Christ And The Hungry Multitude Series

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 11, 2025

There were 5000 men not including women and children. God not only wanted to meet their spiritual needs, but the physical needs as well. God has a desire to meet our needs.

Christ’s attitude toward the multitudes: sets before us the principles of all true missionary work. The multitude followed because of miracles, but he was anxious to satisfy their need, not entertain them with wonders. He knew they were hungry. Typical. I. They Failed to See Him as ...read more

An Evening Of Sin

Why David Is So Important Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 18, 2024

David is a hugely important figure in the Bible. But if we're going to learn from him we need to have an understanding of why he is so important.

Part 1: Is David important? Over the next few months, we’re going to have eight studies on David, the shepherd who became king. We could easily give David much more time than that – he’s such an important person in the Bible, but we can’t fit in more than eight studies between now and December ...read more

The Star and Stars of Christmas is a series of messages for Advent. Using the idea of a play on a stage. Each message will look at different characters in the Christmas story. The introduction takes a critical look at how many in our society are portrayed as celebrities—bigger than life.

It is amazing how understanding a person and a historical event gives a different way of looking at history. I enjoy reality fiction, especially in movies. For example, “The Man Who Invented Christmas” appears to be a fantasy movie. It is reality fiction. The story tells how Charles Dickens ...read more

The weak strong man. Judges 15:18-20 06/29/05 After Samson had slain 1000 Philistines, he was about to die of thirst.
