    Who Picked Up The Tab? Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Jun 7, 2011
     | 5,627 views

    Let’s look at a few thoughts that will help us understand how faith can make us right with God – nothing else can! Trusting God that what Jesus did on the cross was enough to take away our sins – that is the faith we all need today!

    Who Picked Up the Tab? Romans 4:1-8 Intro: Back when we were young, dumb, and kid-free, we rode AmTrak all the way from Southeastern Nebraska to Baker City.

    Contributed by Greg Irby on Jun 15, 2013
     | 4,732 views

    In the Bible, we find wickedness compared to a fire. We understand the analogy. Isaiah used such a comparison. The same fires which destroyed Israel may well be smoldering in our nation today

    THE LIFTING OF SMOKE ISAIAH 9 Text: Isaiah 9:18 Isaiah 9:18 18 For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke.

    The Jesus That Always Was Series

    Only a Messiah who was truly God could save humanity.

    Harry Reasoner, one Christmas years ago, gave the following closing to 60 minutes [God would become a baby.] It is a startling idea, of course. My guess is that the whole story that a virgin was selected by God to bear His Son ... is not an idea that has been popular with theologians. It's a ...read more

    Decaf Christmas? Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015
     | 5,387 views

    The reason we decaffeinate Christmas is because we don’t want Jesus intruding on our lives. Don’t want to admit that we need help. Little baby Jesus is OK, but he’d better not get out of the manger.

    This week a number of articles have come out, commenting on the push to get Christ out of Christmas. The best I read called this the decaffeination of Christmas. Carols that are all about trees, snow, reindeer, not about a baby born in a manger. Why do we do this? For some the story of ...read more
