Do You Understand What You Are Reading?

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 30, 2022

We read Scripture because we want to know more about God and His plan for us. But do we really understand?

Thursday of the 3rd week in Easter It is no surprise that whenever someone is reading from the OT during NT times, he is probably reading from an Isaiah scroll. The only time that Jesus gave His disciples an extensive Bible lesson, He began with Moses and then the prophets and asked “was it not ...read more

I Am The Bread Of Life Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 2, 2022

When we focus only upon temporal physical and superficial longings – represented by physical bread – we neglect our eternal deep spiritual needs, represented by spiritual bread, the Lord Jesus Christ Himself.

I Am the Bread of Life (John 6:35-51) 1. Most writers know not to use mixed metaphors. Here are some examples: 1. She was a couch potato in the gravy boat of life, flopping dejectedly on the sofa. 2.

Manna Won't Save Us

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on Aug 24, 2024

The great "I AM" comes to us as the bread of life. Do you really have to eat his flesh and drink his blood?

Offended By Jesus Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Aug 28, 2024

I want to answer one question this morning: How Do You Know if You are a Genuine Believer?

Can you remember a time when you were truly offended? I’ll be 53 later this year, and I was recently asked if I’d like the “senior discount” at a nearby restaurant. After I noted all my grey hair, the waitress really recovered well when she said, “Well, you don’t have wrinkles on your face.” Have ...read more

Several years ago, the Tokyo Times carried a report about a 19-year-old man who was desperate to get to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport. So he hopped a bus and demanded that the driver take him there. He was hijacking the bus, but few of the passengers were concerned. For one thing, the hijacker wasn’t ...read more

Serving God

Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 19, 2024

Howard Ingram had an old saying, “Many Christians have just enough religion to make them miserable.” Serving God should be one of the greatest things in the world.

Many Christians have a wrong idea, view, and attitude toward serving God. There are those today that do not love God’s service. It should be the greatest thrill and joy of our lives. John 15:16; tells us that we are chosen by God. Many, when talking or preaching about service, want to tune you ...read more

The Gospel Of John: An Introduction Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 31, 2021

Arguably with no other book, is there a larger disconnect between academic, scholarly understanding, and the way the church reads it. The intro is designed to bridge part of that gap, and explain my own approach to John.

First of all, a note on my approach: This series uses a literary/narrative approach to John, along the lines proposed by scholars like Adele Berlin, Frank Kermode, Robert Alter, or Charles Talbert, to name just a few. I assume that the author/narrator of John-- who I call "AJ"-- had ...read more

Learning From The Passover (Exodus 12:1-28) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 12, 2022

The Passover is not "our" festival. But there are things about it, that we should learn and carry over to how we "observe" the Lord's supper.
