Jesus: The Great Joy-Giver Series

Contributed by Mike Cleveland on Jan 9, 2008

Before we believe in Jesus, we are like the water jars: empty, stony hard hearts, sitting off to the side doing nothing. But Jesus is able to fill us, fill us to the brim, and transform us and then use us to bring joy to others. Believe it. Don’t think th

Colorful Marriages

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Dec 6, 2019

I love a chocolate and vanilla twist soft yogurt cone. Mixing flavors can bring about a beautiful and tasteful marriage experience. Yet, you do not mix gas and oil or saved and unsaved or one sect with another without peril.

I saw an article on interracial marriage and since race has been a big issue in recent days I figured I would say just a bit on this topic. First of all, race as we use the term is really an evolutionary term and should not even be considered or used by believers. There are no races. There is but ...read more

Captives Free

Contributed by Ian Hyde on Apr 29, 2019

Just as God was faithful to Israel by returning them to the land and restoring the nation when all hope had seemed lost; so today, Christ is faithful to transform ashes into a beautiful headdress, a spirit of mourning into the oil of gladness, and a faint spirit into a garment of praise.

A PEOPLE IN EXILE I want you to close your eyes for a moment.

This is from a transcript of a sermon preached by Dr. Jack Graham on June 5, 2016 Hebrews, chapter 1, verses 6 through 9: 6) And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” 7) Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels ...read more
