The Gate Of Salvation Series

Contributed by Jm Raja Lawrence on Nov 27, 2025

Jesus stands as the only entrance to eternal life. Today we discover why the gate is narrow, who the Door is, and how freely we may enter through Him alone.

We Praise The Name Of Yahweh (Psalm 135) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 27, 2025

A sermon I wrote, while wrestling with what Michael Heiser teaches in The Unseem Realm about the Name of Yahweh being Jesus.

Today, we continue our very sporadic and haphazard study of the psalms, by turning to Psalm 135.

The first, ...read more

Changing Your World Series

Contributed by Greg Surratt on Nov 4, 2009

The thought and desire to be a difference-maker is hardwired into us by our Creator. God wants us to make a difference wherever we are. That’s why, when we do, there is such a huge payoff.

Hey, have you ever just kind of stopped and thought or had the thought go through your mind...I wonder if my life really makes a difference? I wonder if what I do really matters.
