Nose that’s as long as a telephone wire!” Probably all of us either said that or had it said to us when we were kids. It’s a good thing that it’s not really true. Otherwise, many of us would ...read more

    False teachers threaten the health of the Community of Faith, just as errant doctrine threatens the spiritual welfare of the people of God. The message considers how the elder is to respond to such threats.

    “But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.” [1] The people of God live under constant threat even to their lives. Jesus warned His people, “Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of ...read more

    based on 29 ratings
     | 11,108 views

    This is a sermon which compares the game of golf to the game of life.

    The latter portion of my text reads, "....and without a parable spake He not unto them." Today I will use a parable or a comparison to illustrate the game of life. It is obvious that the Apostle Paul was knowledgeable of the sporting events of his day. On numerous occasions he used athletics to ...read more

    What Does Jesus Write About Me?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 7, 2025
     | 27 views

    Jesus removes condemnation, restores dignity, and invites us into freedom. His grace breaks shame’s power and opens a future no accusation can steal.

    There are moments in life when the soul collapses under the weight of its own thoughts. We look in the mirror and see not a face but a failure, not a person but a problem. A knot forms inside us that no amount of effort can untie. Every word of encouragement slides off. Every accomplishment seems ...read more
