Hope

Hope Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 27, 2021

Christmas is a time to reflect upon the height and depth and breath of God’s love and the lengths that He will go to to show us His love. Christmas is a time to remember that God doesn’t demand that we love Him but gives us the choice to love Him.

In the beginning was … nothing? A “formless void” (Genesis 1:1)? Yet the Bible says a wind (the breath of God) swept over the surface of the "water" (Genesis 1:2) so there something there ... maybe everything there … the particles ... all the molecules, all of the “substance” of the ...read more

This Hope Series

Contributed by Larry Grant on Jan 21, 2024

We can’t waste our time worrying about what people say about us who don’t know us, because scripture teaches it is because they don’t know Him! When we know that the Hope of Glory is Christ is us we behave differently.

1 John 3:1-3 (NKJV) “This Hope” January 21, 2024 John begins passage with a question that we all must consider. What manner of love is this?

Hope Against Hope Series

Contributed by Christine Lavender on Sep 13, 2022

The Bible without guidance and revelation from the Holy Spirit can seem contradicting at times. Scriptures might seem to clash but ...read more
