  • Today, If You Hear His Voice . . . Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 1, 2021
     | 3,334 views

    The possibility of falling away from Christ is greater than most of us think--no one is entirely immune from this awful outcome. It all begins with how we come to respond to God's voice, when we know He has spoken to us, and even in small things, choose to ignore Him.

    One of the great challenges of the pastoral profession is discerning who to help among those who are in evident financial need, and when to help them, and then how much to help them. Despite our best and most sincere efforts, pastors young and old, sometimes fail. I remember well the story of a ...read more

  • How To Finish Well Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 8, 2021
     | 2,908 views

    Stories abound of folks who began well in the Christian faith, and in ministry, but failed to finish well. What does the Word of God say about how we can be motivated to follow Jesus faithfully to the end?

    I was listening to one of our secular news and talk radio stations one morning this past week. And there was an innocent joke, of all things, about our subject this morning. A married couple was having a debate about who should get out of bed in the mornings to brew the coffee. Finally, the ...read more

  • How To Deal With An Impossible Situation Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 15, 2021
     | 5,912 views

    Jesus and His disciples faced an absolutely impossible situation--10,000 people to feed in a deserted place, little food and too little money. How should we respond when we face the same kind of situation?

    “Life is difficult.” So says the first three words of a best-selling book by Dr. M. Scott Peck, an author and Psychiatrist, who wrote “The Road Less Traveled.” And He goes on to say that the key to dealing with the difficulty of life is just simply realizing and accepting the fact that life is ...read more

  • Accept No Substitutes Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 15, 2021
     | 2,174 views

    Various pseudo-Christian spin offs claim to provide exclusively the priesthood that allows its worshipers to be made right with God. However, Hebrews 5 presents the truth that there is only one priest we will ever need--the Great High Priest Jesus Christ.

    In the summer of my 19th year I was excited to take a summer job in Yellowstone National Park working as a dishwasher in Canyon Village. I say I was excited, because I had longed dreamed of the great trout fishing amid all the natural beauty that Yellowstone is famed for. But what I didn’t count ...read more

  • The Kind Of Person God Protects Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 17, 2021
     | 5,561 views

    Many of the promises of God's protection or provision in the Bible are actually conditional. They absolutely don't apply to anybody and everybody. Jesus shows us in John 6 exactly what kind of people can expect His protection and provision, and what kind of people can't.

    Psalm 91 has always, from very early in my Christian life, been one of my favorite Psalms, because it speaks so beautifully and certainly of the Lord’s protection. I mean, just listen to it—it’s makes for beautiful poetry as well as for comforting thoughts—“He who dwells in the shelter of the ...read more

  • No Turning Back Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Feb 22, 2021
     | 5,523 views

    One of the most sobering warnings in all of Scripture is found in Hebrews 6. There is a great, even awful danger of making an irreversible and eternally destructive choice to abandon Christ. This passage stresses why you don't want to go there.

    This past year I faced a bit of a dilemma. My high school class, the class of 1970, was planning to celebrate its 50-year class reunion. I was invited. Would I go? That wasn’t the real dilemma. The real dilemma was that my spiritual father was on the organizing committee—yes, the fellow who ...read more

  • An Anchor For The Soul Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 2, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,511 views

    Tossed to and fro by the difficulties of persevering in the faith? What or whom do we look to for assurance and reassurance? Hebrews 6:9-20 tells us where to find an anchor for our souls.

    I imagine as we come to the very middle of the Book of Hebrews it might be legitimate for any of you to ask if I’m ever tempted to quit, to just blow off the Christian life, to abandon Christ. And my answer is not so much that, though I must admit the thought has occurred to me, but always with ...read more

  • The Only Priest Who Matters Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 7, 2021
     | 2,541 views

    Many so-called Christian churches claim that believers can only maintain a right relationship with God and the hope of heaven through the priests, or mediators, that they have authorized for these purposes. Does God's word support such a teaching. Find out from Hebrews 7:1-19.

    About a decade ago, I found a biological dentist who practiced in Southern California who was uniquely able to help me with some dental work that I needed done in relationship to the fatigue and the cancer I had acquired. I made a point of going down to Southern California, having made an ...read more

  • Breaking Point: Faith That Saves Vs. Faith That Doesn't Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 10, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,348 views

    At the height of popularity, Jesus makes hard statements that thin the crowds. He says many of his disciples didn't really believe. And they fell away. What's the difference between the faith that saves and the kind of faith that doesn't? This story reveals that truth.

    I’m sure that there are many of us here who have known or encountered people who were strong Christians from everything we could tell, but who have, for one reason or another, fallen away from the faith. They no longer claim to believe, they do not practice what Christ taught, they no longer ...read more

  • Dealing Wisely With Unbelief & Opposition Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 10, 2021
     | 3,963 views

    If we stand for Jesus, we will inevitably face the same kind of opposition that He did. How do we respond? His example gives us a clue as he faces both the unbelief of his own family, and the deadly opposition of israel's leaders.

    It’s been more than 20 years ago now since I initiated a lawsuit in the name of the church against the Washoe County School District. As a few of you know, and even fewer of you probably remember, it was about the matter of Equal Access—equal access to public school facilities for churches and ...read more

  • One Priest, One Sacrifice, Once For All Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 14, 2021
     | 2,963 views

    Do we really need multiple mortal human priest to grant us access to God? What about those churches that claim we do? Hebrews 7:18-28 provides us with a definitive answer.

    Have any of you gotten any unwanted phone calls this week? Yes, I assume all of you have! Have any of you gotten any scam calls this week? Yes, those things have become as daily an experience as most any other part of our lives. Have you gotten the one from someone who sounds like they’re ...read more

  • How To Make Right Choices About Spiritual Issues Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 16, 2021
     | 3,031 views

    Jesus obviously provided a wisdom which is from above about how people would know the truth, and how they should seek the truth. Much of that is provided in John 7.

    Back when I was in college I was involved with Campus Crusade for Christ. And I think it was my senior year when CCC invited a staff member by the name of Dick Day to come and speak on Love, Sex and Marriage. And Campus Crusade had a very flashy sort of ministry. They advertised that a special ...read more

  • To Die For? Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 17, 2021
     | 1,930 views

    What is it that Christians are to be willing to die for? That's always a tough question, but Jesus answers it with no hesitation in John 15.

    Early this past week I had a both disturbing and thought-provoking conversation with a young lady. She told me about an experience she had had at a significant social event recently. She had run into to a couple who were old friends at this social event, and they had formerly been her spiritual ...read more

  • The World, The Test & The Testimony Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 17, 2021
     | 2,609 views

    How are we to relate to the world around us? How will the world relate to us? All of these are critical truths Jesus wants His disciples to understand.

    I was listening to radio one afternoon recently when I heard story of a young woman in Albania who had come to faith in Christ and was a joyful, radiant Christian, witnessing to her friends about what she had found in Jesus. Then I listened with great sadness & shock to hear that this vibrant ...read more

  • What Kind Of Faith Saves? Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 27, 2021
     | 2,760 views

    Most of us know people who say they believe in Christ, and yet there is nothing about their lives that distinguishes from non-Christians otherwise? So what kind of faith actually saves?

    What kind of faith saves? It’s an important question. It’s a critical question because we all know many people who say they believe in Jesus. But there’s virtually nothing in their lives that sets them out as any different from the non-Christian who lives next door. They neither attend church, ...read more
