Frustration and disapointment in ourselves and the habits that can result. Even those who we think are the most spiritual, can fall to this torment. This was presented to a breakfast ministry for the homeless Sept 1, 2002

Good morning. I want to first thank you all who were here last week. You invited God to join us here and he came with bells on. What happened down here last week was something I’ll remember for quite some time. As my wife put it, it evolved into something that was so unstructured…but organized. ...read more

You Have To Be Kidding

Contributed by John Raulerson on Oct 6, 2005

James’readers must have been amazed when he told them to count it all joy when they fall into trials. James was not kidding and explained how trials can be a friend and not a foe.

YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING! James 1:2-11 There are times in life when you hear something that sounds so outlandish that your first remark is "You have to be kidding!"

Resurrection Revelations

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Apr 13, 2020

Without the resurrection Christianity falls apart. The resurrection of Jesus is the most crucial event in Christian history. It not only matters, it also reveals some things. What does the resurrection of Jesus reveal?

RESURRECTION REVELATIONS I read an article by Victor Knowles titled, Why the Resurrection Matters. It touched on many key factors, describing the importance of Jesus' resurrection. While it was necessary that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, without the resurrection his death would've ...read more

A man named Gregory P. Elder told of growing up on the Atlantic Coast. And what he loved to do as a child was to spend his time down at the beach. For hours each day, he’d sit on the sand and build castles and intricate cities. But one year his joy in these creations was threatened by ...read more

Guilty But Not As Charged Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

This passage makes it clear that man does not need to be totally depraved to be totally out of God's will, and that he who stands must beware less he fall.

A close study of the account of the fall of man has done more to open my eyes to the danger of tradition than any other study I have done. Those who profess to take it literally have done much in making it mythological by using it to teach lessons that have no basis in the text itself. Those who ...read more
