    Contributed by James Wallace on May 19, 2022
     | 2,948 views

    If you really love Jesus, then what? How will you show it? Do you show it? Jesus had specific answers for us in John 21.

    Well, finally, some of you must be thinking, we come to the end of the Gospel of John. And I must say, personally, along with others who have thoroughly studied this book, that it is very likely the most profound book I have ever preached through. And that’s because it’s all about the most ...read more

    The Great Tribulation

    Contributed by Larry Wolfe on Jul 2, 2009
     | 9,198 views

    A unique but Biblical/Historical description of the Great Tribulation

    The Great Tribulation While this title has been popularized during the past century and a half by the pre-tribulation rapture theory, which also tagged it with the traditional 3-1/2 year time period, the fact of the matter remains, the Bible does not explicitly indicate an exact length of time ...read more

    Martyrdom of John the Baptist August 29, 2011 Testimony of the Saints Popular culture almost always gets everything wrong. Thus today’s celebration, which in the pre-Vatican II liturgy was a feast, not a memorial, is totally misinterpreted by pop culture. In the view of the secular world, ...read more

    Counted Worthy To Suffer Shame

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Oct 12, 2022
     | 1,644 views

    We must boldly proclaim Jesus even if we suffer for it. And when we do suffer, we need to take joy that the Lord has counted us worthy to suffer for Him.

    Counted Worthy to Suffer Shame Acts 5:33-42 As we continue our study in the Book of Acts, let us review some things we have already learned. First of all we remember that the mission of the church is to continue what Jesus began to do and teach (Acts 1:1). Acts 1:8 defines the outward spiral of ...read more

    Who Claims Our Devotion? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 18, 2020
     | 1,775 views

    Our devotion is not to a book, not even to a church building, and not even to our fellow parishioners. We derive our identity as Catholics from our devotion to the lord of the Sabbath, the lord of our lives, Our Lord, Jesus the Christ.

    Feast of St. Agnes 2020 Tuesday of 2nd week in Course For generations after the Hebrews settled in the Holy Land, they acknowledged only God, the Lord, as their leader. But in the time of the prophet-priest Samuel, these tribes began to worry him about a king. The whole point of the covenant God ...read more

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 31, 2020
     | 2,736 views

    This is the first in a series on Mark's account of the life and ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ, focusing on the background, theme, purpose, and testimony of those who were changed by the message and compassion of Jesus, both then and now.

    The Early Church Fathers (A.D. 100-400) affirm that John Mark, first introduced in the book of Acts as a traveling companion of the Apostle Paul and his associate Barnabas, was the author of the Gospel that bears his name. Acts also notes that Mark, young and immature, abruptly left Paul and ...read more
