Genesis Chapter Twenty-Four Series

The Prodigal's Father Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Fathers need some encouragement. There are two things I see in the parable of the Prodigal that can be an encouragement to fathers, for these two things make it clear that fatherhood is hard, but that there is hope. The two things I see here are the intricacy and the intimacy of fatherhood

What Do You See? God Is Getting Ready!

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Mar 4, 2020

It is amazing what we cannot see? What do you see? God is teaching Jeremiah a lesson on vision casting? I see a rod of a almond tree... There is a powerful hidden lesson here. Let us see clearly.

Zechariah’s Fourth Vision: Messiah The Qualifier Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 11, 2022

Do you want to enjoy intimacy with God and operate in His authority? In Zechariah 3 we are given two keys for that to happen. Additionally, it is only possible through Messiah Jesus seen here as Servant, the Branch, and the Chief Cornerstone.

Today we return to our study of Zechariah. Zechariah, along with a faithful remnant, have returned from Babylonian captivity to Jerusalem. They are rebuilding the temple along with Ezra and restoring worship of the Lord in their homeland. For 70 years the nation has been living in Babylon as ...read more

Layers Of An Onion

Contributed by Jerry Smith on Jun 28, 2021

I was originally drawn to this passage because of this conversation between Jesus and Peter. I wanted to understand the deeper meaning of what was being said here. I have learned that and much more. I found four layers to the onion.

Have any of you tried a fried blooming onion? They taste great. If you haven’t had one - they cut open a sweet Vidalia onion and dip it in batter and deep fry it and all the layers spread out. You are probably wondering why I am talking about onions and making everyone hungry; it is because onions ...read more

Where Sin Abounded, Grace Abounded Much More

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 17, 2021

Here we are told that sin entered into the world when Adam and Eve chose to disobey God's commandment. So, when they sinned, they caused a change in this world that affects every one of their descendants, including you and me.

Remember Lot's Wife

Contributed by Grant Adams on Mar 19, 2021

These scriptures refer to the second coming of Jesus Christ. Sooner than most of us believe, Christ will return to catch his bride away. A warning is found here to those who are not prepared to stand before the judgment seat of God.

If we are to have a part in God's Kingdom, if we expect to be saved from the judgment of God, we must be prepared. To expect heaven to be our home one day, doesn't come by chance. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people. John 14. There will be no time for preparation at the end of ...read more

This Day You Will Be With Me In Paradise Series

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Mar 29, 2021

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Jul 30, 2018

If these people, who were so instrumental in establishing our nation, were here to say & do these things in our country today, they'd be considered right-wing radicals, & a threat to our nation.

Jerusalem Alone Series

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Jan 8, 2019

The story of a 12 year-old boy left behind in Jerusalem by his parents? Sound familiar? Almost sounds like a Christmas classic movie! Not exactly. This is the story of the Son of God, knowing who he was and why he was here.

As I read through the account from Luke 2 which you heard this morning of how Jesus was left behind by his parents in Jerusalem, I couldn’t help but think of what has become classic Christmas movie, “Home Alone.” If you’re not familiar with the movie, it’s about a boy around the age of 10-12 ...read more

Contributed by Margaret Olubiyi on Oct 30, 2018

What is your reason for being here? What do you believe is God's purpose for your life? I believe like me, that is the question most of us have asked ourselves at one time or the other.

I am here to inform you that you and I are on this earth to serve the Lord God, His church and the world at large. God created man in His image and for fellowship as we see in the book of Genesis 2 through 4 until the enemy came in and destroyed that beautiful fellowship God had with our first ...read more

It Dawned On Me

Contributed by Steve Wilson on Mar 16, 2016

Have you ever thought what it might have been like for the disciples to experience the death of the One they gave up everything to follow? Try to visualize one of those disciples coming to meet with us here on Resurrection Day.

Introduction Read Luke 24:1-9 Easter! What a glorious day for Christians. It means everything to us. In fact we worship on the first day of the week, Sunday, every week because Jesus came out of the tomb on that day. I hope none of us takes for granted what Christ’s resurrection means.
