The Light Of The World Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 19, 2021

As the Light of the World Jesus takes us out of darkness and worldliness. Darkness and worldliness does not come because we are the worst we can be; it comes because we are following the distraction of Satan who masquerades as an angel of light.

Message John 8:12 I Am The Light of the World When Jesus describes Himself as The Light we can quickly understand the significance of the metaphor. Light gives direction. Light pierces the darkness. Light takes away fear, uncertainty, and hesitancy. Light reveals truth. We get the metaphor. Those ...read more

"My Good Shepherd”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 17, 2024

In John 10 Jesus reaffirms that He is fulfilling Ezekiel 34. Psalm 23 is a Psalm that touches a deep place within our souls. Why would Jesus compare Himself to a “shepherd” if in His own culture the role of the “shepherd” was a profession that was rejected?

In Jesus Holy Name April 21, 2024 Text: Psalm 23:1-3, John 10:11 Redeemer “My Good Shepherd” Psalm 23, may be the most familiar and favorite of all the psalms. The affirmation of God as our good shepherd implies a truth that touches a deep place within our souls. “Even ...read more

The Faith That Shapes Us Series

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 14, 2025

Faith matures as we surrender to God’s shaping hands—trusting, obeying, and allowing His grace to form Christ’s likeness within us.

Introduction — From Saved to Shaped When we first meet Jesus, faith saves us. But when we keep walking with Him, faith begins to shape us. The same grace that opens the door of salvation now wants to renovate the house. God never intended faith to be a momentary flash of belief — He designed it ...read more

God calls His people to take courageous stands for truth, integrity, and faith. Today, we’ll focus on two individuals—Queen Vashti and Mordecai—and examine three moments when they took bold stands that changed history. Even when it’s costly.

• Have you ever faced a moment when doing the right thing came with a cost? • What do you do when that time comes? • Obviously you do what is right and take a stand! • Maybe. • We live in a world that often demands conformity, a world where it can feel safer to blend in, to stay silent, and to ...read more

Wonders Of The World

Contributed by Gary Bennett on Apr 9, 2001

Lessons from Babel. It is only in the act of praise and worship with our whole lives that we function as designed - not by building cities and names for ourselves - but by building up His people and honouring His name.

INTRODUCTION The Bible tells us that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made" - with more fear than wonder I would suggest! In our relatively short history, we have developed science, engineering, medicine, economics, psychology and many other physical and social sciences to the extent that it is ...read more

Alpha Male

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 27, 2000

The Jesus of the Incarnation provides us with a more authentic leadership than "alpha males" in the wild or in politics, for in His differences He is Alpha and Omega.

What does that mean? In the ...read more
