"Our Identity In Christ (Iv): We Are Children Of God”

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jun 2, 2021

Knowing who we are in Christ is vital. Without it, we can be confused, lost, and have no meaning and purpose in our lives, and therefore, fail to accomplish God's plans for us. This is the fourth sermon series on "Our Identity in Christ."

Many in the younger generation suffer from identity confusion. When we ask them “Who are you?” they cannot answer. They do not know where their value comes from. Some even question the most basic things about themselves, like those who suffer from gender dysphoria and do not know whether they are ...read more

Don't Offend My Children, Or Else

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Sep 21, 2021

Even as Jesus suffered offense at the hands of others, every Christian shall likewise suffer. How we respond to this offense is important.

Don't Offend MY Children, or Else! Mark 9:38-50 It is a bit odd that this week’s gospel text from the lectionary begins with John’s response to what Jesus had just said. It is poor practice to start in the middle of a paragraph. Before we can analyze this text, we need to ask: “What was John ...read more

Contributed by Margaret Olubiyi on Nov 13, 2024

“And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.” Deut. 6:6-7

What does it mean to fortify your children with God’s Word? Before we delve into the message, let us first understand what the term “fortifying” means.

Pathway To The Blessed Life

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 13, 2021

Disciples Contend For Greatness

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 14, 2012
