    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023
     | 1,194 views

    God sees the bigger picture of our lives, while we have a limited view. We have dreams of doing things to better ourselves, but our dreams are limited, while God's dreams for us are must greater.

    What Prayer Isn't

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 11, 2023
     | 1,621 views

    Even though we pray, we may wonder at times: “Why do I pray? What does it accomplish?” Along the way, we may pick up some misperceptions. I want to talk about what prayer isn’t.

    The widow of the parable was pretty frustrated. In the Army, if soldiers feel they’ve been treated unfairly, they have several options: They can use their chain-of-command, see the Chaplain, contact Equal Opportunity, call the Inspector General’s office, or even write their Senator. We have the ...read more

    Do not let discontentment rob you of enjoying and being grateful for what you have.

    This time we see the fertile, good soil as the Sower broadcast his seed. This is what everyone wants. Also we see the obligations of sowers, the care of the seed, and how this relates to the gospel. We must never handle the bible deceitfully.

    What The Bible Teaches About Prayer

     | 173 views

    During the days of the apostle Paul, there were no Bible colleges and seminaries as we have today to train young ministers as we have.

    Illus: When a young man felt God was calling him into the ministry, we take it for granted that if he can, he will go to Bible college and seminary and get all the training that is available. But those who start late in life into the ministry they are not able to do this because they already have ...read more
