Remaining Faithful To God Series

Contributed by Pat Damiani on Apr 6, 2015

How to remain faithful to God for the long haul.

In some ways I wish that the book of Nehemiah had ended with chapter 12. There we saw the prepared, participating, purified passionate praise of the people that permeated their culture.

The Re-Orientation To The Program Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 19, 2017

"All authority in heaven and on earth is given to me." It was, probably, this announcement that led to the inquiry which Luke mentions next. Being informed that all authority is now given to him, the disciples expected to see him begin to exercise it.

"i Am": Jesus' Greatest Declaration

Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Sep 17, 2021

Jesus said, “I am,” he knew what lay ahead for himself and those who would follow him. “I AM!” is a declarative statement that few can make with the kind of authority and confidence that Jesus embodied. One will find seven reference to himself using “I Am”.
