    David & Goliath - The Battle Is The Lord's Series

    based on 145 ratings
     | 83,335 views

    God is the one who saves, not by sword or spear, but by his power, by his word proclaimed in the gospel, by his Spirit who fills each one of us just as he filled David.

    I guess this would be one of the best known, if not THE best known story in the Bible. In fact it’s so well known that David has become a metaphor for the victorious underdog. He’s the archetypal cutter down of tall poppies. The one who can overcome the greatest odds to win through to victory. But ...read more

    We need to understand: 1. People are eternally lost withhout Jesus Christ. 2. Lost people matter to God. 3. Lost people should matter to us.

    Calvin Coolidge was vice president of the United States between 1921-1923, under President Warren Harding. He was not a very active vice president, but he took great pleasure in presiding over the Senate. One day, as he was presiding, one senator angrily told another to go “straight to hell.” ...read more

    Coping With Death - With Or Without Jesus

    Contributed by Charles Degner on May 2, 2003
    based on 21 ratings
     | 3,615 views

    What would it be like to face death without Jesus? Because Jesus lives, we won’t have to find out!

    How do you cope with the idea of death without the resurrection? Walt Disney made a stab at it in the cartoon classic, “The Lion King.” The little lion’s father died. But you don’t have to be afraid. You don’t have to be sad. Because after all, it’s all about the “circle of life.” Life and ...read more

    based on 141 ratings
     | 19,817 views

    In a Church where diversity is the norm, our unity is of vital importance. Let’s remember to emphasise the centrality of Christ as Lord and of the saving power of the gospel; and the need to look to Christ rather than to human wisdom to determine how to l

    I guess most people would say that we’ve come a long way in the past 2000 years. We’re far better educated. We’re much more sophisticated. We know a whole lot more about the world we live in, the universe around us, the microscopic world within. We have the benefit of 2000 years of thinking, of ...read more

    Why love is so crucial in our Christian walk and use reflections of Memorial Day to describe that.

    The Beatles song, Love, love, love is all you need was a popular song. Young people of that time echoed that sentiment in their actions and in how they lived their lives. They thought this was a new concept that their parents just wouldn’t or couldn’t get. But the concept was far older than the ...read more

     | 6,183 views

    If Abel’s sacrifice was simply offering God his best, then Jesus Christ died for nothing except as a good example. Then we must agree with the world in saying that there are many sincere ways to God. Many people are sincere, but are sincerely wrong

    Why must it be only through the Blood that we can be saved? Genesis 4:1-12 We are told today that mankind is naturally good at heart. What we need to fix is the environment; through our social policies, our education, and our laws. The Bible clearly tells us this is not the case. Mankind is ...read more

    based on 334 ratings
     | 88,282 views

    When Peter was in prison, awaiting what appeared to be a sure execution, the church prayed without ceasing for him and Peter was set free by an angel of the Lord. Powerful things happen the church prays.

    In the text, we find something taking place that seems to be missing in many churches today – that is church folk praying for church folk. In this particular case, a church member in trouble. The Apostle Peter is on death roll and all petitions to commute his sentence have been exhausted. ...read more
