Testimony From Prison Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Mar 18, 2023

While the Philippians wanted to know how Paul was doing so that they might further provide aid to help reduce his suffering, Paul wanted his “partner” to know that while he was in chains, the word of God certainly was not being restricted!

The Mighty Name Of Jesus Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

The name of Jesus is a powerful weapon in spiritual warfare; however, His name must not be taken lightly or used inappropriately. Also, Jesus promised to be present in power among His followers whenever they acted in His name.

When we speak the precious and powerful name of Jesus, it’s not a magic word. We must be wholly submitted to Jesus to use it. - Dean Sherman(1) The name of Jesus is the most powerful weapon in spiritual warfare. Jesus is the Word (Jn 1:1, 14), and by the Word and through His holy name “the ...read more

Just Want To Bless Somebody

The Call To Faithfulness Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on Sep 25, 2016

Knowing the end of his life is near, Jesus needs to remake His disciples’ understanding of what their responsibilities are as they await His return. And so Jesus tells them a story that had a familiar ring: The Good Samaritan

Who Is Jesus

Contributed by John Telgren on Feb 23, 2017

Many people have opinions about who Jesus is, but opinions are just that . . . opinions. What really matters is what the Bible tells us about Jesus.

Many, many people have heard of Jesus. But many people really do not know who Jesus is. Was he some ancient sage? Was a he merely a religious teacher? Who is this Jesus?

Emotions Are A Gift From God Series

Contributed by David Owens on Feb 15, 2021

Deborah The Delightful Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 11, 2021

The record of Deborah is in the Bible because God inspired it to be there. It was real history, and God ordained history. It is there for an example of how God uses women as well as men in the highest roles of leadership.

I have enjoyed war stories and war heroes since I was a small boy watching the news on the movies screen in the local theater. I never realized, however, that not all of the heroes were men. I heard of Joan of Arc when I got into the upper grades of school, but I never had the concept of the ...read more
