    Love Is More Than Kissing

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 11, 2015
     | 7,082 views

    There are many definitions of love. It's easy to say you love someone, but your actions tell the truth. Orpah & Ruth are contrasts of what love really means.

    LOVE IS MORE THAN KISSING Ruth 1:1-18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man once commented after a revival service to the evangelist, "If you could see how people don't pay attention! And they get up and wander around. It’s terrible!” The evangelist answered, "If you think the back of their ...read more

    With a modern twist, a Muslim Reporter travels to Jerusalem to Interview Jesus before His death and meets people touched by Jesus ministry on the way.

    John was in prison and needed to know if Jesus was really the person promised by God as the Messiah. I’m sure that he knew Jesus as hi cousin, but I wonder if he knew him as the Messiah. I’m sure that after baptizing Jesus he had to be convinced that Jesus was truly the One. Perhaps ...read more

    Our God Is Greater

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 15, 2019
     | 12,453 views

    John declared that the God within us is greater than the god of this world. Paul revealed that if God was for us, who or what could possibly come against us? These two statements reveal attributes of God that complement each other, and provide comfort and assurance for believers.

    Our God is Greater 1 John 4:4; Romans 8:31 Today I would like to conclude the series dealing with profound statements in the Bible by actually considering two statements from different Apostles. These two statements are personal favorites, having brought much comfort to my life over the years. ...read more

    "Growing In Grace Together”

    Contributed by Austin Calder on Apr 21, 2020
     | 5,296 views

    Grace is a terribly misunderstood word and defining it sufficiently is very difficult. Some of the most detailed theology textbooks do not offer any concise definition of the term. Someone came up with this acronym: GRACE is God’s---Riches--- At---Christ’s---Expense.

    That’s not a bad way to characterize grace. One of the best-known definitions of grace is only three words: God’s unmerited favor. A. W. Tozer expanded on that idea by saying, “Grace is the good pleasure of God that allows him to bestow benefits on the undeserving.” The key word in what have ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,850 views

    Do we believe that God is relevant to the needs of today? Do we believe that God is applicable to our needs today? If we believe that God is the solution, then what are we doing about it?

    INTRODUCTION: Today there is a lot of talk about churches needing to be relevant. What that usually means for those who might believe this way is that churches must change their style – change their music, change their preaching, change their approach, change their methods to fit the culture ...read more

    The Prodigal God

     | 10,058 views

    We don’t want to take God’s forgiveness for granted. Rather, we should be blown away by God’s grace, overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude that permeates all that we are, all that we do. And we should give this grace freely to others in forgiveness.

    Luke 15:11-32 The Prodigal God When people make mistakes, they should be punished for them! After all, they’ve brought it on themselves! And if we don’t look out after ourselves, who will? It’s a cutthroat world out there. Every person for themselves. And truth be told, it feels ...read more
