The Church Is Missional Series

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jul 5, 2022

"god's Mercy Seat."

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Jul 16, 2022

God is beyond our comprehension as our limited three-pound brain cannot fathom his true nature. He has always existed and is the ultimate ruler of everything. Therefore, he does not rely on any created thing to sustain him, but everything that exists must depend on him for its continued existence.

What Is Love?

Contributed by Grant Adams on Aug 2, 2022

You could get hundreds of answers to this question. The true answer is found in God. God so loved the world.

The greatest love ever expressed was the love shown to a Christ denying world when Christ died upon the cross for the sins of all mankind. Love was manifest at Calvary. Many Christian people are not really sure God loves them, even after he has saved us. Sometimes because of the trying ...read more

God's Errands

Contributed by Terry Spriestersbach on Jun 14, 2021

Henry Ward Beecher wrote, “Difficulties are God’s errands and when we are sent upon them, we should esteem it a proof of God’s confidence.”

It seems as if a number of the errands one might run are often for someone else. We can spend more than half of our free time out running ...read more

Love Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 19, 2021

We often think of love as some syrupy, sweet, tingly, sentimental, ooey, gooey feeling. Biblical or divine love, however, is a self-sacrificing, caring commitment that shows itself in seeking the highest good for the one being loved.

According to the musical wisdom of John, Paul, George, and Ringo ... otherwise known as "The Beatles" to us older folks … “All you need is love, love … love is all you need.” Well … that and food … and shelter … and air … and sleep … Love is literally in the air. You hear that word ...read more
