The Woman At The Well

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Sep 2, 2019

A woman who was despised by the Jews and the Samaritans finds living water at the well on a hot afternoon. And she becomes an evangelist for the Lord. Intriguing and example-setting yet today for all of us.

Today, let’s talk about another woman who was saved by the power of Jesus Christ; a woman we have all referred to as “The Woman at the Well.” We find her story in the 4th chapter of the book of JOHN. As we read the Gospels, we see that Jesus’ approach to proclaiming the Good News was decidedly ...read more

Transformed In Christ Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 11, 2019

The letter to Titus, although written to the young pastor, has much to say to the church and individual believers. Following our transformation in Christ, we have an obligation to live in a way that pleases Him and reveals His grace before others.

Transformed in Christ Titus 3: 1-7 Although Paul’s letter to Titus was brief in comparison to some of the other letters he had written, the Apostle shared much with the young pastor.

A Life Worth Living

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 14, 2019

Colossians 1:9-14 A Life Worth Living Do you ever wonder if your life has amounted to much?

The Resolve Of The Remnant

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Jul 28, 2019

Despite greater privileges and blessings from God, many of us struggle to honor God and remain faithful to Him. We seem to take His Grace for granted. There will come a time when we will be held accountable to Him for our choices, and only a remnant who stay faithful until the end will be saved.

Ezekiel 5 Remember in Chapter 4, God had Ezekiel draw the town out on paper and lay siege against it to show the people they would be destroyed. He then had Ezekiel put an iron skillet between himself and the town to show he was not going to look upon the town. He then had Ezekiel lay on his side ...read more

"Finding Your Identity"

Contributed by David Henderson on Aug 28, 2018

All of us are called to serve God full time. I also came to the understanding that serving him as my vocation, as my job, was indeed what he wanted from me. It is God’s desire that every believer will serve him full-time-nothing more-nothing less.

“Finding Your Identity” 1st Peter 2:5-10 I remember God speaking to me about entering the ministry when I was 11 years old. I was actively attending church and God had placed a call on my life. Sometimes it is hard to describe to someone who has not received that call but I have never doubted it. ...read more

A Confrontation About Resurrection Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 20, 2018
