    Maintaining Healthy Boundaries (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 26, 2017
     | 12,336 views

    Maintaining healthly boundaries begins with self-respect & core identity in Christ. Out of that flows the ability to set boundaries on ourselves by the grace of God. Then we are positioned to establish healthy boundaries in our relationships.

    Romans 14:12 6-14-15 “God has a wonderful plan for your life, and so does everybody else.” That’s the problem we will address today. If you allow others to impose their plan on you, there is a very real danger you will not fulfill God’s plan for you.i Maintaining healthy boundaries in our ...read more

    Act Like Men

     | 12,362 views

    The people of God are engaged in a great battle. If we will engage the enemy and advance the cause of Christ, we need to heed the commands issued in this text.

    “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” The Christian Faith is a woman’s religion; and I’m glad this is so! Historically, women were excluded from religion. In the pagan religions extant at the time the Master presented Himself as a ...read more

    When Death Has Taken My Loved One

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 11, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 23,140 views

    Though unnatural, death comes to all. How shall we respond to death? We explore this neglected subject by looking at an incident in the ministry of Ezekiel.

    “The word of the LORD came to me: ‘Son of man, behold, I am about to take the delight of your eyes away from you at a stroke; yet you shall not mourn or weep, nor shall your tears run down. Sigh, but not aloud; make no mourning for the dead. Bind on your turban, and put your shoes on your feet; ...read more

    A Message For An Intellectual Age

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 9, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,244 views

    Paul's message before the Areopagus forms the basis for a study of how to approach an intellectual audience. This knowledge is necessary if we are to succeed in presenting the Faith in the midst of our world today. This is the substance of a radio message at Easter.

    “Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: ‘Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious. For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: “To the unknown god.” What therefore you worship as unknown, this ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,108 views

    Christians are secure in Christ. Because this is true, it behooves us to know Him--really know Who He is. The message explores Paul's revelation of Jesus as very God in his letter to the congregation in Colossae.

    [1] “[Christ] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, ...read more

    When You Look At God, Who Do You See?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 13, 2020
     | 8,124 views

    Our view of God depends upon our perspective. Sinners see God as vengeful; saints see God as a refuge. Thus, our relationship to God determines how we view Him.

    “The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and wrathful; the LORD takes vengeance on his adversaries and keeps wrath for his enemies. The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, and the LORD will by no means clear the guilty. His way is in whirlwind and storm, and the ...read more

    It's Just A One-Night Stand! Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 19, 2021
     | 5,150 views

    Though adultery is often justified in our world, there is no justification for this infidelity. God holds the adulterer to account, especially if that one bears the Name of Christ.

    “It happened, late one afternoon, when David arose from his couch and was walking on the roof of the king’s house, that he saw from the roof a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful. And David sent and inquired about the woman. And one said, ‘Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 29, 2021
     | 4,204 views

    A new year will shortly be upon us. While none of us is able to predict what we precise situations Christians will face in the coming year, we know from Scripture some general conditions that will confront us.

    “Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a ...read more

    If That's The Way Christians Act, I Want Nothing To Do With Their God!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 6, 2022
     | 2,102 views

    Lost people often use our failure to live as we ought to justify their rejection of Christ. While we cannot excuse them, we must know that we do offend. Therefore, we require grace to honour God and to avoid giving offence to the lost.

    “Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.” ...read more
