"God Of Your Fill In The Blanks____ (Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh)”

Contributed by Bubot Parago on Aug 13, 2018

God did not answer Moses’ question of “who am I?” Instead He answered Him with His “I Am that I Am” What does God mean by that? God wanted to tell Moses, just present yourself. He would start to fill those blanks! How ‘bout you?

Who Are You Imitating?

Contributed by Pastor Amos Dele Dada on Jun 11, 2020

God Has To Win Control Over All The Areas Of My Life Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Sep 25, 2020

I know that we do not give God that 100% control. So, I set out to find a Scriptural example of a man or a woman who did not give that control over to God to see what we can learn from that example.

Introduction Last week, we began a new series about the four big areas of our life that God must win. The first one we talked about was God must win our choices. At the end of the day, there ought to be more checks in God’s column on things that I chose to do God’s way rather than yielding to the ...read more

You Foolish Baptists

Contributed by Guy Mcgraw on Nov 7, 2011

Sometimes we need to be shaken up, woken up from our mistaken take on what the Christian life is really all about.

There are some people in our society who believe in something called ‘channeling’ the spirits of departed people. I would be afraid to do that with the spirit of the Apostle Paul, especially on a passage like this one. One of the lost skills in modern America(cooking of food, ...read more
