    Christians celebrate a Festival of Lights at Christmas and the Jews have Hanukkah, both pictures of the Spirit of God shining out in a dark world - see picture of Menorah.

    The Call To Discipleship

    Contributed by Vernon Price on Apr 11, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,250 views

    That is why the church of God must return to the preaching of the Cross. Yes, it offends. Yes, it alienates. Yes it is a stumbling block to many, and yes, it is sheer foolishness to others. But to those who believe, "It is the power of God unto salvation"

    The Call To Discipleship Imagine in your mind that you are a news reporter for station W-O-R-D in Jerusalem. You have been assigned the task of following some new religious fanatic who has appeared on the scene and seriously shaken the status quo. Not much of a Jew yourself, this whole scene ...read more

     | 11,945 views

    Men are always so busy doing things that we seldom stop to allow God to minister in our lives. This sermon encourages men to surrender themselves to Jesus so we may gain more than expected. This is a Men’s Day sermon I preached at my church.

    SIT DOWN AND BE COUNTED JOHN 6: 1 -13 The gospel according to St. John is vastly different than all of the other gospels. While the other three are called the synoptic gospels, which simply means that they give a synopsis or summary of Jesus’ life, John is after something different. John ...read more

    God has come not just to put His hand on us, not just to say ’Well done’ and give us a pat on the back and push us forward - but He has come to stay, He has come to dwell, He has come to reside with us!

    Standing In The Storm

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 26, 2025
     | 341 views

    Jesus teaches that storms are inevitable, but collapse is not; lives anchored in obedience to Christ stand firm when pressure reveals the foundation beneath them.

    There are storms we prepare for, and there are storms that arrive without warning. Some give us time. We see the clouds gathering. We hear the forecasts. We sense the pressure building in the air. Others come suddenly—without courtesy, without explanation, without asking whether this is a ...read more

    As a child I was more serious about avoiding Hell than going to Heaven. My knowledge of Heaven was inaccurate. A biblical understanding of Heaven creates a longing to go there.
