    Contributed by Craig Benner on Mar 17, 2012
     | 3,144 views

    The tendency is to avoid being concerned with the truth when life is a big party. But when the pressures of life are applied, and one understands that he has to be responsible; then truth means everything. It is high time for you to be excited about the

    EAGERNESS FOR THE TRUTH Phil. 1:15-20 15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: 16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: 17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel. ...read more

  • In This Together

    Contributed by Jason Jones on Jun 11, 2012
     | 9,746 views

    What do we think of Church? Are we the unified body that Paul discusses Christ had called it to be or are we caught up in what we define of as a "church"? We, as a body of believers, should be in this together to glorify God.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,216 views

    A response to claims that "evidence" that Jesus was married is “apt to send jolts through the world of biblical scholarship - and beyond.”

    Was Jesus Married? “Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.” 1 Timothy 4:7 “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” 1 Peter 3:15 Popular characters tend to be used, ...read more

  • The Power Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 4, 2022
     | 7,674 views

    Disciples are formed not informed. Jesus did not just teach the disciples. They learned in the situations like witnessing to the woman at the well. The impressions burned in their mind. This is the “Organic Discipleship” process.

    The gospels record many occasions when Jesus addressed large crowds. But when we take an overview of the Gospels we discover that his speaking to the large crowds is not what made the lasting impact. What carried the ministry of Jesus after his death was the time he invested with small ...read more

  • Showing Love To A Thousand Generations!

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Mar 6, 2016
     | 4,695 views

     | 2,661 views

    We consider how the calling of the fishermen affects our lives, and allows us to focus on our own calling and why it is important for us to share our faith beginnings with others.

    In the name of the Living God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. As I sat thinking about our Gospel this morning, a film that I watched a number of years ago came to mind, a comedy called School of life, starring Ryan Reynolds. Reynolds was a school teacher whose job was to teach his students ...read more

  • The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ: A Refresher Course In Evidence

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 10, 2023
     | 1,643 views

    The Scriptures tell of the event of the resurrection of Jesus Christ as being an undeniable historical fact with eyewitness and secondary evidence to back it that would be admissible in any objective court of law. This is no case of wishful thinking, but the conclusion of a promise kept.

    If we were to present the case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ in a court of law, we would have to first refute the notion or belief that this was nothing more than "faith" on the part of the apostles and all who have followed Him throughout history. I have pointed out in a recent ...read more
