    Pigs On The Beach Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,236 views

    It seems that Jesus travels to the Gerasense for a specific purpose.

    It wasn't your typical day at the beach. Instead of beach umbrellas, lounge chairs and a sandcastle, we have a cemetery, a violent man, the supernatural, outraged citizens and pigs. And I'm pretty flexible, especially about beaches, but I draw the line at pigs on the beach. This is week four of ...read more

    When things get tough we sometimes wonder whether God is present with us. Bot God is always here and his promises never fail. He will judge those who do wrong in his world. He is constant in his judgements.

    Well let me begin by saying this is a difficult reading.It’s a difficult reading not only because we need to understand something of the complex history between Assyria and Judah and the covenant relationship between God and the people of Israel … but even more fundamentally it’s ...read more

    The Lord Of The Sabbath Series

    Contributed by Josh Foster on Mar 3, 2014
     | 7,542 views

    Keeping the Sabbath is all about walking with Him; it’s about submitting to His lordship. So, whatever else it means to “keep Sabbath”, this we can be sure of: Jesus is the reason, Jesus is the focus, Jesus is what it’s all about.

    Sabbath: The Lord of the Sabbath Scripture Text: Luke 6.1-10 INTRODUCTION As a young man, there were several older gentlemen that I had high regard for - the life-witness, their faith, their devotion to God. But-as-a-young-person, …I always found some things about them that ...read more

    There's something intriguing and exciting about a place where few have gone. So what about Jesus' words, "But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."

    “Going Where Few Have Gone” Matt. 7:13-14 My wife and I once had the privilege of hearing a speech by one of our American astronauts who had spent extended time living on the International Space Station.

    based on 1 rating
     | 16,009 views

    Whatever happened to purity? It’s a rare commodity today, but as believers, we should be reflecting the character of God. We need to be clean because God is clean. But how on earth are we going to remain pure in a world like this?

     | 12,207 views

    Psalm 19 is a song of praise to the glory of God’s law, even though David begins his song of praise in adoration toward God solely in terms of His glory in nature. Yet the most prominent feature of this psalm is praise to God for His law (His Word).
