    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 4, 2021
     | 3,698 views

    Take the Word of God with you—whether you’re an older man, an older woman, a young woman or a young man, or a child. Let God’s Word fill you and move you. May it be said of us, “Those are people who really know what the Bible teaches. And they also put it into practice.”

We believe that our God is Triune, that all people are dead in sin, and that we have new life through faith in Christ. As ...read more

    The three points of this sermon and a good bit of the content is borrowed from a sermon by Ray Pritchard (see the resources at the end of the sermon). The key to facing hard times is learning to wait on the Lord.

    Despite evil’s noise and deception, Christ’s victory and justice are certain, so believers can live with hope, courage, and confidence in God’s ultimate reign.

    Some of us walked in today with the week still clinging to our shoulders. Headlines that hurt. News that nags. A heart that wonders, Will evil always get the microphone? Will lies always lead the parade? Revelation 20 sings a louder, better song. It tells us that the serpent is not sovereign, that ...read more

    Judas - A Man Who Became A Traitor

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,140 views

    When you picture Judas what do you see? A monster, or a devilish figure? Do you ever see yourself? The truth is we have a lot more in common with Judas than we care to admit. In this lesson we'll explore the life of Judas and how it relates to our own.
