Ezekiel And The Storm Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

If you were asked to describe God, how would you? For many people, God is a mystery. Yet, I want to take us back in time to ancient Iraq where Ezekiel’s tells of a vision of a great God. The ancient rabbis of ancient of Israel did not want anyone under the age of 30 reading Ezekiel’s prophecy.

These encounters are called visitations and they are almost always following a crisis of some kind. There’s a crisis, an extraordinary time ...read more

Finding Secuirty And Significance Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on May 16, 2003

When marriages crumble, we often hear people say that they just must have been “wrong” for each other. More often than not, being right or wrong for someone depends not on some mysterious compatibility quotient, but on how willing and able we are to help

Finding Security and Significance There are a lot of jokes and one-liners about marriage. It’s probably because as beautiful as marriage is, as set forth in the song we just heard, it’s also extremely challenging and can be pretty ugly at times. It was George Burns who said, “I was married by a ...read more

Seeking The Face Of Jesus Christ Series

Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 18, 2011

Historically, Jesus Christ’s physical appearance remains a mystery. No one knows what he actually looked like. Nowhere in the Gospel accounts is he described, and no likeness of him of any kind in any form can be dated conclusively to the years of His l

The mysterious Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity. After Jesus rose from the dead, and spent time with his disciples and others in the city, he told them that though he was leaving, he would send the Holy Spirit to lead them and guide them in their mission.
