Lord, Teach Us To Pray Series

Contributed by Chris Anderson on Mar 10, 2023

The disciples spent an amazing amount of time with Jesus and would have had many opportunities for them to ask him to teach them something. And of all the amazing things they could have asked Jesus to teach them, only one thing is recorded: “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1).

Imagine with me for a moment that you’re one of Jesus’ disciples. You’ve been following him around for a little while now and you’ve seen him do some pretty incredible things…you’ve seen him heal crippled people, you’ve seen him cast out demons, you even saw him speak life into a dead guy. You’ve ...read more

What's In A Crumb?

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Mar 29, 2023

1 John 3:8, it tells us, "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested". Now when you read John's gospel in the first chapter it tells us very clearly, "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. And nothing was created without him". ...read more

In Part 3 of this series we examine what it will take to have a joy that is full. This is the joy that God desires for us to have - but do we really want it bad enough to do what it takes to get it?

Living In The Vine

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Jun 14, 2022

Jesus is the Vine, we are the branches. The Father the Gardener, the vinedresser. Everything God does is to enhance our abiding and fruitfulness. With each trimming, we become more like Christ, for God’s glory and for the blessing of others. For the blessing of the world around us.

Christ often used illustrations for us when explaining spiritual truths. “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.” “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Today, in John 15:1-11 we’re looking at the grapevine as ...read more

Tongues Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 30, 2024

This message addresses the eighth gift of the Holy Spirit mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12:10: the supernatural enablement to give a message in an unlearned foreign language. In Scripture, tongues is the ability to speak in languages unknown to the speaker.

How much devastation and destruction has been wrought because believer's think nothing of listening passively to slanderous accusations against their spiritual leaders? The Apostle Paul was a victim of this as well.
