Contributed by William Meakin on Mar 1, 2024

An arachnid is defined as a class of animal that includes spiders, scorpions, mites and ticks.

Making The Most Of Every Opportunity

Contributed by David Owens on Mar 25, 2024

Where did the Easter holiday come from? How do Christians and Churches navigate holidays in a way that takes advantage of what is on people's minds without creating religious holidays and traditions that are not biblically authorized?

A. One day an atheist was complaining to his Christian friend, “You Christians have your special holidays, such as Christmas and Easter and Jews celebrate their special holidays, such as Passover and Yom Kippur, but we atheists have no recognized special holidays. It’s just not fair!” 1. The ...read more

Thoughts In 2 Peter – Number 7 - A Look At Peter’s Exposure Of Destructive Wolves/ False Teachers – 2 Peter 2:1-3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 27, 2026

Superficial knowledge of the scriptures allows error on a large scale. The words of false teachers are false, but the false becomes true to those who are deceived. Error thrives in untaught conditions just as disease thrives in unsanitary environments. Peter opens up on these savage wolves.

Defending The Faith Series

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on May 20, 2025

In the opening verses of Jude, we’re reminded that following Christ means embracing a new identity—one marked by complete submission and ownership by Jesus. This message calls the Church to stay alert and defend the faith from subtle internal threats that distort grace and divide the body.

But, May 1st of this year marked half a decade that I’ve been here at New Hope, and in fact, this month, although it’s almost over, marks exactly 2 full years since I’ve started preaching here. Kind of a ...read more
