God's Presence Series

Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Nov 1, 2017

Solomon built his temple. The worship at the temple by the people of God almost immediately needed to be reformed. Amos and other prophets called the people back to God. The reformation continued with Martin Luther and continues in the church today,

1 Kings 5:1-5; 8:1-13 “God’s Presence” INTRODUCTION “Reformed and Always Reforming” is a phrase that catches the spirit of our Reformation commemoration. We remember that five hundred years ago the Church had strayed away from the gospel of Jesus Christ. It had become deformed and, as a ...read more

Team God

Contributed by Je Layugan on Jan 6, 2021

Elijah (meaning “My God is Yahweh”) challenges the 450 prophets of baal (and other prophets) in a “my God, your gods face-off". Like Elijah, teaming up with God when facing battles in life will be a win-win situation.

STORY PRELUDE Elijah confronts King Ahab and challenges baal. He sets the basic rule of the face-off, that is to use woods and a bull to be consumed by their gods as they call them. Though he seems alone, Elijah is on the offense. In his turn to call his God, he prepares the Lord’s altar using ...read more

Reserved For God

Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 9, 2024

Elijah was at the forefront of the Mount Carmel victory and the revival.The nation, and even Elijah, thought he was the last prophet left alive. But his perspective changed after he had an encounter with God on the mountain. He discovered that God had reserved 7000 people for himself.

Elijah was at the forefront of the Mount Carmel victory and the ...read more

Belonging In The Will Of God Series

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022

One of the most sought-after things in the Christian life is the will of God. What is God’s will for my life? How do I know that I’m in the will of God? What if God’s will for me is something I really don’t like? These are common questions, and maybe you have asked them yourself.

WHAT GOD'S WILL IS NOT 1. God’s will is not something that you find For some reason we tend to have this idea that we must discover God’s will for our lives. That’s not how it works. God is the one who finds YOU. Abraham did not choose God; God chose Abraham. David did not choose to become ...read more

The Gifts We Bring Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 10, 2023

The gifts we give on Christmas are often given in gaily wrapped paper. The paper conceals what is hidden inside the present. Similarly, the gifts of the wisemen were like wrapping paper concealing special gifts of great value. Do you know what they were?

Humorist Dave Barry wrote about the gifts that were brought by the Wise Men. He suggested that if you examined that story carefully, you’d find that there is an overlooked theological fact in the story. There is no mention of wrapping paper. Why? First, these guys were wise. And second… they were ...read more
