Outcasts! Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 16, 2012

In Mark 2 we meet two outcasts: a paralyzed man and Levi. Each had a decision to make that mirrors decisions that we as humans must make as well with the presence of Jesus.

Whereas in Chapter 1 we saw Jesus, the ultimate action hero, begin his battle against the enemy, Satan, in Chapter 2 He takes the war to a new front and begins battling the religious establishment in Israel, which was just as much an impediment to entering God’s kingdom as Satan. He does this by: ...read more

Trusting God In Everything We Do Part 2 Series

Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 14, 2011

It’s easy to say we trust God, but do we really? Or do we put our trust where everyone else does; the stock market, real estate, banking institutions, or whatever the newest quick fix solution may be.

Three men were hiking and they came upon a large raging river. They needed to get to the other side, but they didn’t know how. The first man said, "God, give me the strength to cross this river." Poof! God gave him big arms and strong legs, and he swam across the raging river. It took him ...read more

Believe, And See The Glory Of God

Contributed by Don Schultz on Mar 9, 2011

Jesus makes big promises, and we struggle to believe in the midst of our troubles and setbacks of life. Jesus gives us the strength to believe, and fills us with the hope of seeing God's glory someday.

How quick are you to believe big promises? I think there’s a certain part of all of us that’s a little hesitant, a little skeptical, to believe every promise that we hear. Have you ever believed a promise, only to have that promise broken? “I promise you that we will give you ...read more

Way Back Into Love

Contributed by Je Layugan on Feb 15, 2021

Relationship can be very complicated. Family members hate each other, siblings rival, friends unfriend each other, lovers quarrel. Christians are not exempted of these realities.  In any relationships, the key is to find your way back into love.

The Day Of Judgment Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

We must open our spiritual eyes and recognize that there are thousands of victories being won everyday around the world. We are referring to the victories of light over darkness. The Christian must balance his pessimism concerning the world with his optimism concerning the kingdom of God.

The optimist says the world is everyday in every way getting better and better. The pessimist says the world isn’t what it used to be, but is going to the dogs. The Christian realist says they are both right, because there are two kingdoms of reality. There is the world order, or that realm in ...read more

Contributed by Louis Posthauer on Apr 1, 2022

Just as the Lord proclaimed to Samuel the fulfillment of his prophecy concerning judgment of his leaders who were unfaithful and the establishment of faithful leaders over his house, so now He is coming to judge His church leaders.

As the first day of 2020 arrived, I found myself doing what I have always done for the last 40 years: seeking the Lord's word and focus for the coming year. This time, Jan. 1, 2020—something different happened. As I prayed and listened—"Here am I, Lord, speak"—I began to have a ...read more
