    Can Anything Good Come Out Of Nazareth Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 7, 2014
    based on 34 ratings
     | 35,280 views

    Nazareth would seem to be an insignificant backwater town. That's how most scholars have painted it. The city didn't even seem to make much difference in the life of Christ. But is there more to its story?

    OPEN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGlEte0qPFM What you just saw was the opening celebration for last year’s “Christmas in Nazareth”. It’s a 5 day festival that begins with the lighting of a Christmas tree and fireworks. In the following days there are parades, ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 31, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,258 views

    How do we respond to the good and evil that is done to us? There are many ways we can respond, but God’s word teaches us the right way, and it is the way Jesus exemplified for us.

    We read in Numbers 22:12, And God said unto Balaam, Thou shalt not go with them; thou shalt not curse the people: for they are blessed. (KJV) God told Balaam that he was not to accompany the men of Moab who had approached him, and he was not to curse the people of Israel because they were a people ...read more

    The Word of God makes it very clear that as we move through times of sorrow and grief, God is with us. God is there to comfort us and sustain us.

    The Celebration of the life of our dear loved one.

    You weren't a warlock or a pimp when you were saved, just a goody-two-shoes? Awesome!

    Pastor Mike Mizell mentioned as part of his message tonight that sometimes we give too much attention to those who were saved out of some wretched background versus someone saved from a good background. Indeed, you can do the national speaking circuit if you were the high priestess of a coven, a ...read more

    More About Obedience And A Good Day's Work Series

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Oct 8, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,974 views

    We are also called to honor and obey our heavenly Father-this is the highest obedience. If obedience to parents or an employer, or a government, is contradictory to obedience to God, we have to make a choice. We must choose to obey God rather than people.

    Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 “Honor your father and mother”—which is the first commandment with a promise— 3 “so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.”[a] 4 Fathers (Parents), do ...read more

    The Good Shepherd Does Not Fleece His Flock Series

     | 5,389 views

    As Good Shepherd, Jesus seeks our good. He does not act like the predators (Thieves and Robbers) who want to profit off of their followers. He leads us where we need to go.

    1. The Camden, Maine, Herald ran 2 photos on the same page: one was a picture of Camden’s city council and city manager; the other was of a flock of sheep. Enter Murphy’s Law. As fate and humor would have it, the captions were accidentally reversed. So, under the picture of the sheep, ...read more

    Genesis Chapter 14. An Expository review of the traits of Abram (Abraham), and how our modern men fall far short.

    Where Have all The Good Men Gone? Genesis 14 Ya know, Men have gotten a pretty Bad rap here in the United States.

    Why Bad Things Happen To Good People Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Cox on Jan 13, 2004
    based on 18 ratings
     | 9,119 views

    So why do bad things happen to good people? They don’t; it’s as simple as that. Good things (eternal life) happen only to good people (born-again believers); and bad things (eternal punishment) only happen to bad people (sinners).

    Do we have the right to complain? I. One of the main everyday sins we all commit is addressed in Philippians 2:14 “Do all things without grumbling and complaining.” A. This is based on the assumption that we deserve more than we are getting; that this bad thing shouldn’t be happening to us ...read more
