From Death To Life Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 28, 2018

There's a repetitive theme in Scripture: heroes and heroines of the Bible seemingly all go through the process of being given a vision by God, followed by the death of that vision, and ultimately the rebirth of that vision. How did that pattern apply to Jesus and how does it apply to us?

Something More

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 3, 2023

Watch yourselves, so that you may not lose what we have worked for, but may win a full reward. Everyone who goes on ahead and does not ...read more

God Abides In Small Places

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 21, 2022

When trying to start a new church, we often think we should send church planters to the largest populated areas. However, both John the Baptist and Jesus preached in the wilderness, and people came to them where they were!

The Lord can be found abiding – and alive and well – in small places; and it is very important for us to be reminded of this fact because of America’s belief that “bigger ...read more
