Heaven's Open Door Policy

Contributed by Scott Maze on Mar 3, 2025

The Bible says you can open up your innermost thoughts and just spill them out on the ground before Jesus. He’s not going to look at you like, “Oh gross!” He’s not going to laugh at you or mock you.

We are beginning the new year by praying together as a church. Maybe you are not sure of yourself when it comes to prayer. If prayer were a high school sport, you’re not sure you’d receive a “letter” on your varsity jacket for prayer. Many of you have picked up the little book, 21 Days of Prayer. ...read more

No Confidence In The Flesh Series

Contributed by Dan Campbell on Apr 25, 2005

All this leads me to an important subject I have been wanting to address. What is it? It is the temptation to believe that earthly honors will automatically result in heavenly rewards.

IT’S TIME TO LAUGH NO CONFIDENCE IN THE FLESH Philippians 3:1-11 A while ago I talked with a man who said that he needed to work harder at being happier. That got my attention. He said he’d been raised in an ultraserious home. He said, My parents taught us that we could achieve whatever we ...read more

An Eternal Weight Of Glory Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 18, 2011

We should be grateful for God’s earthly, physical blessings and protection, but we should be even more grateful for the eternal blessings he gives us.

An Eternal Weight of Glory (2 Corinthians 4:7-18 with Psalm 116) My view is that 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 is based on Psalm 116 (the 2 Cor. passage is a midrash). See if you agree. The “starting text,” Psalm 116:3-19 3 The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold ...read more

Lawful Authority Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 25, 2011

Some authority is built into the fabric of God's very creation, and our response to earthly authority - whether we wield it or submit to it - reflects our acceptance of God's authority.

Many scholars and preachers treat today's passage as an extension of last week's exhortation for husbands and wives to submit to one another. They call the section between chapter 5 verse 21 and chapter 6 verse 9 "house codes." Paul almost certainly drew from well-known early Christian teachings ...read more
