    Contributed by Mike Lewis on Mar 26, 2024
     | 1,456 views

    Two Revealing Prayers Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 28, 2022

     | 4,558 views

    This passage records two prayers, in which are shown two kinds of hearts, whose contrast is not only seen in the way they make their requests, but also in the way they approach God. Some people trust in themselves; others trust in God.

    This evening’s sermon is entitled “Two Revealing Prayers,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector.” Darrell Bock, in The NIV Application Commentary, says, “This parable is really the parable of the two prayers. In those prayers appear two ...read more

    Christian atheists talk about being good without God. How can we be good with God?

    Can we really be good without God? I suppose to really answer that question we should examine what good means.Most people would say they are good people. They have never robbed a bank, stolen something from a store,or beaten a helpless person. They have paid their bills on time and obeyed the laws ...read more

    Having A Contrite Heart

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Oct 23, 2025
     | 201 views

    The parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector show us the importance of having a contrite heart that is aware of one's own sinfulness and lives in appreciation of God's mercy.

    ONE OF THE CHURCH’S ANCIENT LITURGIES IS WHEN THE PRIEST STARTED MASS WITH THE PRAYER “LORD, YOU WERE SENT TO HEAL THE CONTRITE OF HEART.” THE RESPONSE OF THE PEOPLE WAS TO SAY, “LORD, HAVE MERCY.” WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO HAVE A CONTRITE HEART AND TO SEEK GOD’S MERCY?

I fast twice a week, and I pay tithes on my whole income.' Jesus indicates ...read more
