    Can God supply all your needs? The Disciples struggled with that idea... and so do many of us. Why do we have such a hard time trusting God in this and how can we learn to believe Him more?

    OPEN: I once read the true story of a family that was sitting down at the dinner table for their evening meal. But one of the girls wasn’t happy because they were having leftovers, and she complained about it. The dad was not happy about that and spent a few moments explaining to her ...read more

    As we begin a new year, rather than simply making the same old resolutions that we never keep, let's look to some ideas the Apostle Paul shared with us, and determine to make and keep these "New Life Resolutions".

    New Life Resolutions Pastor Wilson Spencer Liberty Baptist Church, McEwen, TN January 1st, 2012 Philippians 3:13-15 “13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, ...read more

    Now I know that many people have a problem with the idea that baptism is for the remission of sins . . . To them, baptism has nothing to do with GOD’S plan of salvation. To them, to suggest baptism is necessary . . . is to deny we are justified by

    Pergamum was a center of religion. There were many temples to many false Gods, and out of this God chose to establish a true church. However, Satan had ideas of his own. Perhaps he could destroy the church from within.

    In our new technologically advanced society the idea of a “Superman” or “Superwoman” has given birth to “Transhumanism. Will it lead to a “Singularity” of machine and humanity creating a hybrid species? A.I. instead of the Great I AM? What about prophecy

     | 6,268 views

    There’s a time, for all of us, I think when we believe…but we don’t have the foggiest idea what that means. That must be a little like what the first disciples of Jesus Christ felt.

    Luke 24:13-35 “The Eyes Have It!!!” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN I remember a time, long ago and far away… …on a distant planet… …no… …that’s not right… I remember a time when I was asked by the associate pastor of my church to read the ...read more

    A look at struggles we have with the idea that God gets to shape us rather than us being in charge of our lives ourselves. What does it mean to let Him shape us like a potter shapes the clay?

    WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO BRING THAT INTO MY LIFE? We want to be shaped in the way we choose. - It can be painful to be shaped. - Like a potter pressing his fingers into the clay to mold it into a different shape would probably not “feel good” to the clay if it were sentient, so the ...read more
