    My mother had the habit of walking with her eyes fixed on the ground. Wherever we would go, my father and my brother and I would be looking all around, enjoying what there was to see, but mother would be plodding along behind us, looking at the ground. We used to tell her, “You’re missing ...read more

    based on 71 ratings
     | 16,845 views

    Ezra is the story of the Jews’ return to Jerusalem after almost a century exile in Babylon. When they returned, all they found were ruins. There was no temple, so the people felt spiritually unplugged. Ezra is a story of how they got plugged in.

    Are You Plugged In to Study and Obey God’s Word? Ezra 3:1-3 By Dr. David O.

    There are four important things to know about basic training for disciples: A disciple never puts a stumbling block in others’ spiritual path; a disciple forgives quickly—and often; a disciple exercises faith; and a disciple demonstrates faithfulness.

    Basic Training for Disciples Luke 17:1-10 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION Even if you’ve never served in the military, you’ve probably heard of basic training.

    Prodigals still exist. These individuals rebel, stepping away from God’s blessings, indulging in reckless living and ruining their lives. But God runs to meet those who are at the point of total desperation and who are willing to repent and return home.

    How to Return to God Luke 15:11–24 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION The parable in this passage focuses on the character and nature of the God of the Bible.

  • The Supreme Question Of Life Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Apr 15, 2003
    based on 405 ratings
     | 113,973 views

    Many scholars believe this passage was based on a hymn that was sung by the early church. We all need to answer the question: Is Christ prominent in my life, or is He preeminent? He doesn’t just want a place in our lives, He demands first place.

    The Supreme Question of Life In Thursday’s Washington Post, an article appeared about a new church in the state of Maryland. I won’t reveal the name of the denomination that is behind this endeavor because I don’t want to publicly criticize it from the pulpit. You can look it up when this sermon ...read more

    Many times we can misunderstand Mary’s role in the redemption story. Let’s look at how God used Mary to bring His salvation to His people.

    Misunderstood Mary It’s not easy to be politically correct during the Christmas season. I recently came across a 90’s version of “The Night Before Christmas.” Let me read just part of it to you: Twas the night before Christmas and Santa’s a wreck... How to live in a ...read more

    This morning, as we take a look at Psalm 145, we will see that worship is designed to radically impact our very lives.

    The Impact of Worship I’m thankful for the staff we have at PBC. Our church secretary, Barb, has really done a super job with our weekly bulletin, don’t you think? On the rare occasion that we have a typo, it’s usually my fault for not catching it when I proof it. Other churches are not as ...read more

    Following Jesus means living a life of extravagant devotion to Jesus.

    Most people in our culture seem to think that it’s okay to be religious so long as you don’t take your religion too seriously. Many people today treat religion and faith as a kind of hobby, as if some people are into stamp collecting, some people are into building models airplanes, and other people ...read more

    Jesus in the garden demonstrates his love for us and his example to us.

  • Why Do Bad Things Happen? Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on May 30, 2003
    based on 78 ratings
     | 27,830 views

    It’s easy to think that bad things happen because God is out to get us. That’s not true. The Bible establishes some reasons why things don’t turn out they way we’d like – personal sin, corporate sin, and evil influences. While we can’t insulate ourselv

    Why Do Bad Things Happen? Brian Bill 4/22/01 I like puns. Here are two are my favorites. Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina. One went to Hollywood and became a famous actor.
