For Such A Time As This…

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Jun 24, 2005

The challenge Esther received is found in Esther 4:14 and it may very well be the challenge that our Savior has for you at this point in your life.

Much Grace Was Upon Them All

Contributed by Chris Tiller on Dec 14, 2005

First, Jesus is alive. Really alive. Abundantly alive. Second, because Jesus is alive, a new community of people is formed-—people who demonstrate the reality and power of the risen Christ in their life together. Real life. Abundant life.

When Jesus walked the earth—teaching, and preaching, and healing—-strange things happened. Not strange as in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not. More like strange as in counter-intuitive. Strange as in turning upside-down what everyone knew to be true about how the world worked—what was important and ...read more

Because He Loved Me So

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Apr 7, 2023

Jesus, because he loved me, you, and our neighbors, offered his life, shed his innocent blood, that we might have life and have it more abundantly. Then He was raised to life and reigns for us in Heaven.

What Is All This Talk About Being Born Again?

Contributed by Neal Bishop on Jan 13, 2005

A small and simple explanation of what being born again is all about.

There are a number of belief systems in the world today, and naturally, they all claim to be “The Truth.” So, if we define truth as being relative to things that change, then what is presented by any belief system has to be equal, in validity, to anything else presented. This would be so because ...read more
