Sermons on Inferiority:

Excellence Excludes Excess Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

Paul says this is what Christian leaders are to be. They are not to be people who get captured by the culture, or by circumstances. They are to be people who are stable and consistent in their commitments regardless of changes in life.

As I read Barbara Shields book Winners-Women And The Nobel Prize, I was so impressed by the life and leadership of Agnes Gunxha, better known as Mother Teresa. As I read of her life and ministry I kept seeing her fulfilling the requirements that Paul lays down for one to be an elder, or leader, in ...read more

God Of The Bible

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jul 24, 2024

Thinking correctly about God is of utmost importance because a false idea about God is idolatry. It is much easier to know doctrines than it is to know God - because you don't have to pay a price to know the doctrines.

The first and primary evidence for the existence of God is the existence of the creation. It is only natural that man, being a reasoning creature, should ask questions about the creation and the creator. Obviously, the universe and all that in it, had not been created by man, and yet its design ...read more

Other times I’ve been on the list for VA loans - except I’m not a veteran. I’ve received calls for ...read more

Blessed Are They That Mourn

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Oct 27, 2022
