    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 25, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,406 views

    Faith is so central to our salvation that there are those who believe believing is the ONLY thing we need to do to be saved. But is that true, and where did that idea come from?

    When Ego Rules

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 5, 2025
     | 248 views

    When ego rules, possibility collapses; when Christ reigns, humanity rises — sharing His life, not His throne, through divine power and grace.

    The Tower in the Heart “If God exists, then everything is possible.” That single conviction built the ark, parted the sea, and rolled the stone away. The moment a man or woman believes there is a living, limitless God, the boundaries of human reason start to melt like frost in sunlight. But ...read more

    In our text for today, the apostle Paul makes the amazing claim that now the church is God’s temple. And we’re not talking about church buildings or services, we are talking about the community of people.

    Alba 3-16-2025 GOD'S TEMPLE I Corinthians 3:16-17 Throughout history people have created structures to be used as places of worship, and offer sacrifices, and to meet with their god or gods.

     | 1,192 views

    For the next several Sundays, we will focus on the Good News of Jesus' birth and how that affected specific people as revealed in the gospels. It would appear that Luke is giving us a first hand report from Mary herself. The details are rather amazing.

    Is Jesus pleased with the Christmas that are celebrated everywhere? Many people celebrate Christmas but do not know the true meaning of Christmas. John 3:16 shows the true meaning of Christmas.

    Every December, hundreds of millions, even billions of people around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus. Throughout history, no one's birth has been celebrated as widely as Jesus. In general, we are happy when friends remember and celebrate our birthdays. Do you think Jesus is happy with ...read more
