    For Mother’s Day this looks at Mary the mother of John Mark.

    Who Was John Mark’s Mother? Acts 12:12 It is just a fleeting reference, it doesn’t provide a lot of details and we aren’t really told very much about her, but never being afraid to venture into the land of speculation in the cause of a good message we shall venture forth looking at the first ...read more

    How To Be A Living Sacrifice Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 51,992 views

    The principle of self-sacrifice is foundational to the doctrine of the Christian life. In our lesson today I want to examine how to be a living sacrifice.

    Scripture For the past few weeks we have been studying Romans 12:1-2. In Romans 12 the Apostle Paul begins applying the doctrine that he has been teaching for the previous 11 chapters. Now, it is not that he has made no application in the previous 11 chapters; he has. However, as he begins chapter ...read more

    The second sermon of a post-Easter series on Love

    Children have a great deal to say about love, don’t they? We adults have had the experience of “falling in love” and for most, if not all of us, it was a wonderful and overwhelmingly emotional experience. But, not to 7 year old Glenn. He says, "If falling in love is anything like learning how to ...read more

    God And Hurting Persons

     | 6,686 views

    God has always expressed care for those who hurt; it’s nothing new. But Jesus extended that care to those not like His listeners, and His church is intended to reach the marginal.

    This week, while the rest of you were surfing the Internet reading Ken Starr’s report, I was reading my favorite form of literature. I was reading "church bulletin bloopers." Church bulletin bloopers are those funny little errors that creep into church bulletins, maybe because the typist didn’t ...read more

    The Weakness Of God

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on May 27, 2009
    based on 19 ratings
     | 8,528 views

    The current church seems so obsessed with the power of God. What kind of power is it? Is it after all a power that comes from weakness?

    It has been my habit for many years to read through the Bible each year. As I continue this practice I am increasingly amazed at how absurd God’s plan for the world and his kingdom is — that is, in human terms. God seems to delight in abuse and rejection, for he receives plenty of it. He seems, ...read more

    You may never get the kind of recognition or applause that you might like or that you see others getting for doing the same kind of work. But Jesus tells us in the Sermon on the Mount that the Father sees what is done in secret.

    The Discipline Of Prayer Series

    Contributed by David Scudder on May 30, 2009
     | 4,521 views

    Since prayer is really just talking to God, then why is it so hard? Some of us have no problem spending a lot of time talking to other people? So why does it take so much effort to talk to God?

    Purpose: To show that a false commitment to Christ will cause a lack of desire to pray. Aim: I want the listener to be sure that he is totally committed to Christ. INTRODUCTION: For many years medical science thought that ulcers were caused by stress and spicy foods. But, in 1979 two Australian ...read more

    Faith Leads To Maturity Series

    based on 31 ratings
     | 23,612 views

    Relying on external law is the bondage of slavery. Jesus redeemed us from the law & made us heirs of God. The Christian does not need to wait to enjoy the riches of Christ. If he is a son then he is an heir.

    GALATIANS 4:1-7 FAITH LEADS TO MATURITY [Romans 8:15-17] One of the tragedies of legalism is that it gives the appearance of maturity when, in reality, it leads the believer away from a spiritual dependance upon God. The Galatian Christians, like most believers, wanted to grow and go ...read more
