    I Am Before Abraham Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 29, 2012
     | 9,944 views

    He said something only God could say. These are the words of the greatest blasphemer of all time, or the words of God Incarnate.

    “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was born, I AM,” Jesus is talking mainly to people who think they’re insiders, yet are outside of God’s grace. But first--verse 30 (which we looked at last time) records how, in spite of critical opposition to Jesus, many came to ...read more

    Sword, Suffering, And Shame

    It is not easy following Jesus. We can lose friendships, our family, and endure hardships and heartache. Jesus tells us in Matthew 10 that these things will happen, and that we look to Him when they do.

    In High School, one of my favorite teachers was Mr. Smith. I enjoyed his humor, his teaching styles, and his supportiveness. I also really enjoyed him as a soccer coach. I know I was one of his favorite students too, as he once said that in a class. He was instrumental in getting me a $2,000 ...read more

    Our Marathon ends only at our death. Till then we need to run without hesitance and fear. We will face all kinds of encumbrances in life but throw off the run with the same pace and win the race.

    Theme: Run, Text: Hebrews 12:1-3 Dearly beloved in Christ. Today, we will have mediation from Hebrews 12:1-3 under the theme, RUN. I would like to leave three thoughts, such as, Run the Race, Run to Jesus, and Run without weary. An old priest died and arrived at the Gates of Heaven. Next to him ...read more

    Did God Do Wrong To Kill All The Canaanites?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 17, 2024
     | 785 views

    Numerous times during my career, unbelievers have used God's judging the Canaanites as an excuse not to believe in God. They insinuate that God did evil in executing the people, particularly the children. Let's correct the view; God did the just thing!

    Encouragement To Engage In Ministry

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 13, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,538 views

    It would be a tragedy for believers to possess biblical knowledge and spiritual giftedness, and yet never use that knowledge and giftedness for the advancement of the Kingdom. Many churches are stagnant and dead spiritually because they focus upon the wrong things.

    Encouragement to Engage in Ministry Ephesians 3: 14-19 Some of you are probably like me when it comes to technology. I am certainly not an expert in the field of computers and programming. I am unfamiliar with all that goes into writing code, software, and the development of apps on my phone. ...read more

    Gog And Magog: God's War On Israel's Enemies (Ezekiel 38-39)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 13, 2024
     | 2,546 views

    Ezekiel 38-39 contains one of the greatest prophecies in the Bible, describing a massive invasion of Israel in the "latter years" by a great confederation of nations. The aftermath will show that God Almighty is the protector of HIs people.

    In reading the account of the coming Gog-Magog War in Ezekiel 38-39, we need to ask some relevant questions on how everything comes to pass. First, who are the invaders of Israel mentioned in the prophecy? We read about ten proper names in Chapter 38:1-6 that help us identify the invading ...read more

    The Focus And Ministry Of God’s Messiah Series

     | 328 views

    God gives us a very clear, very distinct picture of the Messiah's purpose, relationship to Him, and what He will be responsible for doing. The challenge for us today is: will we receive this completed work to restore our relationship with a God who has never stopped loving us?

    Isaiah, Part 17 The Focus and Ministry of God’s Messiah Isaiah 42:1-9 Dismiss kids for Children’s Church and Nursery Introduction - Welcome to Seasons! We are so glad you have chosen to worship with us! - Last week, we saw a unique proclamation challenging us about who God is -- ...read more

    Every generation searches for peace, not the kind the world gives through distraction or denial, but peace with God, purchased and guaranteed by Jesus Christ.

    Go! And Live in the Peace of Justification - Romans 5:1 Romans 5:1 (NLT) — “Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.” Introduction: The Search for Real Peace Every generation searches for ...read more

    Go! And Live In The Peace Of Christ (Advent Peace) Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Dec 1, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,557 views

    Advent is the season where the Church intentionally remembers that Christ came into a violent, divided, restless world as the Prince of Peace. Every generation searches for peace — world peace, inner peace, peace of mind — yet peace remains elusive.

    Go! And Live in the Peace of Christ (Advent Peace) Romans 5:1 (NLT): “Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.” Psalm 119:165 (NLT): “Those who love your instructions have great peace and do not ...read more

     | 616 views

    We're in week two of Advent, and today we're talking about PEACE! Not that fake peace the world tries to sell you. Not that temporary peace that falls apart when trouble comes. But that SUPERNATURAL, HEAVEN-SENT, CANT-NOBODY-TAKE-IT-AWAY PEACE that only Jesus can give!

    THE SHEPHERDS' STORY (Luke 2:8-14) Now let me take you back to that night—that HOLY NIGHT—when everything changed. There were shepherds out in the fields, doing what they always did—watching over their sheep through the long, dark night. These weren't fancy people. These weren't ...read more
