectual Fervent Prayer Series

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Oct 21, 2013

Childlike Faith

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 7, 2018

Childlike Faith Mark 10:13-16 Have you ever known someone who refused to grow up? Kind of like when Tom Hanks played a kid in the 1988 movie, “Big”? Except sometimes, it’s not so cute, when adults act childish. Sometimes adults forget those key lessons from kindergarten, like learning how to share ...read more

The Simplicity Of Faith

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 7, 2019

Faith in Christ is not always easy, but simple. Elisha, Naaman, and his servants remind us to: 1. Offer a simple witness to someone in need 2. Encourage others to do the right thing, and 3. Accept what God offers you.

2 Kings 5:1-14 The Simplicity of Faith There is a saying: “Nothing is as simple as it seems.” Sometimes that’s true. Someone well-meaning gives you advice, and you’re thinking, “You don’t know the half of it!” Or you plan something out, and Murphy’s Law kicks into gear, and makes life a lot more ...read more

The Truth Of God

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Sep 7, 2023

God's Word is truth in a world of contradictions and falsehood. We must, as followers of Jesus Christ, stay firm in what Scripture teaches and demands of us, regardless of what the world, the flesh, and the devil say and do.

The Lord Jesus taught that the end times would be characterized by deceit, hatred of God, lies, malevolence, lack of love, and an intense persecution of believers. False teachers would plague the church (Matthew 24:11-12), and many who claim to be "Christians" will fall away from the ...read more

The Twelve Stones (Joshua 4)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Feb 5, 2025

Are traditions and memorials in violation of scriptural principles? Let's begin in Joshua 4.

Is it good to create memorials of important events? May the church create traditions that remember important Christian events or are we restricted to the scriptures alone? Let’s begin in Joshua 4.
