It Takes More Than 'just A Little Talk With Jesus' To Make It Right

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 20, 2013

If God did not spare Israel for transgressing the covenant, He won't let anyone else either. True repentance will turn God's anger and covenant curses for disobedience away. But this must be more than a temporary matter

Don’t Make Jesus a One-Night Stand 2 Kings 22-23 2 Chronicles 34-35 The spiritual condition of Judah at the time Josiah took the throne of the kindom was deplorable.

Contributed by Dan Cale on Nov 5, 2012

In an age when the church is becoming increasingly irrelevant to the daily life of people, when the message of the church seems to increasingly fall on deaf ears, and when the truth is mocked as meaningless and unattainable, Jesus speaks to us these words

When You Pray Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Oct 30, 2016

This series is based on the movie, War Room. This lesson is a reminder of God's Expectation of our prayers. It is not, "If" but "When" we pray.

Perhaps one of the ways God will make the church great again is through the prayers of His people. 2. We know that God is anxious to hear ...read more

Two Dogs Inside Of Us

Contributed by Gary Christensen on Mar 15, 2016

What's wrong with me? I want to serve God, but, instead, I sin! I want to Live in the Spirit, but, instead, I'm still living in The Power of my Flesh! Maybe it's because i have Two Dogs living inside of me! The story of the two dogs. (Our Two Natures)

Shortly after I first became a Christian, I was told of this story of The Two Dogs, and it made a lot of sense. It helped me to understand why I was, the way that I was, and it helped me to understand what I needed to do, to be better than I had been. Every believer has a Dual Nature. ...read more

Sharing Ministry Together

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 13, 2021

When the volunteer workload is placed on the shoulders of just a handful of people, then these individuals get burnt out; and since they can’t do everything, then a lot of needs go unmet. Ministry is something to be shared among all believers.

I wish to begin our message by sharing a personal account contributed by a pastor who was serving at a church in Washington State during the wake of the Mount St. Hellens eruption. This pastor said, After Mount St. Helens blew up in May 1980, [the] church needed cleaning up. Ash was in the ...read more
