God Is Fully Revealed In Jesus Christ Series

Contributed by Mike Cleveland on Nov 5, 2007

The one requirement that we have in this life is that we know God. Without that we do not have eternal life; we have eternal punishment. So Jesus came to reveal God, to make Him known. The method of knowing God is through forgiveness of our sins, where we

When Trumpets Fade Series

Contributed by Carl Allen on Jan 13, 2009

I want to draw your attention to one common theme that punctuates each of these references. That common theme is the mention of the "trumpet". We are told in clear language that the Rapture will be a time that will be heralded with the sound of trumpets.

Going Forward With God Series

Contributed by Joel Smith on Jan 24, 2009

A rather mediocre sermon about Jacob’s facinating encounter with God at the Jabbok. The so-so title tells it all.

If you take the Bible seriously, it’s quite a frustrating book. Within its pages are outrageous commands like “be holy” (1 Peter 1:16) and “offer the parts of your body to [God] as instruments of righteousness” (Romans 6:13). Jesus laid a heavy burden on us when He said, “…be perfect, just as ...read more

Unspectacular Faith: The Story Of Esther

Contributed by Terry Barnhill on Jan 28, 2009

Often times our attempts to be faithful servants of God make us feel so alienated from those around us, that it seems impossible to both “serve God” and “be in this world” at the same time.
