    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,667 views

    Satan’s onslaught against the Word of God is constant. He is always twisting and manipulating, trying to get us to doubt what the Lord has said. In addition to attacking the Word, the devil will bombard us with testing and trials.

    Every temptation is a kind of test . . . from the Evil One. A temptation is a trial posed by Satan, with the wicked hope that we will fail. - Philip Ryken(1) Satan’s onslaught against the Word of God is constant. He’s always twisting and manipulating, trying to get us to doubt what the Lord’s ...read more

    In today's culture, the media, academics, liberal theologians all work to confuse an understanding fo the gospel. The Bible on the other hand is extremely clear as to the terms of the gospel - salvation through faith in the sacrificial death of Jesus Chri

    MAKING THE GOSPEL CLEAR This Sunday we are observing what is often called “Palm Sunday.” This name comes from the fact that on the Sunday of the “passion week” Jesus entered into Jerusalem under a cacophony of cheers and praise. In Luke 19, the Bible recounts the story ...read more

    If John the Baptist was on social media, what would he post? What would he share about himself? He might truly resonate with the song by Casting Crowns - "Nobody, Somebody, Everybody."

    I’m not very good at social media, but you probably already know that if you’re on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. I don’t post very often - except to give away bread. When I do, I don’t take very good pictures - in fact I sometimes re-do old pictures - especially of bread. I suppose in some ...read more

     | 5,664 views

    The story of Ruth is a story of a woman whose life has spun out of control. Does she look to society for help? Does she use her sexuality to manipulate others to help? Or does she call on her redeemer?

    Have you ever noticed that so many of the Calls to Worship that we hear in church talk about joy? Ps 66: “Shout with joy to God, all the earth! Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious!” Ps 100 “Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him ...read more

    Jacob’s family life is almost continual strife. As great Jacob became, he will see him transform before our eyes in the weeks to come. From a scheming manipulator to a humbled man, Jacob transforms by the grace of God.

    We continue our series, My Crazy Family, only it is the Tailgate edition. It gets even crazier today. Great things can come from broken families. Jacob is a complex character – he’s truly a piece of work. For much of his life, this much was true of Jacob – Jacob always put Jacob first in every area ...read more

    Society hammers into our brains the idea that success is to be measured with goods. The media claims that he who dies with the most toys wins. And we all want not only the best but the latest toys. We all want to win.

    A Success Story All humans, men and women, fall in three categories, in relationship to being successful. Those who are successful, those who aren’t successful and those who are on their way to being successful. If we were to subdivide them even further we could mention those who are on their way ...read more

    The recent publishing of a 4th century papyrus fragment where Jesus is purported to say He had a wife will continue to be vetted for months in the media. Christians must be informed and have a strong defense of the authority of the Word of God.

    Many times we seek to understand and manipulate God by our human ideas. We need to get rid of our preconceptions about what God is doing in our lives and let Him direct how we think and pray.
