    Contributed by Perry Greene on Apr 2, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,574 views

    This Easter sermon focuses on the resurrection of Jesus and the potential resurrection of his followers which complete the story of Jesus. We often focus on his death, but the empty tomb is good news that requires a response.

    1. The Rest of the Story was a Monday-through-Friday radio program originally hosted by Paul Harvey. Beginning as a part of his newscasts during the Second World War and then premiering as its own series on the ABC Radio Networks on May 10, 1976, The Rest of the Story consisted of stories presented ...read more

    Jesus Offers Real Rest 1) To hardworking disciples; 2) To clueless crowds

    A favorite topic of conversation at this time of year is vacation plans. I think I can tell you what most of my friends from the gym are doing for their summer holidays. One is going to Hawaii. Another ran a mountain race over the Crow’s Nest Pass. Another drove twenty plus hours to the B.C. ...read more

    The Road To Rest

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Feb 19, 2025
     | 201 views

    Jesus calls us to come and rest in Him. That word "Come" is a call to all who are weary and heavy-laden to come to Him. It's a compound word that means "here" and "come"--so, Jesus is giving His call to "Come here", to "Come here to Me!"

    The Road to Rest Matthew 11:25-30 John Bunyan's classic analogy of the Christian life, Pilgrim's Progress follows the journey of the main character named Christian as he travels from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, which describes the spiritual journey of a Christian towards ...read more

    The good news in the text is, “There is no limit to what God can do in us and through us if we allow His Spirit to freely work in us.” God can make us what we ought to be if we allow his power work in us.

    Subject: “Allowing God's Power to Work In Us” Text: Ephesians 3:14-21 “When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.

    Jesus set the example of our need for spiritual and physical rest and renewal.

    WHEN IT COMES TO THE HEALTH OF OUR SOULS, I BELIEVE WE ALL NEED A QUIET PLACE WHERE WE CAN GO TO FIND REST AND LASTING REFRESHMENT. IT SHOULD BE A SECLUDED PLACE AND A PRIVATE PLACE. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT IN ORDER TO REACH SUCH A PLACE, WE DON’T HAVE TO TRAVEL VERY FAR. UNDERSTANDING THE NEED FOR ...read more
