    This is part 1 of my 5 week series on what the church needs to look like in the emerging culture. This looks specifically at what the early church looked like, and what those practices can look like in our world.

This is an exciting series for me, because I hope at the end of the 5 weeks, you will have a better idea about how I think about church. Some of my hopes and dreams for us as a ...read more

    God wants his own to live well in a wicked world.

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Oct 4, 2014
     | 8,368 views

    This study examines the Scriptural identity of the Gift of the Holy Spirit and, also, how to receive the Gift and why we receive this precious Gift.

    When one obeys the Gospel of Jesus Christ, they receive the Holy Spirit. Paul asked the Galatian brethren (3:2): "This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit from the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?" The Spirit was not received through their observing ...read more

     | 2,092 views

    We know as Christians that we have a friend, his name is Jesus. And we know as Christians that we have an enemy, and his name is Satan.

    Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 13, 2022
     | 1,933 views

    The dispute over the body of Moses is so difficult a verse when Michael and Satan argued over Moses' body. The details are not known. Jude continues his exposure of false teachers and hones in this time on the dreamers who defile the flesh, brazen and wicked.

    Night flying has its own unique challenges.
