"who Knows?"

Contributed by David Nolte on Jul 25, 2021

When it comes to the future, who knows?

Some people think it would be wonderful to see what will happen tomorrow and beyond. “Just show me what the stock market will do, and I’ll be rich.” “Show me what is coming for me so I can be prepared.” Think again. If we were to see all the blessings and benefits waiting for us in God’s ...read more

Bear Fruit (Part 4 Of 4) Series

Contributed by Tim Melton on Mar 1, 2021

As one abides in Christ, only then can he or she bear fruit that will last. Like the vine in John 15, it is only as we stay connected to Christ that Christ will bring about fruit in us and through us for His glory.

As we look at John 15, we must remember the context. Jesus was talking with His disciples. It was the end of the Last Supper, right before they walked to the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus would be arrested. Jesus had just told them that one of them would betray Him. He had talked of how He was ...read more

The Fruitful Believer Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Jan 14, 2022

Jesus provides us an image of what the fruitful believer looks like. Jesus likens Himself to a vine, and the Father is the one for cares for the vine. The believers in Christ Jesus - the ones who are alive and receiving life from the vine - are the branches of vine with the purpose of bearing fruit.

Introduction As I wrote this message, it is clear that things are not right in the world. There are ongoing struggles as a result of COVID-19 and the response by politicians and globalists.

The Barren Fig Tree Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 2, 2018

Jesus approached a fig tree expecting to find fruit, but it only had leaves. While it looked promising from a distance, looks were deceiving. Are we bearing fruit or just showing pretty leaves and blooms?

The Barren Fig Tree Mark 11: 12-14; 20-21 Our text today follows Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. He had begun what most consider the Passion Week, the final days leading up to His crucifixion on Calvary’s hill. Most agree these events would have taken place on Monday morning of that ...read more
