    “But David thought to himself, “One of these days I will be destroyed by the hand of Saul. The best thing I can do is to escape to the land of the Philistines. Then Saul will give up searching for me anywhere in Israel, and I will slip out of his hand.”

    David and his 600 men having been running here and there, constantly pursued by King Saul and the troops of Israel. He’s managed to evade Saul for a long time now, because God is with him. Several times he’s encountered Saul personally now, and spared his life. But David starts to feel like the ...read more

    GLORY IN THE SHAME! Galatians 6:14 Today, at least in Western society, the cross is a perfectly acceptable symbol, a rather harmless token of the Christian faith. Most people, except perhaps some of the trouble-making sort, take no offense at all to the sight of a cross. In fact, many people ...read more

    The Magi heard the Word of God from the mouth of the most wicked man in the kingdom, Herod; never the less, the Holy Spirit used that word to establish faith in them moving them to continue their journey to worship the one, true king.

    Preparing A Vacant Church For The Next Step

    Outliing the need to work together even when there are people we do not like are part of the team. Put the armour of light on and bury the clock of darkness.

    Peter uses the imagery of the church being God’s chosen nation even as Israel was in the days of the Old Testament. Note the similarities between what Peter says about the church in our text and what God told Moses to tell the Israelites: “‘Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out ...read more

    Many people ask the question, "Why is life unfair?" The Psalmist in the 73 Psalm, feels the same way. How do we answer this question?

    Why Do The Wicked Prosper? Life is unfair. There are so many things about life that don’t make sense. I had a great childhood. My father was a police officer here in Nashville.
