Man Has Twisted, Contorted, Inverted, And Opposed All God’s Creation – Part 3 – Genesis Chapter 1 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023

We take a serious look at how man using evolution has inverted and twisted God’s creation. Man sets up his own idols and worships them. Man was created in the image of God not the image of an ape or Neanderthal. We follow more of the inversion of Genesis and look at gender distortions.

Drawn By Beauty

Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 27, 2023

Where does beauty come from and why are we attracted to it? Why do we as human beings desire to make beautiful creations? The existence of objective beauty points to a God of beauty who loves His creation and desires to give us joy and pleasure.

Today I will be speaking about how objective beauty points us to the Creator God. We’ll be looking at Psalm 27:4 and Psalm 96:6. One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD and to ...read more

Apologetics

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Dec 22, 2025

Finally got a word Wednesday, for today’s message. I truly don’t stress about a lot of things. I get aggravated, but stress is not part of my daily diet.
