    "They Took Offense At Him”

    Contributed by Bruce Lee on Jun 3, 2025
     | 229 views

    Today I want to talk about what happened after Jesus had performed three great miracles in the NT.

    “They Took Offense at Him” “Jesus left there and went to his hometown, accompanied by his disciples. 2 When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. “Where did this man get these things?” they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What ...read more

    The Suffering Church (The Church Of Smyrna 2 Of 7)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jul 15, 2025
     | 479 views

    You will notice that of the seven churches that John addressed, he gave the least amount of space to the church of Smyrna.

    All he had to say about the church of Smyrna he was able to cover in just four verses. However, we must not think less of this church, or feel they were insignificant just because there are less verses given to them. Why? Because there were only two of the seven churches ...read more

    When Heaven Sends Help: Understanding The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 9, 2025
     | 412 views

    In sports, we often talk about “home-field” advantage. But the Holy Spirit is better than the “home field” advantage. Again, He is the outside power you need. He is the outside power you need for life, for holiness, and for witness.

    Just before Jesus died on the cross, He sat the Disciples down for a lengthy training session. Knowing He was only hours from departing, Jesus poured in them. It’s right here that Jesus introduces the Holy Spirit. This is known as the Farewell Discourse by Bible scholars. Today’s Scripture “If ...read more

    2 Corinthians Series: That Ain't Jesus Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Oct 7, 2025
     | 282 views

    The Apostle Paul uses irony to engage the Corinthians’ attention, sarcasm to sting their heart and emotions, and satire to convince the Corinthians that false teachers have been misleading them and they are believing so-called truth about the Gospel that is not true at all.

    The Gift That Breaks Barriers

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 117 views

    Tongues build up the church only through clarity and love. True evidence of the Spirit is Christlike character and mission-driven unity.

    Why This Matters Today There has never been a time in history when God’s people didn’t desperately need the Holy Spirit. We need Him the way lungs need oxygen, the way a branch needs the vine, the way a traveler needs the road home. Without Him, faith collapses under its own weight. Without Him, ...read more

    Find comfort, confidence, and cheer in the promise of Advent.

    In the 1970’s, pet rocks were popular. Well, that kooky fad is making a comeback in South Korea according to the Wall Street Journal. They quote Lee So-hee, a 30-year-old office worker, who used to live alone in Seoul. That changed a couple of years ago, just before Christmas, when a friend gave ...read more

    When You Know It’s Going To Be A Bad Day Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 19, 2025
     | 185 views

    When you know you’re going to have a bad day, affirm God’s justice; affirm God’s authority; and affirm God’s mercy. It will help you get through the day.

    According to a recent survey, the average American knows their day is going to be bad by 8:36 a.m. in the morning. For example, they say, “You know you’re going to have a bad day if you wake up feeling sick (35%), if you suffer from poor sleep (31%), or if you start the day with a headache (29%).” ...read more

    When You Feel Abandoned

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 5, 2026
     | 91 views

    Psalm 22 reveals that honest lament is not faithlessness but faithful endurance, culminating in Christ’s cry from the cross. Because Jesus entered abandonment for us, silence is never absence, and suffering is never the end of the story.

    Have you ever felt that God has left you? Not in a theoretical sense. Not the kind of question that shows up in a classroom discussion or a late-night debate about faith and reason. I mean something much more personal than that—something that settles into your chest and refuses to leave. Have you ...read more

    God is still in control and is allowing him to operate under His control for a season. Although it may seem that his conquest here is an utter victory it is only external with persecution, martyrdom, and political suppression.

Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - In 2025 32 people were killed by ICE making it the deadliest year for ICE detainees since 2004 95% percent of these deaths were preventable if adequate medical care had been administered.

    When facing impossible situations, trust that God is present, fighting for you, making a way, and calling you to move forward in faith and prayer.

    If you’ve ever felt hemmed in—pressure in front of you, problems behind you, and panic rising inside you—you’re in familiar company. The people of God have been there. Red Sea ahead, Pharaoh behind, fear within. And right in the middle of that tight place, God whispered hope. He always does. He has ...read more
