How Great Is Our God Series

Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jan 5, 2012

As in many other places in the Bible, Isaiah 40 gives us a glimpse into God's greatness. He is strong as iron and tender as a shepherd (10-11). Adjectives like enormous and wise fall so short when we consider His creation and counsel (12-13). Not only tha

It's not a question, it's a statement. I probably should add an exclamation point: How Great is Our God! As in many other places in the Bible, Isaiah 40 gives us a glimpse into God's greatness. He is strong as iron and tender as a shepherd (10-11). Adjectives like enormous and wise fall so short ...read more

Connected, Like It Or Not

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 9, 2009

Baptist Heritage Sunday: broad as we are, we can stay together if we live out our understanding of soul competence and if we focus on missions and evangelism.

I want to introduce you to the least exclusive club in the world. A club so open that anybody can get in, whether they qualify or not, although the club says it has high standards for membership.

Understanding Our Father

Contributed by Dove Inspirations on Aug 9, 2021

Everybody likes to be kind of understood. We may not understand all, but we can start somewhere.

Understanding our FATHER 1 John 1:5 Of course, it is impossible to understand The MOST HIGH. One word usually describes HIM in modern times, good.

God's Privileged Children Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Dec 17, 2012

Since God has shown us such great love in dying for us & saving us, we should respond with love for Him. As we do, our Father transforms us into the children He would have us be. Are you the Christian God would have you be?

1 JOHN 3: 1-3 [LIFE, LIGHT & LOVE SERIES] GOD'S PRIVILEGED CHILDREN [Romans 8:14-18] One of the great blessings about being a pastor is the opportunity to rejoice with the parents when a NEW BABY IS BORN.

Our Journey With God #1

Contributed by Donny Tatimu on Oct 20, 2002

John Bunyan, in his “Pilgrim’s Progress”, has made many people realized that Christianity is not just a religion, it’s more than a religion, it’s a way of life, or maybe in this case I would like to say, it is someone’s journey with God and to God’s heart

Like A Tree

Contributed by Timothy Darling on Oct 23, 2008

Your alignment with God’s word will determine where you stand (sit, and walk) on any issue. Advice from Scripture is better than advice from anybody else.

Like a Tree Psalm 1 Why do some people have all the luck? I understand that luck is a fabricated force that many people use to explain how apparently random forces fall one way instead of another. I’m not saying that luck exists. I am simply pointing out that many people, us included, sometimes ...read more

Opening Our Eyes To God’s Glory

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Feb 25, 2017

The transfiguration reveals that Jesus is powerful (he is God!), primary (he must come first), personable (he cares about us), and passionate (he desires all to be saved). God wants us, like the disciples present, to "listen to him!"

Matthew 17:1-9 Opening Our Eyes to God’s Glory Do you ever get the sense that you take God for granted? Some of us grew up in homes where going to Sunday worship was expected of us. We grew up always knowing the love of God from an early age. And perhaps we’re spoiled a little. We don’t remember ...read more

A Heart Like His Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Sep 13, 2010

God's desire is for us to be conformed to His Son. This is our goal in life. Transformation takes place when we CHOOSE it and when we COOPERATE with God for it. It is intentional and spiritual.

Actions That God Does Lesson 2 Series

God does not have actual physical instruments or characteristics, but performs the functions that describe Him.

A. INTRODUCTION: REMEMBER 1. Reverse – don’t say God does the same actions as humans. No! God is Person. We are made in His image: a. Image – internal identification. b.

What Is The Kingdom Like?

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021

Beyond the self-denial of following Christ, beyond the daily discipline, beyond the cross to be carried, lies the most precious thing, a thing of supreme and unsurpassed beauty: life in the Kingdom, under God and for God and with God!

When you open the gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark and Luke, it seems that more often that not, Jesus is speaking in some parable. With colourful language, Jesus places things “side by side,” comparing and contrasting, and drawing out from the picture he paints some truth or teaching. Sometimes the ...read more
