    Hearing Versus Listening

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 30, 2024

     | 1,746 views

    Today we are going back to the OT days of Nehemiah to see how the people of that day listened or just heard God's Word. God has brought us here today, not just to hear a sermon, but to listen as God speaks to our heart.

    When you come to a service like this or attend a Bible study class, do you just hear what is said or do you listen? Is there a difference? For most of us listening is our most frequently used communication skill. Listening is a very important part of communication. One study points out that ...read more

    Restoring Worship

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 26, 2024

    Nehemiah was broken hearted over the condition of his people. Do you know something is sadly missing in our churches today? Weeping! How long has it been since you saw wet eyes in church? Tears at the altar?

    Opening illustration: I was never ever overwhelmed with worship at any church in our nation as much as my spirit was moved by the worship at the rickety broken ‘Church of Noah’s Ark’ at Monterrey, Mexico. Even though I did not understand the language, but the power of the Holy Spirit was so ...read more

    The most important way that joy becomes strength is by knowing who we are, and whose we are, and why we are.

    Why did they weep? Why did the people of Jerusalem grieve when Ezra read the word of God to them? The people of Jerusalem had just achieved a major victory: rebuilding the wall around the city which had been destroyed during their seventy years of captivity in Babylon. They had foiled their ...read more
