    based on 1 rating
     | 2,177 views

    Peter faced a challenge after he had preached the Gospel to Cornelius. This first section of Acts 11 gives his answer to the charges against him. Good things happened at the end, though!

    Introduction: This first section of Acts 11, verses 1-18, describes Peter’s response to those who were upset he had eaten with Gentiles. This would certainly be Cornelius’ household in Caesarea (see Acts 10), but the Jews in Judea didn’t have all the facts. Peter gave a step by step account of what ...read more

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jun 1, 2021
     | 1,447 views

    The names of several women in the line or ancestry of Jesus, the Messiah, are listed in Scripture. Many other such mothers are not. No matter if they're mentioned by name or no, each of these ladies can someday rejoice that they were among the mothers of the Messiah!

    Introduction: some of the women who are in the line of Jesus, the Messiah, are well-known. Some are mentioned only by name and others aren’t mentioned at all. Regardless, the Lord knows each one of them—by name—and allowed each one to be part of His plan to bring salvation to a lost and dying ...read more

  • The Memorial That Disappeared Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jun 11, 2021
     | 5,286 views

    The story of Elijah and the prophets of Baal is a classic. What we sometimes forget is that a memorial, an altar to the LORD, was already there before Elijah came! The rest of the story is gripping!

    Introduction: The days of Elijah were some of the best and some of the worst in Israel’s history. One of the highest points took place when God responded to Elijah’s prayer in a way that nobody could deny. Not only did this take place in the presence of pagan prophets, the event also took place ...read more

     | 5,346 views

    There were two memorials constructed of stones on the day Israel crossed the Jordan River and entered Canaan. The LORD knew that eventually people would ask about these memorials. God told Joshua what to do and say.

    Introduction: Moses had died and Joshua was now Israel’s leader to lead them into the Promised Land. When this story took place, Israel was camping on the east side of the Jordan River; Canaan itself was on the west. So that Israel would never forget what God did for them, God told Joshua to have ...read more

     | 4,926 views

    Some of us remember the Battle of Jericho but not very many remember Achan, who took some things which were not intended for anyone at the time. What he took, he couldn't keep, and he paid with his life.

    Introduction: Israel had just won their first victory in Canaan. They had followed God’s commands to walk around the city, shout, and then God would do the rest. They next decided to attack Ai, a smaller city, but something awful happened. The sin of one man was the reason why. 1 Achan’s deceit ...read more

     | 2,739 views

    Joshua built an altar to the LORD near Mount Ebal in Canaan. This happened after Israel had defeated Ai. Something unique to this altar was that Joshua wrote parts of the available Word of God on it.

    Introduction: Israel, under Joshua’s leadership, defeated the people of Ai. After that, Joshua built an altar to the LORD, God of Israel, placing it in about the middle of the country. Israel had built two other memorials as recorded in Joshua chapters 3-4, but the altar Joshua built here had a ...read more

    Pontius Pilate asked Jesus this question. The reply of Jesus to that question left Pilate very unsettled!

    Introduction: John chapter 18 records the arrest of Jesus while He and the disciples were in the garden of Gethsemane. In one of the most illegal trials of history, Jesus was questioned by several different people including Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea. Pilate, being a pagan Roman, ...read more

  • Seven Sundays To Easter: The End—but It Wasn’t Series

     | 3,097 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ had been sentenced to death by crucifixion. Once He died, most people believed that everything died along with Him. But it wasn't--three days later, He arose from Joseph's tomb, ALIVE!

    Introduction: The Lord Jesus Christ had been betrayed and arrested in the garden of Gethsemane, as all four Gospel writers describe in their works. What happened next is an attempt to get rid of Jesus by any means necessary in the minds of the religious leaders. It’s a sad commentary that ...read more

  • Seven Sundays To Easter: Mary Magdalene’s Undying Love For A Risen Savior Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Apr 1, 2021
     | 3,720 views

    John 20 records Mary Magdalene's journeys to the tomb where the body of Jesus was placed. She was the first person to see and speak with the Risen Lord Jesus, and showed Him her undying love.

    Introduction: Mary Magdalene was one of the women who followed Jesus during His earthly ministry. Jesus had cast seven demons out of her at an earlier time (Luke 7-8:2) so no doubt she would be grateful for that miracle. She was there when the Lord’s body was laid in the tomb (Mark 15:40-47) and ...read more

     | 3,573 views

    Rebekah, mother of Esau and Jacob, wanted Jacob to have the paternal blessing which Isaac was going to bestow on Esau. She developed a plan for Jacob to get it--and they went through with it. Results? Bad!

    Introduction: Jacob had already purchased Esau’s birthright (some might say, swindled Esau out of it) some years before this event took place. Now, with his mother Rebekah’s help, he was about to swindle his father, Isaac, out of Esau’s blessing. Jacob got the blessing, but he lost more than ever ...read more

  • Adversity

    Contributed by Jonathan White on Feb 5, 2022
     | 3,606 views

    We all face some type of adversity. I don’t want to compare adversity or determine who has it worse; but rather look to scripture to see what it says about adversity and how to better handle it.

    ADVERSITY INTRO: • We all have some type of adversity. • Last 2 years have been tough on everyone. • Although adversity differs from one person to the next, we all face it. • I don’t want to compare what adversity is worse than another. • Or who has the worst adversity. • I want us to look to ...read more

    Introduction: there was trouble in the camp. Jacob had tricked his father, Isaac, into receiving the paternal blessing Isaac wanted to give Esau, Jacob’s twin (and older) brother (Genesis 27).

    Jacob had traveled many miles from his home. He finally reached his uncle's land and in an almost "deja vu" moment, found his first true love!

    Introduction: Jacob had stopped near Bethel (Luz), many miles away from his home and family. He had a dream, probably one of the strangest but most striking he would ever know. He woke up, set up a stone as a pillar, and made a contract, so to speak, with God. Now he’s closer to Haran, the land ...read more

  • Daniel—the Captive Prince

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 1, 2020
     | 3,615 views

    Daniel was captured and taken from Jerusalem to Babylon. While there, he faced a number of challenges. How he faced these could well be an inspiration for us even today.

    Daniel—the captive prince Introduction: Daniel is one of the most well-known people in the whole Bible. Phrases like “the writing on the wall” and “thrown to the lions” are based on events in Daniel’s life—and he actually lived through these events, and more. He had the chance to reject the God of ...read more
