The Aspects Of Prayer Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 12, 2022

In this text, Jesus spoke of nine different aspects of prayer that we are encouraged to embrace as we pray. His focus deals with the attitude of the heart. This is not a sample, replacement prayer we are to use instead of seeking the Lord for our needs and desires.

The Aspects of Prayer Matthew 6: 9-13 We have come to one of the most recognized portions in all of Scripture. I think it would be safe to say, this passage is among the top three most quoted passages, along with Psalm 23 and John 3:16. Most of the time, it is referred to as the Lord’s Prayer. I ...read more

New: Flat-Line Faith

Contributed by John Bishop on Mar 25, 2009

Staying on fire for God can be one of the most difficult things we do. Pastor John Bishop talks to us about the Church at Laodicea and how we can maintain the joy of our salvation and share it with the rest of the world.

Saving Grace Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Oct 14, 2022

1) Abraham’s justifying faith did not come by his circumcision (Romans 4:9–12); it did 2) not come by his keeping the law (vv. 13–15); but rather 3) it came solely by God’s grace (vv. 16–17).

Romans 4:9-17. 9 Is this blessing then only for the circumcised, or also for the uncircumcised? For we say that faith was counted to Abraham as righteousness. 10 How then was it counted to him? Was it before or after he had been circumcised? It was not after, but before he was circumcised. 11 He ...read more

Unity

THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: In the church there is a bond of family, yet room for variety. The devil tries to disrupt unity. To chickens tied at the legs and thrown over a clothesline may be united, but they do not have unity. (Leslie Flynn, Great Church Fights - Swindoll’s Book of Illustrations, ...read more

The Life Line Series

Contributed by David Richardson on Nov 21, 2007

Paul gives a revealing picture of the hardships of his ministry. Nine trials are listed here, and most can be found in the book of Acts. What stands out to me is how Paul writes with knowledge of how some perceive him because of the trails
