     | 3,024 views

    God wants us to be faithful to him in words and actions, even in difficult situations. So, what does it take to persevere in the way of Jesus?

    Of Christians put to death for their faith in the second century, perhaps no account is as striking as the story of Polycarp.

    In order to make an impact for Christ, believers need to be out there serving the Lord with all our heart through the gifts, talents and skills He has given us.

Regardless of where we are in life, we are encouraged to make the best use of our time for Jesus, utilizing the skills, talents, resources, and spiritual gifts He has given us.

    Why The Law Cannot Fix Us Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 11, 2020
     | 3,259 views

    Although ignorance is a major problem in the Christian world, our biggest issue involves being rightly related to God. Many, sadly, look to law-keeping as the way to know God or receive His forgiveness. This simply will not work; we need regeneration, the work of the Holy Spirit within us.

    Why the Law Cannot Fix Us (Romans 7:1-25) 1. Happy Mother’s Day to all our moms. Moms come with all sorts of personalities and approaches toward parenting. A mother is trying to get her son to eat carrots. “Carrots are good for your eyes,” she says. “How do you know?” the boy asks. The mother ...read more

    How do we know the right thing to do? We get lots of advice from family, friends, media, you name it. But what direction do we truly trust to guide us into right thinking and right behaviors? Jesus shows us the way in the Sermon on the Mount.

    Hell - The Unpleasant Reality

     | 1,274 views

    The story of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:19-31 offers the best and clearest picture into the nature of hell. Because these words come from our Lord Jesus, we must treat them with utmost respect. We see the cry of rich man from hell to heaven.

    The Bible warns us of two eternities. One is impressive and all like to hear about it. But the other is horrifying and seldom wants to believe it. They are heaven and hell. Is hell real? There can be two answers. One is from man and the other is from God. What I think about hell neither make a ...read more
