    How do you do "church"? Is it about going to a building and singing songs, praying prayers and listening to a sermon... or is there something more to it than that?

He held out his palm and asked for an alm, and this is what Peter did say: "Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have give I thee. In ...read more

    INTRO In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of ...read more

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 20, 2026
    based on 1 rating
     | 218 views

    John 3:16 reveals a love that gives before we act, inviting weary believers to stop striving, receive grace, and rest in God.

    Have you ever wondered why you don’t often hear sermons preached on John 3:16? I don’t mean references to it. I don’t mean quoting it in passing. I mean a full sermon—sitting with it, staying with it, letting it speak. At first, that sounds strange. Because John 3:16 is everywhere. Many of us ...read more

    How To Give A Defense For Your Hope

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 10, 2013
     | 5,866 views

    We're supposed to be prepared to give a defense for the hope that is within us. But how are we to go about that? Using Paul's defense in Acts 26 we'll lay the ground work for sharing your hope with others.

    In Acts 26:1-23, the apostle Paul is standing before King Agrippa and makes a compelling defense for the hope that was in him (Acts 26:1 ESV, 21:6; 1 Peter 3:15). As we read his defense (or sermon if you will,) we’ll learn some valuable tips that will help us all in presenting a defense for ...read more
