The Tower Of Babel And The Church

Contributed by Larry Turner on Jan 29, 2014

Two groups of people with more in common than we admit.

I am a big fan of the cartoon script Charlie Brown. I have been since my teenage years. I always seemed to associate myself to poor old Charlie Brown who was forever asking the question “Why me?” In a Peanuts cartoon, Lucy demands that Linus change TV channels and then threatens him ...read more

The King's Defense

Contributed by Sean Harder on Aug 29, 2013

Many questions we ask are not really coming from a place of curiosity but have ulterior motives, and we’re going to see that in action today.

The middle part of Matthew chapter 22 is incredible. Three groups are going to use questions to try and trap Jesus into saying something that will get him killed. They all, government, the Pharisees, and Sadducees all wanted to get rid of Him. The Herodians represent the secular, political and ...read more

Blessed?

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Feb 20, 2019

Where do you look to for evidence of God's blessing? Are you looking to the right places? Jesus tells us to look to some rather unusual places to find his blessing while also providing us with a list of warnings.

How are you doing this morning? There used to be a man who when he walked into church on Sunday mornings and I asked him how he was doing, he would respond with a single word. He would say, “Blessed!” Every week he said the same thing. How many of us would give that response today? Maybe all ...read more

Desired By The People Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 4, 2017

As Jesus' ministry grew in popularity, He often was forced to minister in the outlying areas to accommodate the crowds that gathered. The church needs to capture this passion and desire to be in the presence of the Lord.

Desired by the People Mark 3: 7-12 The rapid pace we have become accustomed to in Mark’s Gospel continues. Jesus seldom stays in one place for extended periods of time. He is continually on the move, ministering to different people, with varied needs, in different places. Such is the case with ...read more

The Predecessor From God

Contributed by Dr. Jeffrey Dukeman on Dec 3, 2018

John the Baptist was a predecessor from God at Jesus' Baptism. We today should reflect on all those who have preceded us and helped us to know God, and we should also strive to be predecessors from God for others.

Historian David Barton has an interesting discussion in an article entitled “Christmas—as Celebrated by the Presidents.” Barton writes, Even though Christmas did not become a national holiday until 1870, it has a centuries old history in America. Interestingly, in colonial America, the southern ...read more

Brought Before Pilate Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 5, 2018

As Jesus stood before Pilate and His accusers, they were astonished at His silence. The King of glory stood before them, and yet they failed to see Him. He was committed to the cross, to provide our redemption.

Brought before Pilate Mark 15: 1-5 It had been a long, grueling night for Jesus, but the extreme difficulty was not over. He had been betrayed by Judas in the Garden of Gethsemane and arrested by the angry mob. From there He was led to stand before the high priest in a mock trial, filled with ...read more

Not Just Business As Usual Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on May 1, 2019

While the crucifixion is a brutal affair it must be recognised that, for the Roman soldiers, this event is business as usual. However, as those who are reading about these events, we cannot treat the crucifixion in a business-as-usual fashion.

Message John 19:16b-27 Not Business As Usual Read John 19:16b-27 Modern technology means that we have been on-the-spot witnesses to many atrocities which have occurred in the last few years.

"How To Walk Wisely In The World” Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Aug 19, 2019

As we pass through this world on our way to heaven, witnessing should be a priority for the Christian.

As Paul speaks about the Christian’s walk in this world, he tells us we need to walk wisely. We do this, he says, by taking advantage of every opportunity to give a verbal witness for Jesus. Why should witnessing be a priority for believers as we are living in this world? Two reasons: Reason #1: ...read more
