The Lord Is My Shepherd Series

Contributed by J.d. Tutell on Jan 3, 2011

The relationship of the shepherd and the sheep is much deeper than many of us realize.

It’s interesting that the 23rd Psalm is one of the most loved and familiar passages in the Bible and yet so many people live their lives as if the version that I just read is true rather than the one in the Bible. We can live with such a wonderful sense of denial about the things of God and ...read more

Jesus Is Lord Of The Sabbath

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Aug 24, 2013

The analysis of Jesus as lord of the Sabbath as set forth in Luke 6:1-5 shows us Jesus' understanding of his own identity.

Working With The Lord's Help Series

Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 15, 2013

It should never surprise us when we do the Lord's work and people react with anger, ridicule, and rejection. Nehemiah gives us a great example of how we need to respond when the enemies of God oppose His work.

In this lesson, I would like to look at the leadership of Nehemiah through the hardship and opposition that the people went through. They had opposition from outside and discouragement from inside, yet they got the job done. It should never surprise us when we do the Lord's work and people react ...read more
