     | 7,216 views

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Feb 7, 2021
     | 4,011 views

    We face trying times. This is no time to be afraid or be ashamed. But we cannot do this in ourselves. We need to see a vision of God.

There are only three Gospel texts which tell about the Transfiguration, so it becomes a challenge to repeat a story we have heard so many times. The accounts are quite similar. Luke adds ...read more

    There's Nothing Like A Mother's Love

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 3, 2021
     | 2,654 views

    In the New Testament we have a wonderful picture that Jesus would tend to people much like a mother hen would tend to her young (Luke 13:34). Comfort involves compassion, encouragement and sympathy.

    THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE Text: Isaiah 66:13 Isaiah 66:13  As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you; you shall be comforted in Jerusalem. A young, awkward boy grew up in southern California, plagued by a learning disability that in later ...read more

     | 2,864 views

    Every believer ought to be a philanthropist in that they seek the welfare of those around them. That is not to say that we support ungodly behavior, but that we seek to assist those in need.

    An Offering Given in Purity Matthew 6: 1-4 Today we begin a new chapter in our study of the Sermon on the Mount, but it is just a continuation of what we have studied in the past. We are still dealing with the message Jesus preached to the multitudes. His focus has shifted somewhat, but He ...read more
