    In dealing with both Christians and non-Christians I have heard people say, “I am afraid that I have committed the unpardonable sin, and therefore there is no hope for me. I can’t be forgiven.” What is the unpardonable sin? Who can commit it?

    I Can’t Be Forgiven Matthew 12:32-37 In dealing with both Christians and non-Christians I have heard people say, “I am afraid that I have committed the unpardonable sin, and therefore there is no hope for me. I can’t be forgiven.” What is the ...read more

    Knock-Off Parenting

    Contributed by Brian Tome on May 1, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,199 views

    The goal of parenting is maturity. For the knock-off version, the goal is happiness. God’s goal is spiritual maturity.

    As a consumer, I say, “how can I make my life most bearable” NOT “how can I build into my kids.” The reason why I was a stickler for getting kids to bed wasn’t necessarily building into them but making my life bearable. The goal of parenting is maturity. For the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,858 views

    Jesus confronts every smug and complacent sinner. But Jesus is also speaking to us. For Jesus forces us to ask, “How are we treating God’s vineyard today?”

    Intro There was a beautiful vineyard, its vines bending, laden with the weight of rich, swollen grape clusters. For the owner had planted a good vineyard. He had chosen a vigorous, hardy stock of vine. He had well prepared the soil to guarantee a good harvest. Yes, the vineyard had rich, ...read more

    Lesson 8: Watch Out For Pride Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 1, 2010
     | 3,587 views

    Pride is a sneaky thing. It's the default program for humans and is at the root of the problem in Corinth, and often at the root of our problems as Christians.

    The American Heritage Dictionary defines sarcasm as: "A form of irony in which apparent praise conceals another, scornful meaning." An example might be to someone who is always late and you say to them: "Oh my, you're right on time!" Now if I told you that the Bible has several excellent examples ...read more

    This message looks at the implications of Peter’s confession in Matthew 16.

    There are times when asking certain questions seem to heighten the drama of the moment. “Do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?” “Do you swear to tell the truth…?” “Where were you on the night of…?” Questions such as these have the ability to cut through all the surface stuff and ...read more

    Sometimes, God has to act in very unusual ways to get our attention.

    Bridezilla Hosea 1:2-10 I am old enough to remember the old Godzilla movies about a reptilian who liked to destroy cities and such. This fit in the genre of terror movies such as King Kong and Destroy all Monsters. Words were coined with the “zilla” ending to describe someone whose actions were ...read more

     | 7,184 views

    To show that GOD is magnified when His people prospers that's why He has broken the generational curses and replaced it with generational blessings.

    I. EXORDIUM: Will you die of generational sickness? No. GOD will pass thru me, generational blessings from Abraham.

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,620 views

    It seems we live in constant flux -- the world is changing and usually away from God. This lesson takes a look at how Daniel and his friends dealt with their world as it changed from Israel to Babylon.

    1. War of the Worlds was written by HG Wells in 1897. It is one of the earliest stories of conflict between mankind and an extraterrestrial race. It was performed as a Halloween episode on radio by Orson Welles on OCT 30, 1938. It allegedly caused mass panic. It was presented as a series of News ...read more

     | 4,335 views

    How do we deal with shaming?

    No Shame Matthew 1:18-25 It amuses me when modern commentators on the Bible refer to the culture of Jesus’ day as being an honor-shame culture as though this isn’t the case today. But we have all kinds of shaming today. For example, there is fat shaming. In fact, shaming and the bullying that goes ...read more
