Contributed by Randy Stephenson on Mar 4, 2012

Why did God find favor with Abraham? What did Peter say to cause such a strong rebuke from Jesus?

The Law Of Moses Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 18, 2020

Was the Mosaic law good or bad? Why did God give it to Israel, and what part did it play for His people?

OPEN: Why do laws exist? Why do we have them?

Why Have You Forsaken Me? - Mark 15:34 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 30, 2024

What did Jesus mean when he said, "My God, why have you forsaken me?" Did the Father forsake his Son?

In Mark 15:34 Jesus cries out from the cross, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Did God actually forsake Jesus? If so, what’s the answer to Jesus’ question? Why? And if you think the answer is obvious, then why does Jesus ask the question? He knew he had to drink this cup, he agonized ...read more

Is God Your God? Series

Contributed by Robert Higgins on Nov 13, 2007

Is God merely the means to an end for you? Is God the tool for your happiness? At this point in Jacob’s life, He is. He may be in your life as well. Until you are broken, brought low, brought to the end of yourself.

Encountering God – Part 13 - Is God your God?: Last week we witnessed Jacobs’ first encounter with God which occurred in a dream. It was the first time he ever had any direct dealing with God.

Contributed by David Nolte on Apr 21, 2021

Joseph's brothers hated him and gave him plenty of reason to hate them back. Instead he did a surprising thing.

They hated him. They despised him. They loathed the ground on which he walked. They had “good reasons,” to hear them tell it. • He was their father’s favorite. • He didn’t have to work hard as they did. • He dreamed that in the future his father, mother and 11 brothers would all bow before ...read more
