    If we don't handle bitterness & hostility differently than the way most people in the world handles them, then we have not learned what it means to be a Christian. What did Jesus say?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Matthew 18:15-35; Psalm 27:1 A. I believe that most of us, at one time or another, have had someone that we have fallen out with. There have been times when we have been so ...read more

    With the greatest message in the world to give, why are Christians treated with hostility?

    One of the things that confuses many Christians is the attitude of non-Christians toward them. Most of us think that since we go to the world with the greatest and most important message in all of history that the world would applaud and cheer. For the most part, people are not waiting for that ...read more

    Peace Work Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,005 views

    God’s peace is not the same as the world’s peace - even though people filled with God’s peace DO bring peace to the world.

    We human beings are not naturally peacemakers. On the contrary: we’re naturally trouble-makers. A few years ago a group of people tried walking across America on a mission of peace. They couldn't get along and divided into two groups by the time they were half way across. According to the ...read more

We're going to be diving into 1 Kings chapter 18, verse 3. This Scripture focuses on a man named Obadiah, who served God faithfully in one of the most ...read more

    How should Believers live in a world hostile to God? We find some answers in the closing verses of James.

    How Christians live in a marriage with a non-Christian spouse.

    We have been going through Jesus’ disciple Peter’s first letter.

Peter’s particular focus was on how we live under the ...read more

    We are to be different from the world. All quotes from Scripture is from the NASB.

    How we, as followers of Christ, view the world truly does matter.
