The Mountain Top Experience Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 25, 2020

Why did Jesus lead Peter, James and John up on the Mountain? And why would God make it so they could see Moses and Elijah speaking with Christ that day?

The story in our text today is recorded in Matthew, Mark and Luke and I believe it’s the source of the phrase “A Mountain Top Experience.

The Sacrifices God Is Pleased With Series

Contributed by Isaiah Banjo on Nov 30, 2020

And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices, God is pleased. (NIV) Hebrews 13:15-16 Quite a lot to identify in this scripture. 1. The ...read more

Contributed by J. Yeargin on Mar 7, 2017

Our scriptures are unique in that Christ chose 3 of the 12 disciples to follow Him “into an high mountain apart.” One can only wonder why Jesus chose only 3…

When my wife and I travel we usually take our Garmen Navigation and sit it on the dash of our car. We try not to get lost, but it happens… and it’s ...read more
