    From Death To Life Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 28, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,747 views

    There's a repetitive theme in Scripture: heroes and heroines of the Bible seemingly all go through the process of being given a vision by God, followed by the death of that vision, and ultimately the rebirth of that vision. How did that pattern apply to Jesus and how does it apply to us?

    OPEN: (We showed the image of a fallen tree (https://imgur.com/iP32qff) I saw this picture on the internet about a month ago and it took me a while to realize what I was looking at. Obviously the tree has been uprooted and it’s lying on the ground with its dead limbs extending along the ground. But ...read more

    What is this wedding feast Jesus tells of, and what can I do to make sure I'm included?

    Randy Alcorn told story about his friend Ruthanna Metzgar, a professional singer. She had been asked to sing at the wedding of a very wealthy man, and they were invited to the reception. It was being held on the top two floors of the Columbia Tower in Seattle - the tallest skyscraper in the ...read more

     | 9,316 views

    By Faith, Abel offered a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain did. But what does that mean? What made the sacrifice more acceptable? And what can that mean for us?

    OPEN: I read from a Children’s book the story of Cain and Abel. You know, it’s odd - we ALL seem to know the story about Cain and Abel. But Cain gets more “PRESS” from Scripture than Abel does. Cain is mentioned in 18 verses but Abel ONLY gets 11 verses (about 1/3 less attention). But the PRESS ...read more

    Scary Scripture Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,709 views

    Paul warned Timothy to keep a close watch on his life and on THE TEACHING because "in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you." Why is what we teach so critical to the salvation of ourselves and our listeners?

    OPEN: Shortly after I got out of Bible College there was a popular church near Ft. Wayne that attracted thousands of attenders that was called “The Glory Barn” (the building looked like it had been a barn). I went to their worship a couple of times myself just to see what the attraction was, and I ...read more

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Feb 5, 2023
     | 3,669 views

    Mark Twain said, “Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear, and the blind can see.” Many think it only take willpower to be kind. No, it takes supernatural power to be kind.

    Did you see the recent news article about the cabbie that found $187,000 in cash? Yes, a Boston taxi cab driver dropped off a homeless man at a hotel. The homeless man had just finished living in a homeless shelter for the past six months when he inherited the incredible sum of money. Yes, you ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 1, 2024
     | 751 views

    Paul recounts his own bodily illness and looks again to labouring in birth to deliver the Galatians from the bondage of false teachers. Paul’s sensitivities are at the fore in this letter, and his love for the Galatians was yearning for their deliverance from error.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 4:12-20 - MESSAGE 15 – PAUL’S HEART WAS OUTPOURED FOR THE GALATIANS PART [A] - HUMBLED TO BECOME AS THE GALATIANS WERE {{Galatians 4:12 “I beg of you, brethren, become as I am, for I also have become as you are.

    Saved A Wretch Like Me Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,699 views

    People struggle with being called "wretches" (like Amazing Grace has labeled us). The question is - are we "wretches", and if we are - why is that important to know?

    I love to sing so I’m going to ask you sing a couple old hymns with me: “Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that SAVED A WRETCH LIKE ME. I once was lost, but now I’m found. Was blind, but now I see. “At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away. ...read more

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 13, 2013
    based on 47 ratings
     | 48,225 views

    Greed is listed as one of the worst of sins - right up there with lewdness, adultery, and murder. But how likely am "I" to be plagued by greed? And how can God cure me of this terrible sin?

    Back in the 1800’s there was once a 350# wrestler in Europe named “Yusuf, the terrible Turk.” Three hundred and fifty pounds is a fairly huge man, and there wasn’t an ounce of flab on the man. He was formidable. And in his four years in Europe, he was impossible to beat, ...read more

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 7, 2014
    based on 34 ratings
     | 35,527 views

    Nazareth would seem to be an insignificant backwater town. That's how most scholars have painted it. The city didn't even seem to make much difference in the life of Christ. But is there more to its story?

    OPEN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGlEte0qPFM What you just saw was the opening celebration for last year’s “Christmas in Nazareth”. It’s a 5 day festival that begins with the lighting of a Christmas tree and fireworks. In the following days there are parades, ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 18,430 views

    God tells us that Joseph was a "just man" because he was "unwilling to put (Mary) to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly." What does that mean? And what does difference can it make to our faith?

    OPEN: (We began the service with a clip from the movie "The Star" that showed Mary and Joseph at their wedding party just before Mary is going to tell Joseph that she's pregnant with the Christ Child) There’s a true story about a grade school class that was putting on a Christmas which included ...read more

    What Does It Mean To Be Successful?

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 25, 2019
     | 3,812 views

    The dictionary has definitions of success and successful. Being successful in this life is no guarantee one will be successful in the next life!

    Preface: The dictionary has a few definitions of success, mostly with the idea of accomplishing something or acquiring something (you either do something or get something you want to do). Jesus has been engaged in teaching and conversation with others (see chapter 11 and 12:1-12) but some of the ...read more

     | 21,204 views

    God’s timing is not always our timing, but it is always right. Here’s how to wait on Him.

    Contributed by Jonathan Twitchell on Oct 26, 2006
     | 4,950 views
