We need to seriously examine whether we are in a position to hear God's voice and to obey His commands to us, and to understand that God is able to get our attention if necessary and it may not necessarily be a pleasant experience if we are not in a posi

Everyday People Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Nov 16, 2009

As you look at our passage today, you will notice that it is just a list of names—names we don’t recognize and that we can’t pronounce. So why are they important? Because all of these people were everyday people just like we are, and God loves everyday pe

Even though we only read the first 3 verses of chapter 11, our passage tonight goes all the way through verse 26 of chapter 12. So what all is contained in this passage? It’s just another name list. It’s a list of plain, ordinary, everyday people. I don’t know anybody like that, do you? The ...read more

The Call Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jun 16, 2025

While Jesus announces for the first time to his disciples his call to the cross, He calls us to confess who he is and calls us to live a crucified life.

I would guess that we are probably similar in that we get so many unwanted calls each day. Somehow, I’ve been getting calls for some group who says they can get me on Social Security Disability. Other times I’ve been on the list for VA loans - except I’m not a veteran. I’ve received calls for ...read more

The 153 Fish Wake-Up Call Series

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025

As seasons shift, many of us need a reset with Jesus. John 21 shows the risen Christ meeting drifting disciples, filling empty nets, and inviting them to “come and have breakfast.” This isn’t box-checking; it’s returning to the One who seeks us, provides for us, and re-commissions us.

Can you feel it in the air? That subtle shift as summer fades into fall? Me either. But somehow every single store in all of existence seems to feel it as they’re already putting out Christmas decorations. I think by next year we’re going to see combo-fireworks stands selling candy canes and ...read more

This is the final part of a two part series. We survey the stories of Genesis 1-22 with power point slides and then share this lesson. God wants us back! He calls us. We will answer to God one day. His desire is that we come to Him and receive grace.

Moses Returns To Egypt Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 4, 2022

Moses didn't want this call to deliver Israel from oppression. It was 40 years ago he stepped out to take on the role of deliverer. It wasn't God's will at that time and the plan failed. Now 40 years later he has a fear to try again.

Receiving a call to serve God is never enough. We must respond in obedience. There was a very dramatic call experience for Moses. We know it as the burning bush call. Each person has a unique call of God, but the burning bush call for Moses stands out. What does not stand out in Moses’ call are ...read more

Submission to God ordained authority and obedience to God are important principles we should follow in order to experience God’s amazing provision in our lives. Here are some great examples from the bible who will help us put this principle into practice in our own lives.
