     | 5,094 views

    A properly functioning eldership provides plurality in leadership, unity of purpose and a system of checks & balances. Biblical eldership is kingdom government & ultimately it’s about understanding & becoming the person God wants each of us to be.

    Biblical Eldership: The Government of God Intro.: It’s not always easy to be objective about the structure and government of the New Testament Church. We are influenced by the teaching we’ve had. So it’s often difficult to approach the subject with an open mind. But, we need to seriously examine ...read more

     | 6,645 views

    We Christians anticipate the return of Jesus the Christ. We are not always clear on what will occur when He returns. The message is a consideration of His purpose in coming again.

    “Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. He will tend his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms; he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.” ...read more

    The Snake On The Pole

    based on 9 ratings
     | 10,565 views

    Let nothing--nothing!--turn your attention from your snake on the pole--let nothing distract you from your Savior on the cross. Through such seemingly silly ways, God gives to you--not a snake on the pole--but His Son on the cross.

    Introduction That whole snake-on-a-pole thing must have sounded insane to some of the Israelites. Stare at a bronze serpent and you’ll be healed? That sounds ridiculous. It must’ve sounded just silly enough that some Israelites started looking for more reasonable solutions to the ...read more

     | 12,212 views

    How do you know if you are inching away from a relationship with God? The story of the Prodigal Son features two sons - this is the one who don’t often hear about. Yet he usually bears the closest resemblance to those in the church.

    The Prodigal Who Stayed Home Luke 15:1, 2, and 25-32 "Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach. This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such despicable people - even eating with them!" These two verses from ...read more

    The Prodigal Who Stayed Home Series

    Contributed by Steven Chapman on Jun 22, 2015
     | 11,304 views

    This message speaks of the son of interest to Jesus in his most well-known story - not on the prodigal who left home, but the prodigal who stayed home. Of particular interest is the difference in this son's response and the Fathers to the other.

    The Prodigal Who Stayed Home Luke 15:1, 2, and 25-32 "Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach.

    A look at why Saul was rejected, but David was called a man after Gods own heart even though they both failed. It was because David, trusted God, was humble, and knew how to repent.

    Having a heart after God’s own. Acts 13:22 22After removing Saul, he made David their king. He testified concerning him: ’I have found David son of Jesse a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.’ Today I want to compare the lives of two men, Saul and David.
