    Everyone has doubts, especially in trying times like these. Thomas shows us to guard in your low times, draw strength from others, and meet the risen Lord.

    John 20:19-20, 24-29 Defeating Doubt In this terrible time of pandemic, you might be tempted to think, “Where are you, God? Why don’t you stop this? Are you really there?” Everyone goes through doubts in their faith, even Mother Teresa. She once wrote her spiritual director, “Where I try to raise ...read more

     | 7,552 views

    Thomas should not be condemned or even criticized for his insistence upon empirical evidence. Thomas provides an exemplary modal from which we can learn more about the nature of convincing faith.

    (If you have found this sermon useful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info.) When we think of the Apostle Thomas, we sometimes think of him in a somewhat negative light. The event involving Thomas in John 20:19-31 has given rise to the phrase, “Don’t be ...read more

    Thorns And Grace (July 2012).

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020
     | 6,714 views

    Perhaps one of the most intriguing passages of scripture is that of Paul's mention of the "thorn in his flesh." Paul expounded upon his metaphor of the thorn as he said that it was something that kept his pride in check.

    THORNS AND GRACE 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 I remember going barefoot as a ten year old kid, when I was living in Aiken as a preacher’s kid. As I was going barefoot, I wound up stepping on a board that had three nails in it. The pain got my attention and definitely ...read more

    The more personally we read this passage, the more the death of Christ will mean to us (Title, outline and material adapted from Ray Pritchard at: https://www.keepbelieving.com/sermon/the-suffering-substitute/)

    HoHum: Why did Jesus die? This has been pondered for 2,000 years.

     | 1,628 views

    If you were told you could only give a one word definition for God, how would you define Him? God is…love, and the only love God knows is unconditional...

    God Is? 1 John 4:16 One day, C.H. Spurgeon was walking through the English countryside with a friend. As they strolled along, the evangelist noticed a barn with a weather vane on its roof. At the top of the vane were these words: GOD IS LOVE. Spurgeon remarked to his companion that he thought this ...read more

     | 2,339 views

    Solomon is not interested only in helping individuals construct a building to eat and sleep in, as important as that is. Instead, the word house is used to represent a happy home, a good family, a sweet life. Let's dare to build.

    Sermon - The Building Blocks of A Happy Home Scripture: Proverbs 24:3-4 “A house is built by wisdom and becomes strong through good sense. Through knowledge its rooms are filled with all sorts of precious riches and valuables.” Introduction: With so much division in the world, you may wonder, can ...read more

    Our Enemy resists us receiving any of the benefits of Christ. We must go to Court with our Advocate, Jesus, who will present the Exhibits of His suffering to prove that we are heirs and benefactors. Then we can claim our own!

    Jesus brings with Him choices for us to make. Will we follow Him, or will we try and get rid of Him?

    “A Miracle and a Motive” John 11:1-7, 17-19, 32-53 How many of you have read or heard the story of Jesus raising Lazarus before? Where we stop reading the story has a lot to do with how we interpret it. If I were to have stopped reading at verse 45, the story would have a happy ending, ...read more

     | 2,409 views

    Easter is one of our most holy of celebrations as a Christian. This is the day our Lord, defeated the world and proved He was, beyond the shadow of doubt, truly... the Son of God!

    I’ve always talked about how difficult it sometimes is to write something for everyone each week. We’ve all heard God’s words and, hopefully, have listened intently and realized the Love He has for us and the sacrifice His Son made to free us from ourselves. This week, my task was not all that ...read more
