    Somanytime church folk are so quick to be judge, jury, and executioner because someone isn't doing what they think they should be doing and want to stone them, but if it had not been for Grace they would still be messed up themselves facing stoning.

     | 53 views

    Elijah’s call on Mount Carmel still confronts us: in a world of divided hearts, choose Christ decisively before silence becomes surrender.

    1. The War No One Sees There was no trumpet, no sword, no marching army that morning on Mount Carmel. The battle Israel faced wasn’t visible—it was spiritual. It was a war for allegiance. They still attended worship. They still claimed to be God’s people. But their hearts were split between two ...read more

    Using the story of the wise men to teach us how God seeks us and brings us to seek the Christ.

    The story of the wise men visiting the Christ child is an intriguing one. These men began a long trip to Israel simply because a particular star was in the sky, alerting them to the birth of the king of the Jews. They traveled for several months finally meet the Christ child in person. I believe ...read more

    What Crime Did Jesus Commit? Series

     | 11,013 views

    We see the context that sets up the reason Jesus was rejected by the Jews. He called for integrity, challenged their authority, claimed to be deity. We then move from the reasons to the purpose - our justification.

    Almost 2000 years ago, Jesus asked His followers a question: “Who do you say I am?” It’s still the fundamental question of life. And the answer creates controversy. It’s one reason why Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ, is so controversial. This is a film that has had the audacity ...read more

    There are millions of people who, when they die, will be unable to cross over into eternal life, because they are on the wrong side of the river of eternity. However, there is hope; as God has made a bridge through His Son, Jesus Christ.

    When I pastored in western Kentucky, the Eggner Ferry Bridge on Highway 68, which spanned Kentucky Lake, was hit by a barge and collapsed. This was a major route from Cadiz over “The Land between the Lakes” into Murray. People regularly traveled to Murray for doctor visits; and people worked in ...read more
