"You Want Us To What?"

Contributed by Randall Long on Aug 2, 2017

When Jesus' followers give Him what they have, little though it is, He does a miracle and feeds many through them.

The events in today's text took place at a pivotal time in the apostles' relationship with the Lord. They had just returned from their first "mission trip", when He had given them authority over unclean spirits and diseases and had sent them out to preach. They had a lot to tell Him, but there ...read more

Preparing For Prayer

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 10, 2022

An overview of how to truly prepare yourself before you go to God in prayer.

I have shared with a few of you the past few days or weeks that after the Bible study in the Book of Daniel I was thinking about explaining and giving detailed instructions on centering prayer. I haven’t done that in a number of years so I thought it would be good to discuss it this evening. I ...read more

Hebrew Word Study: Racham, Love Is Complete When Returned Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 13, 2022

You might say that the expression of their love for one another in community, took love from being on the page, to love being something real and complete.

“During World War II, Hitler commanded all religious groups to unite so that he could control them. Among the Brethren assemblies, half complied and half refused. Those who went along with the order had a much easier time. Those who did not, faced harsh persecution. In almost every family of those ...read more

Let’s now look at the seven bowls or vials of God’s wrath and begin to understand why God is angry with sin, in Revelation 16.

Let’s now look at the seven bowls or vials of God’s wrath and begin to understand why God is angry with sin, in Revelation 16. Revelation 16:1 And ...read more

How God Comforts The Downcast Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 16, 2019

This passage shares the encouraging truth that "God . . . comforts the downcast." It also points out one of the major ways that He does that: through the people He's put around us.

DOES GOD CARE ABOUT THE DOWNCAST? He cares enough that He has put the answer all around us. - 2 Corinthians 7:6 – “God . . . comforts the downcast” - We doubt. We feel discouraged and downcast and we wonder if God cares. - And this is a big deal because there are so many today who struggle ...read more

Daniel's Vision Of World History Part 1 Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 30, 2022

In the first part of this vision that God gave Daniel, we see that God wanted Daniel and all succeeding generations to know the major events of world history up until the very end.

Last time we spoke about this great cosmic warfare being fought for the souls of people. The warfare is being waged by the angels of God and the angels of Satan who are locked in a constant fight to influence the behavior of people and nations. We got a glimpse of this warfare in the previous ...read more

The Burning Bush Call Of Moses Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 3, 2022

Moses put his neck on the line once. And he felt like a failure. Is he willing to be that vulnerable again? Is he willing to trust God with his life? That is the challenge of Moses. That is the challenge for everyone who follows the call of God.

The call of God is as unique for every individual as is every person. For Gideon it was the fleece and that differs widely from Ezekiel and his lofty falling facedown vision of the throne of God. Isaiah with the burning coal placed on his lips differs from Paul on the Damascus Road and his ...read more

The Paradox Of Weakness

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Feb 22, 2025

This morning we looked at St. Paul's teaching about Weakness, and the Paradox of the fact that the weaker he was, and of course, the weaker we are, the greater we can see God as He uses us as a painter uses a canvas.

Good morning. We read from Paul, If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. I hope to show you this morning, as we look at Paul’s message to the Corinthians, that these might just be some of the most comforting words that you can find in the Bible. I’m thankful for these ...read more
