Contributed by Marc Phillips on Nov 18, 2014

We must be doers of the word, not just hearers. Sermon uses the song "Do Something" By Matthew West as an illustration to show that we are God's hands and feet, who are we to complain about things, and not do anything about them?

My understanding of biblical love includes an attitudinal response and demonstrated obedience, ...read more

Only Jesus can make a jailhouse rock as he puts a song in Paul's heart and a spring in the jailer's step.

In a 1957 movie, Elvis Presley made prison look like a rip roarin’ time when he sang “Jailhouse Rock.” The truth is Jesus made a jailhouse rock long before Elvis did and it was no staged production. It was a real-life event punctuated by an earthquake, a jail break, and a midnight ...read more
