    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 10, 2019
     | 9,561 views

    Many times when we read the story of Jonah, our focus is on the significance of the great fish. But should that be our focus? This message looks at the message of Jonah that we often miss.

    Tonight, we’re going to have an opportunity to get into a story that’s very familiar to all of us. But I want to look at it from the vantage point of “Who was God trying to catch?” The Holy Spirit speaks to each one of us and He speaks to us individually with words specifically to us. But there ...read more

    In dealing with your anger, don’t commit murderous acts, don’t think murderous thoughts, and don’t speak murderous words. But if your anger has hurt someone, seek reconciliation and seek a resolution as soon as you can.

    Several years ago, the Arizona Republic carried a story about Steve Tran of Westminster, California. He activated 25 bug bombs in his apartment to get rid of some unwanted guests, the cockroaches that shared the space with him. He closed the door thinking he had seen the last of them.

    God wants us to help more people meet Jesus... 1. Because Jesus is our model (vs. 43). 2. Because Jesus is the Messiah (vs. 44-46). 3. Because the need is so massive (vs. 47-48). 4. Because the future is miraculous for all who believe (vs. 49-51).

    This message (inspired by Mario Murillo) addresses Millennials. Murillo says the devil fears "that you would find the one ingredient that would make you unstoppable . . . But what is it? We will see it in the account of a king – King Josiah."

    The Lord laid it on my heart this morning to speak to the upcoming generations who are beginning to find their place in society; those who are considered Millennials and younger. So, let me get started with some terminology. Millennials, also known as Generation Y, were born between 1981-1996. ...read more

     | 4,139 views

    What is theological reflection, as a modern concept? Theological reflection is the process by which we come to understand reality as it truly is. The goal ultimately is to see God, the universe, the inspired word, and ourselves, as God sees it.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,345 views

    There are three events in the life of Christ that get an awful lot of publicity: the birth of Jesus, the death of Jesus, and the resurrection of Jesus. We have recognized holidays for each of these: Christmas, Good Friday, and we have Easter. But the Ascension of Jesus is neglected by comparison.

     | 3,180 views

    FIRE burns out all the impurities in our life, and the knife chops out all the thoughts of ‘flesh’ in us. The challenges, afflictions and sufferings in our life are the FIRE that purifies us

    FIRE AND KNIFE! Genesis 22:6 “Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took in his hand the fire and the knife.

    Today we will be investigating some of the facts or proofs of Christ's resurrection.

    Last time, we looked at the various kinds of sufferings that Jesus Christ experienced both on His way to the Cross and once He was nailed to the Cross. We concluded, as the Scripture teaches, that Jesus died and was very much dead. He had to die in order to pay the penalty for our sin. Today we ...read more

    Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, was a legend in his own mind. Hear the testimony of a self-made man who was humbled and finally proclaimed Daniel's God as the God all in His kingdom were to worship.

By his mid-thirties he had founded a great law firm that was influential in both Boston and New York. And in his ...read more
