Get In The Game Series

Contributed by Steven Buhr on Jan 19, 2011

People have different feelings about sports; they either love, hate, don't care, or don't know anything about them. The same feelings can apply when it comes to sharing our faith; we either love to, hate to, don't care to, or don't know how to. We need to get in the game

You Shall Not Murder Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 21, 2021

The Bible’s opening plotlines show the firstborn man, Cain, killing his brother Abel. Think of it: the firstborn person in the human race was a murderer.

In 2000, there were 128 reported homicides in Scotland. In 1960, the District of Columbia reported 81 murders. In 1991 ...read more

Nothing You Can Do To Make God Love You More Or Less

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Sep 25, 2024

Recently I have been hearing quite a few pastors using a quote from Henri Nouwen a Dutch Catholic priest that states, “There is nothing we can do to make God love us more and nothing we can do to make God love us less.” Is that true? Let's see what God's Word has to say about it.

Do you have a Bible? I was once told that in a simple Bible with no maps, no apocrypha and no commentary you would find the Psalms in the center of the Bible. So, I thought maybe it would be Psalm 119 since it has 174 verses and is the longest chapter in the Bible. However, in my Bible it turns out ...read more

Touching On Jesus

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 23, 2011

Do you need Jesus to pay a house call to someone you love? Or do you yourself find a need to reach out to Jesus and quietly almost secretly put out your hand in the hope that you can just catch the hem of His garments to be healed?

Touching on Jesus Matthew 9:9 - 9:26 Today’s scripture passage shows us the need we all share – to be touched by God in our time of crisis and also to reach out to Jesus in faith trusting that by touching Him we can be made whole. Jesus sets up this entire chain of events by letting ...read more

The Fall Of Man

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 9, 2014

At the beginning of the Bible, we find the first sin and the fall of man. Satan was behind it. Because he hated God, he wanted to destroy His creation. Satan made his attack on our first parents, while they were in the Garden of Eden.

The Christmas War Series

Contributed by Scott Nichols on Nov 8, 2019

There is one face you will never see in a Nativity set. This face was not smiling, not praising, not kneeling, not wondering...it was hating! Around that manger scene, lurking in the shadows was the face of the Dragon, the deceiver, the devil!

Revival Follows Persecution

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Oct 23, 2014

For centuries, Christians have been hated and viciously opposed in many nations. But persecution has not destroyed Christianity. Even under the direst circumstances, it has not only survived but thrived and revived the church.

Opening illustration: Did you know that if one of the arms of a starfish is severed, a new one will grow in its place?

The Humble Will Receive Grace, I Promise! Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jul 13, 2020

God hates pride, but loves humility. God's promise is that if we humble ourselves before God, He will give us His grace. This truth is clearly displayed in the story of Nebuchadnezzar, and in the story of the Pharisee and the tax collector.

A. One day a certain preacher began to pride-fully muse about what a fine preacher he had become. 1. So he said to his wife, “How many really great preachers do you think there are?” 2. His wife thought for a minute and said, “Well, I don’t know how many really great preachers there are, but ...read more
