    If you have grown up in church, there is a good chance that somewhere along the way, you have heard this phrase, “Be in the world, but not of the world.” And depending on what church you grew up in, that could mean all kinds of things…but let’s be honest, sometimes that idea is what turns ...read more

    Honoring The Ultimate Father Series

     | 2,669 views

    Friend, there’s more than one kind of profanity. Not all profanity takes place at the construction site or a bar. A lot of profanity takes place inside the church house. I want to tell you what kind of profanity it is.

    Happy Father’s Day to you all. You have to have some “dad jokes on Father's Day,” right? When does a joke become a “dad joke”? When it becomes apparent. What do you call a thousand rabbits walking backward? A receding hairline. My friend was showing me his tool shed and pointed to a ladder. ...read more

Although the old man and his clothes were spotlessly clean, he wore jeans, a denim shirt, and boots that were very worn and ragged. In his hand he carried a worn-out old hat and an equally worn-out Bible. The ...read more

    Does God Exist? - A Look At Atheism, Agnosticism, And Theism

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 31, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 960 views

    The question 'Does God exist?' has only two possible direct answers: Either 'yes,' which is theism, and 'no,' which is atheism.

    The agnostic responds with 'I don't know' and 'no one knows,' which is actually an affirmative answer that has never been established, so the question is meaningless because they are not direct answers. (See ...read more

     | 2,928 views

    When the Word of the Lord is truly preached, the Lord of the Word is speaking. Are you listening?

    “And they began calling Barnabas, Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.” Every once in a while we preachers get a reality check concerning just how well we are communicating and how well people are listening to the things we say from the pulpit. That’s good. I think ...read more

    Harnessing The Power Of The Tongue

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jan 12, 2003
    based on 124 ratings
     | 20,200 views

    We should seek to harness the tongue because: (1) It has great power to do good and evil (2) Our speech reveals our heart (3) It glorifies God.

    In last week’s message, I gave four reasons why it can be a spiritually beneficial practice for us to make and keep resolutions. They stimulate us to think about what it means to be godly; what it means to be conformed to the image of Christ. They express our faith in God’s promises to transform ...read more

     | 21,135 views

    One of the harshest questions Jesus asked was asked of the Pharisees: "How shall you escape Hell?" As much a byword of legalism as they were, we must be careful we don’t fall into the traps that ensnared them.
