Contributed by David Mcnally on Jan 30, 2013

Redeemed From Rebellion

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 2, 2017

As Hosea redeemed his wife, Gomer, from the slave market, he revealed the unwavering love of God for Israel. This was also a beautiful picture of what Christ would do for humanity as He offered Himself the atoning sacrifice for sin.

Redeemed from Rebellion Hosea 3: 1-3 Last week we were introduced to the prophet Hosea, and the difficult situations brought upon the family due to the infidelity of his wife, Gomer.

Now Is The Time

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 23, 2017

Israel had wandered from God, even though He sought them to return. He wanted to bless them, but they had to meet God's conditions. The church has much potential, but we too must return to the Lord.

Now is the Time Hosea 10:12 Over the past few weeks we have considered the condition of Israel and her need for repentance. God loved His people and desired to have a fulfilling relationship with them. Unfortunately they sought the ways of the world and the desires of the flesh while neglecting ...read more

Only One Thing Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 14, 2021

David,-The Shepherd Boy Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Nov 7, 2020

David was perhaps Israel's greatest king. He wasn't born into a royal family, and didn't meet the guidelines some might have expected of a king, but God chose him. And that was enough.

Not every person will have a “shepherd-to-scepter” life or encounter, such as what happened to David. Every believer in ...read more

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 20, 2015
