    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Dec 14, 2022
     | 963 views

    The Bible tells us a lot about what the angels do, but not much about what they look like. Let’s imagine their appearance and explore their performance.

    We need tradition to guide us, but often our traditions lie in the past fifty to seventy years. Our tradition should reach back further; like 2000 years ago! The anchor for our traditions should be in Jesus, not the inventions of men.

    This evening we’re going to discuss the topic of “tradition.” If you have ever seen the musical “Fiddler on the Roof,” then you probably recall a rather large Jewish man singing about tradition throughout the entire performance. You may recall that tradition was a dreaded word to the young ...read more

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 22, 2020
     | 2,930 views

    There are many different responses to the Gospel. The point of Jesus’ parable in Matthew 13 was not to plant doubt in the hearts of the disciples. Rather, Jesus was showing His disciples how many ways the human heart can respond to the good news.
