Sermon On Solitary Moments

A cosmic experience is regarded as a state of consciousness that can involve a special sense of connection to the universe.

Too Big For Us To Understand

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 7, 2025

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 14, 2025

Jonah had more pity for the plant that gave him a little shade than for the people of Nineveh who had repented and thereby were saved from God’s wrath and judgement. May we learn to value people over things and traditions and love them like Jesus did.

Go! And Be Transformed Through Prayer Series

Go! And Be Transformed Through Prayer Introduction C.S. Lewis once said, “I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God. It changes me.” Prayer is one of the greatest ...read more

Contributed by Eric Hanson on Feb 29, 2024

The Pharisees and the rabbinical school taught that when the Messiah came, he would do certain miracles that nobody had ever done before. In this sermon, you will see that Jesus fulfilled this template perfectly, but was rejected by the Sanhedrin anyway.
