    What is the "unforgivable sin?"

    INTRODUCTION Macho men always want to brag about how strong they are. Some boys on a school playground were bragging. Johnny said, “My dad has a list of all the men he can beat up—and all your dads are on his list!” Later that afternoon a knock came on Johnny’s house and his dad answered the door. ...read more

    Rev. Mike Moseley helps us dive deep in Chapter 2 of 1 Peter by examining Jesus' critical role as the Cornerstone of our faith, and challenges us to see our need to place Him in the sole position of authority in our lives.

    There Is No Other Gospel Series

     | 6,774 views

    Man would never write a book about how sinful and wretched he is. The Bible will always point us to our need for a Savior, and Paul reminds the church in Galatia of this critical fact that many of them have seemed to have forgotten!

    There is no other Gospel Galatians, Part 1 Galatians 1:1-10 - Background: The churches in Galatia were formed partly of converted Jews and partly of Gentile converts. Paul asserts his apostolic character and the doctrines he taught, that he might confirm the Galatian churches in the faith of ...read more

     | 5,952 views

    The ministry of the Holy Spirit allows us to hear from God; to discern His voice. Therefore, prayer, meditation, and knowing the voice of Him is critical! Do we know His truth over the noise of everything else competing for our attention?

    Testing the Spirits 1 John Bible Study, Part 9 1 John 4:1-6 Introduction - John gives us an incredible truth to hold onto (20) -- We will fail, even though we desire to be holy and to live right for God -- However, even in that, God knows our heart and knows everything we are -- Even in ...read more

    Jesus's Death Series

     | 7,254 views

    When sharing our faith, we must understand that we participate in both the cross and the grave; our sin was the cause of His death. We cannot get to the resurrection without the death of Jesus, and it's critical we remember to share that!

    Jesus’s Death John 19:17-42 Following Pilate’s decision to crucify Him (through God’s authority) Jesus is taken to the place of Golgotha to be executed Romans have dialed into this brutal method; they are skilled at it ∆ A Cruel Punishment He was placed between two ...read more

     | 10,349 views

    Sharing the gospel next door and around the world is criticized by those around us, some who are in our churches. We need to share because we are told to do it and because people desprately need it to be released from the pain and penalty of wrongdoing.

    Jesus didn't always do things the way people expected Him to, including healing. Sometimes Jesus' healing was painful because it required people to face truth about themselves that people just don't like to face.

     | 5,495 views

    Let us be like Christ Jesus and be transformed —in our hearts and minds — into the gloriousness of God; and let us reflect the light and love of God for all to see, so that those with veiled faces can see the glorious face of God in us, and desire that to

    INTRO Ya know, sometimes it’s good for us to get out of our environment to see the glory of God, and to be even more thankful for all he’s done and given, for that which he is doing now, and forevermore will do for all of creation. I have to say, going on vacation last weekend to ...read more

    Jesus dealt with a woman who faced a desperate situation. She had faced an infirmity for twelve long years, and spent all she had in search of healing. When all she had left was faith, she discovered that she had all she needed.

    The Touch of Deliverance Mark 5: 24-34 As we continue through Mark’s gospel, we come to a woman who faced great difficulty in life.

    Obscuring God

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 19, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,457 views

    We need to see the Lord clearly. We need to see the Lord always before our faces. The only problem is that many of us are spiritually ADD and we allow the things of this world to obscure the face of the Lord. May the Lord help us to clear those away!

    Acts 2:22-25 (Let people find this while you say the following) In these verses Peter is in the middle of the recorded part of his sermon to those who were attracted to the sound of the might, rushing wind and to those proclaiming the wonders of God in foreign languages even though they were all ...read more

     | 4,430 views

    If we stand for Jesus, we will inevitably face the same kind of opposition that He did. How do we respond? His example gives us a clue as he faces both the unbelief of his own family, and the deadly opposition of israel's leaders.

    It’s been more than 20 years ago now since I initiated a lawsuit in the name of the church against the Washoe County School District.

    We see that Paul is faithful to Jesus Christ in whatever his circumstance. He faced numerous attempts on his life. He was on trial and struck in the face. In all these hardships Paul remained steadfast and whenever he had the chance, he shared the gospel with Governor Felix.

    The Background of Paul before Felix Here we find Paul in Caesarea standing before Felix the governor. Paul recently completed his third missionary journey and now he is beginning his Jerusalem to Rome ministry.
