    Becoming A Holy Family Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 29, 2022
     | 1,533 views

    Joseph, Mary and Jesus give us a model of the family all of ours should strive to become.

    Feast of the Holy Family 2022 If there is anything we can be certain of when we consider the past fifty or sixty years, it is that there has been a massive cultural, media and even governmental assault on the natural family. I say “natural” family because one of the prongs of this assault has been ...read more

    The Bereans received the Word with eagerness and examined the Scriptures. They believe in the sufficiency and authority of Scripture. We see the efficacy of Scripture.

    Let us pray before we read the Word of God. Heavenly Father, as we draw near to Christmas, our hearts are filled with gladness again, remembering your love and sacrifice for us. We are a different person today because of Christ. Thank you for sending your Son as the atoning sacrifice for our ...read more

    Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.

    And around the throne, twenty four thrones, and on the thrones twenty four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and on their heads, golden crowns (of victory) And out of the throne came lightnings and voices and thunders, and seven fiery lamps burning before the throne, which are the seven ...read more

    I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel (Luke 7:9).

    AMAZING FAITH OF A CENTURION. Luke 7:1-10. It is interesting to note that, in this busy little cameo, two of the main characters remain offstage throughout. In Luke’s record, the incident takes place immediately after the Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:17-49). Jesus had said all He was going to say ...read more

     | 3,324 views

    Part 1 The Garden to the Cross: Genealogy of Christ This is not about the genealogy of Christ found in Matthew or Luke. This is about the genealogy given in the Genesis “begats.”

    The Bible gives us the genealogy of Christ. It takes us from the garden to the cross. The first section of the genealogy is in the book of Genesis, chapter 5. Yes, this is the chapter we want to skip.?Don't skip it!?It has a TON of important information. Genesis 5? Vs. 5 Adam lived 930 ...read more

     | 4,443 views

    We must receive the words of Jesus Christ... 1. Because they are God's way to measure our lives (vs. 47-48). 2. Because they are God's message to us (vs. 49). 3. Because they are God's method of salvation (vs. 49-50).

    Crying In The Wilderness

     | 1,472 views

    If we don’t live the Gospel, how will people believe that Christ also lives? People must see that we are real, before they will believe that Jesus is.

    I expect most of you know by now that we have a homegrown preacher next week. Our newest deacon, Drew Johnson, is going to be my sub on December 26 while I’m off basking in sunny Minneapolis. He’s been up here before, of course: many of you remember when he was a shepherd in our Christmas pageant a ...read more

    Understanding (and being able to defend) creation is critical for all believers. Why? Because, Creation causes us to marvel at who God is by seeing His complete authority over everything.

    Last week, in the first part of First Corinthians chapter one, we saw that Paul was thankful for how God's grace was making a difference in the lives of the Christians at Corinth. Yet, it was a church full of problems.

    Instructions For Ministry (Matthew 10:5-42)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 10, 2025
     | 267 views

    In these verses, Matthew describes the responsibilities given to the apostles by the Lord Jesus. He anointed them with special powers and abilities to show people the power of God but also warned Mark 13;9-13of coming persecution for the cause of the Gospel.

    The Lord Jesus gave the apostles specific responsibilities and gifts to minister to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. His role as the Promised Messiah would be to not deliver the nation from the bondage of Rome, but to free them and all people from a far worse bondage, that of sin and it ...read more

    God loved us so much that He acted against His own best self-interest, by becoming human. In doing this, He exactly contradicted the secular world's view of leadership and government.

    Epiphany 2012 Against His Own Self-Interest Spirit of the Liturgy One of the insights that Pope Benedict has shared with us over the past few years continually comes to mind when I read the Gospels.
