When God Doesn't Make Sense Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 16, 2021

Maybe the Lord didn't show up when you needed Him. Maybe there was absolute silence in response to your most desperate prayers. It's happened before, and to people Jesus loved dearly. What could account for Jesus' seeming uncaring response?

Boy, we live in some tumultuous times, don’t we? Earthquake and tsunami in Japan. A nuclear disaster there as a result. Uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt and Libya. Our nation involved in wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and now Libya. And wasn’t it only a few months ago that a huge earthquake ...read more

Power Evangelism Explained (John 11:1-54, Part 2) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 21, 2022

How did Jesus do his signs, and how were the disciples able to do the signs? And what can we learn from this?

The last few weeks, I've been pushing the idea that God will still do signs, and wonders, and healings through us, as Jesus works in us, through the power of the Holy Spirit. I think God is far more willing to do great things in the world through us than we realize. I think the weakness, and ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 1, 2022

There are many advantages of living in a small community. One of the things you will notice immediately is how friendly people are, and how much they care for each other.

For example, if you drive through the mountains of North Carolina on some of the old dirt roads where neighbors live five and ten miles apart, you will notice that the people in the yard will stop what they are doing when you drive by, smile, and wave at you. That is so different from people who ...read more

All Glory And Honor To The Son Of God

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 1, 2022

Jesus' Divinity was shown in the healing of a man on the Sabbath Day (John 5:16) and declaring Himself equal with God (John 5:17-18). The religious authorities sought to kill Him yet should have honored Him. Their failure to do so condemned them. Don't make that mistake.

The Scriptures tell of the authority and power the Lord Jesus has over His creation and the affairs of humanity. The four gospels present what Jesus said and did to demonstrate to those who were willing to truly hear and see that He was the fulfillment of prophecy and the One who was the ...read more

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 25, 2021

Jesus said with His tears that He approved of that kind of sorrow. There is a valid place for tears in the Christian life. We need never fear nor be ashamed of the tears of the hopeful.

One of the oldest and most universal of all questions is the one of Job, "If a man die shall he live again?" In the ancient world almost everyone believed that death was a gateway into another world, and so they buried their dead with food and tools to be used when they arrived. This is ...read more
