And he has given us spiritual ears with which we can hear his voice. In our Bible reading for today ...read more

     | 7,216 views

    To remain faithful in the face of pressure, we need to be grounded in our identity as followers of Christ, with knowledge, obedience, and love.

    We spend one Sunday a year praying for persecuted Christians around the world. Of course there’s the “Martyr of the Month” column in the newsletter, and occasionally our bulletin inserts will highlight a trouble spot or a new martyr. But that’s all the time most of us spend ...read more

    Paul teaches us in Philippians 2:1-11 the facets of a positive life are, humility, generosity, and obedience.

    This morning we continue our study of Philippians. Two weeks ago we studied Philippians 1:1-10. Here we discovered a man who had every reason not to be happy, but yet he was filled with joy.

     | 4,970 views

    In all his obedience Jesus was standing in for us, doing for us what we could never do for ourselves.

    “Just do it.” That’s the way Nike hopes to motivate us to “get back to sport,” as they put it, to get back in the game. “Just do it,” they tell us, and, of course, they also tell us: the best way to “do it” is to use their shoes and their gear. ...read more

    What The Bible Teaches About Baptism

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Sep 26, 2021
     | 899 views

    Baptism is an outward picture of an inward change that happened at salvation. It is the first act of obedience to our new life in Christ.

    The Great Commission of evangelizing the world was given to the New Testament church. Our job is not complete until the convert is baptized. The burden rests upon the church to teach the doctrine of baptism. The burden rests upon the convert to conform to it after they have been taught. Many saved ...read more
