    Costly Obedience

    Abraham faced the greatest trial of his life when God asked him to sacrifice the child of promise. From it, we learn that God tests our faith, grows our faith, and models sacrifice as the Heavenly Father gives his only Son for us.

    Genesis 22:1-14 Costly Obedience Sometimes we go through such heavy trials in this life. And, if we’re honest, we may wonder, “God, why are you allowing this to happen to me? I’m trying to follow you best I can. Why, Lord?” Yet, perhaps the better question would be, “Lord, what do you want me to ...read more

    Count it pure joy in times of trial, testing and temptation??? That's CRAZY, right? No so fast, partner! This whole plan of salvation us upside down to this world; God dying for our sins? Why not joy in times of trouble! God is for us and with us! PTL!!

    As we take a look at our newest memory Scripture let’s look at the preceding verse James 1:1 “James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: Greetings.” Who is this James? There were two of the twelve named James Matthew ...read more

     | 8,942 views

    Wisdom! The Lord has it and He wants you to get it from Him! We need to pursue the Lord and His wisdom with a single minded focus in order to glorify God by being "a servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ".

    Wisdom! Is there anyone here who is wise and has all of the wisdom they will ever need? And, you all have probably heard the old quote attributed to Yogi Berra about the fork in the road, “When you come to a fork in the road, take it!” Life is filled with forks in the road, choices, ...read more

    Straight Outta Context: Philippians 4:13 Series

    Contributed by Paul Basehore on Sep 16, 2015
     | 10,969 views

    Philippians 4:13 does not say that we can literally do anything. What it does say, though, is that a super-powered God will willingly and repeatedly share His strength with us when things get difficult.

    Superheroes are a multi-million dollar enterprise. Superhero movies have more than 13 billion dollars in revenue since 1978 -- and that’s just the movies. Comic book sales in 2015 alone have reached 334 million dollars -- and the year’s not even done yet! In addition, the numbers I just ...read more

     | 3,138 views

    When we ignore God and His power and try to do things in our own power and might, we would wither away quickly! Caveat!

    Beauty perishes! James 1:11”For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.” For many years I did not get any flowers from any students, but few students who ...read more

    We can neither escape experiencing the evils of this world nor can we avoid God’s testing the quality of our devotion by letting us experience reality. It is important, however, that we do not let the hard times damage our faith and service to Christ.
