Christian Citizenship Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 29, 2021

Your Heavenly Father Series

Contributed by Dr. Lewis W. Gregory on Jun 17, 2020

Father's day is a time to remember and recognize the importance of a father. However, even the best father cannot give you all you need as a person. But when God, the perfect father becomes your Father, all that changes. Your Heavenly Father will give you the royal treatment.

Work Of Thy Hands

Contributed by Paul Richard on Jun 30, 2020

Work exists before man. The creation of man and other things were the handiwork of God and they were good. What a pity! Today’s man has a wrong perception about work for the sake of instant reward, personal gain or interest.

I. In general term, work is an activity, task, duty, responsibility or assignment. When something is created, done or made, work is said to have taken place (Genesis 1:11, Genesis 1:21, Genesis 1:25-27). Work is done to achieve a particular outcome or result which oftentimes is either positive or ...read more

Fourteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time , Year A; 14th Sunday, Cycle A-- Different Yokes For Different Folks

Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 13, 2020

It is an act not of juggling balls on a stage, but of carrying eggs from a barn.

A yoke is a wooden frame fitted on working animals to evenly balance the load on each individual animal and allow them to work as a team. Jesus wears the yoke and we are yoked to him.

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 14, 2020

Giving God Your Worst

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 21, 2020

The Precious.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 3, 2021

God’s promises weighed on the balance scales In your mind’s eye, please see a set of balance scales. Balance scales are the type we see the blind lady of justice holding, where a heavier weight tilts in that direction but even weight balances out perfectly.

The Precious. Jeremiah 15:19 The prophet Jeremiah faced rebuke, mockery and loneliness and stood transparent before God and lifted his state of depression to the Lord.

Not Ashamed Of The Gospel

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Oct 15, 2021

Paul tells Timothy not to be ashamed of the gospel. Christians today can also face that temptation. Paul then gives some solid arguments why Timothy shouldn't be ashamed of the gospel, and they help us too!

‘So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord’ Today we’re starting a new four-week series on 2 Timothy. I’m looking forward to this short series! Over the years I’ve studied a number of the New Testament letters but I’ve never really studied 2 Timothy. I’m interested to find out what ...read more
