Sanctified Silence Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

Silence has the advantage of being a two way street. By silence we speak to God, and also allow Him to speak to us. Silence is both saying something, and listening to something being said.

You can learn in silence what sound can never teach you. Howard Thurman tells of one of his University students who was a deep sea diver. He wrote of his experience of being on the bottom of the ocean. The water was clear and he was in the midst of a coral rock garden. He sat down to look around. ...read more

The Gog/Magog Prophecy Revealed

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 14, 2022

Who is this Gog and Magog Ezekiel tells us about? And when will they invade Israel? The answer lies in Scripture. But we must be careful not to assume anything by our own understanding. We need God to show us the truth of this prophecy. Which I believe He has done today.

Ever since Russia made its invasion of the Ukraine, pastors, preachers and evangelists all over the world have been quick to get on their proverbial "soap box" and claim that this is the fulfillment of the prophecy found in Ezekiel 38. And for a time, I also believed this was the prophecy ...read more

Multi Ethnic Bereavement

Contributed by Davon Huss on Apr 30, 2017

I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Christ is the only thing that can bring true and lasting comfort. Jesus said, “Blessed are those that mourn, for they ...read more

Lesson 2 : Truncated History Series

Contributed by Rolland Bouchard on Dec 10, 2009

A very truncated look at the history of christianity. This message presupposes that many people believe restoration history bypasses the reformation and catholicism. However, it is unhealthy to not acknowlege our past. Instead we ought to embrace it.

HISTORY: Very, Very Truncated. “In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.” Hebrews 1:1 In trying to better ...read more

And no, He wasn’t born in the year 1 A.D. The Bible tells us that Herod the Great ruled ...read more
