Jesus Inspects His Church Series

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 7, 2022

In Rev. 2-3, the SUPERNATURAL GAZE OF JESUS searches our hearts and tests our motives. He inspected the churches - then & now. Jesus saw 3 major problems: false reputations, lukewarm attitudes, and those who'd left their first love.

JESUS INSPECTS HIS CHURCH REV. 2-3 WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT THE FUTURE 4 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: FORGET THE EYE EXAM 1. It had been many years since my last eye exam and my wife was pestering me to make an appointment. The more she nagged, the more I procrastinated. Finally she made an appointment ...read more

Joseph: Reunited With His Family Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 13, 2022

Joseph was separated from his family at the age of 17 not because of war, but because of the wicked jealousy of his own brothers. In their jealousy they sold Joseph into slavery and presented his ornamented coat to their father. God used this for his purposes.

A popular television feature is to find a situation where a family has been separated because of war or some tragedy. The show does research to find out where the missing family members are. Then they reunite the family on television. It certainly makes for a moving experience with tears and ...read more

God Complains To His People

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 5, 2022

Consider a lawyer as he sets forth God's case against the people of Israel and Judah. That was Micah's job. God did not like the sin that happened then, and He doesn't like it today.

The book of Micah was written to God's people, the children of Israel in the Northern Kingdom, and of Judah in the Southern Kingdom. It was written to warn them of the coming judgment from God but to also for them to repent. Throughout the book of Micah, the need for peace and justice is ...read more

The circumcision of Jesus.

HIS NAME WAS CALLED JESUS. Luke 2:15-21. The shepherds left all else aside in order to seek Christ, and that with all due haste (Luke 2:15-16). No word is given as to who watched their sheep whilst they were gone: they had more pressing matters to attend to. Their earlier fear had been totally ...read more

Encounters - The Proof Of His Presence

Contributed by Steve Ely on Sep 27, 2023

We say we want to encounter God but what does that look like? Do we see Him? Do we discern Him? Are we aware of His presence?

Encounters? The Proof of His Presence I. Introduction I like guarantees! I want financial plans that guarantee returns. I want an exercise program that will guarantee weight loss.

Jesus And His Prayer Life Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Oct 7, 2023

We all need a daily pattern of prayer. Sometimes we also need an extended time of prayer. It means we are following the pattern of our Lord and really making time for solitary prayer a priority along with our corporate time of prayer.

We need to pray. We need to follow the example of our Lord Jesus who made prayer a priority. We will look at the passage of scripture that tells us about when Jesus got up very early and got off by himself to pray. There was a cartoon where one praying mantis was talking with another and said, ...read more

The Priorities Of Jesus And His Family Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jan 7, 2025

This passage seems to reveal how Mary, Joseph and Jesus prioritized God’s things in their routines, regards (or affections), and relationships.

Today, as we continue our study in the book of Luke, we come to a rather peculiar passage that provides a rare glimpse into Jesus’ childhood. The other gospels vary in how much they share about Jesus before his public ministry begins. Matthew devotes about 48 verses to Jesus’ early years (some of ...read more
