    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Sep 19, 2016
     | 7,424 views

    The virtues of goodness and kindness do not come to us naturally and just like the other virtues of Jesus we need to be taught them. Imagine if you will two small children wanting the same toy at the same time. You get the point. We have to be taught.

    Seeking the best for others Kindness and goodness 1 Peter 3:8-18 8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble. 9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult.

    Have you ever considered how improbably it is that Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies made about Him in the Old Testament? (He did, of course.) We'll take a look at Psalm 2, as well as other OT passages and discover more reasons to put our faith in Him.

    Blessed Are The Ermine Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Feb 13, 2013
     | 8,289 views

    While we tend to focus on the purity of such things as food, water, and air, we would be wise to focus more intently on the purity of heart that Jesus speaks of here. A purity if not possessed will prevent us from seeing God both now and eternally.

    Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. The ermine is a short-tailed weasel that has the unique feature of having its fur change to a snow-white color in the win¬ter. God created this animal with this feature to protect it from others. The ermine instinctively protects his white coat ...read more

    These things “To Be Announced” are throughout the Bible. In them we can have absolute hope and faith as God’s plan comes to fruition even in an election year.

    To Be Announced Isaiah 9:1-7 There are times when people wait anxiously for news because the news can have great consequences for many people. Waiting for the results of a Presidential election for instance. Depending on who wins will determine the fate of the nation. Lately my wife and I have ...read more

    #6 Palm Sunday Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Mar 29, 2021
     | 2,790 views

    The process of recognizing where we are on the road and why we are cheering is exactly what lent has been all about - recognizing Jesus willingness to enter into our pain is a reason to celebrate as well as mourn. We celebrate because of His willingness and mourn because of inability to not sin.

    “Lent is one of the oldest observations on the Christian calendar. Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter.

    We are instructed to give thanks. Some of us struggle to do that because we aren't sure that God has blessed us lately. Situations and circumstances cause us to wonder if God even deserves our thanks! The truth is that we are loaded!
