The Work Of Wisdom

Contributed by Daren Mitchell on May 25, 2012

Is it a shock that the writer of Proverbs 31 used the metaphor of a wife and a mom to explain wisdom? It's not a shock to me.

The Work of Wisdom In honor of mothers day we’re going to talk about wisdom; which is appropriate considering how wisdom plays an active daily part in the life of a mom. We'll start with what the Bible says about wisdom with a Scripture you may wonder about at first. Why are we reading this ...read more

A brief background about John the Baptizer, who was Mark, and why would Jesus have to be Baptized? This was preached on a Sunday morning when an adult Baptism was performed.

A Charge Of Insanity

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 28, 2012

The charges against Jesus ranged all the way from being demon-possessed to being a mere man. Jesus’ answer to all these charges against Him was perceptive.

Tonight’s passage is a difficult one to break down and try to explain. Jesus has gone to Jerusalem and in verse 14 from last week Jesus has stepped up in public at the temple and began to preach. What we have been looking at the last two studies are the reactions to Jesus’ claims. We ...read more

Why Seek The Living Among The Dead?

Contributed by Doane Brubaker on Apr 25, 2011

That penetrating question of the angels to the women on resurrection morning leads to such great assurance that indeed we serve a risen Savior, that the grave is not our final destination and that we do find life when we look where it is found.

Why Seek the Living Among the Dead? Luke 24:5 Scripture Reading: Luke 23:50 – 24:12 It was completely logical for the women to go to Jesus’ tomb early that Sunday morning.
