Doubts

Contributed by Bill Butsko on May 2, 2011

Would You Believe...? Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 27, 2008

John repeatedly explains how critical "believing" is to the Christian. In fact he stresses faith nearly twice as much as the other 3 gospels. Why?

And what ...read more

A Slow Fade In Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on May 19, 2008

The reality of the resurrection dawned slowly on those involved. Each was missing a crucial piece of the story. How does Jesus put the story of His new life together for you?

In broadcasting or film making there are several types of ways of getting from one scene to another. Two of the most common are a cut and a fade. In a cut one scene is suddenly replaced with another. In a fade one scene fades out to black and is then slowly replaced with another that fades back up ...read more
