One day, after the bird let out a string of expletives, the man, in a fit of anger grabbed the bird and threw him into ...read more

    Contrasting Koheleth and Paul in the later season of their lives: one blames the young, the other gathers them; one mourns broken things, the other invests in ideas; one is anxious, the other trusts God for every need.

    This past weekend, as a part of our brief getaway, my wife and I spent two nights in an old farmhouse. The farmhouse dated from 1704 and was partly furnished with antiques. Now my wife loves antiques; I guess that’s why she puts up with me. So we took the tour of the house, especially the parlor ...read more

    Getting The Sabbath Right Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Jan 29, 2021
     | 3,231 views

    Practicing the Sabbath religiously is still something that is common in certain faith families, but I think mostly we ignore the idea. Getting the Sabbath right is essential for our mental, spiritual, and physical well being.

    Getting the Sabbath Right     Luke 6:1-11 Introduction As a young Christian I was taught that all of the Ten Commands had been repeated and taught by Jesus - except one. Keeping the Sabbath day holy. When I preached out in the country during my Bible college days I ...read more

    Searching For The Faithful

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 30, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,730 views

    God is searching for the faithful, as He wants to show Himself strong on their behalf. He is seeking those who realize that God is bigger than man’s limited wisdom; and He is seeking those who walk in obedience to His commands.

    George Muller said, “Faith does not operate in the realm of the possible. There is no glory for God in that which is humanly possible. Faith begins where man’s power ends.” I’ve entitled our message for this morning, “Searching for the Faithful,” and it’s based on a verse often used in Scripture ...read more

     | 25,634 views

    Ravi Zacharias’ book "Jesus Among other Gods" gave the idea for this Easter sermon. It looks at four gardens, Eden, the desert, Gethsemene, and the garden where the tomb was and relates each garden to a time in our lives.

She is telling me some things that she would like to do with the flowers, and I have been telling her some things I ...read more
