    Jesus really lays it out: You are going to be a person who invests your treasure for yourself, or you will be rich in God by laying up treasure in heaven. But it is objectively impossible for both.

    Dr. Bradford Reaves CrossWay Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org We come now to our second parable in our study of the parables of Jesus. And I chose to make this the 2nd of our study, after our study of the Soils, because they really go hand in hand. In your life, this world ...read more

    Introduction We are continuing in our short series of sermons that I am calling “Jesus in the Psalms.” We are looking at a few different psalms in the Psalter because they are particularly clear in pointing to the person and/or work of Jesus.

    Paul defends his apostleship, his divine message and his commission to the Gentiles. He highlights the conduct and the crux of the Gospel - justification by faith in Christ.

    See Jesus Defeat The Devil

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Mar 7, 2022
     | 2,325 views

    Because Christ fought the battle against Satan as one of us, he won that battle for all of us. Jesus is our perfect substitute. Even as the devil rages against us, we can face him and his temptations unafraid, confident that our champion, Jesus, has already won the victory over him.

    David versus Goliath. Thousands of years after their brief battle it is still used to describe conflicts. You have probably heard the comparison several times in recent days following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Clearly Russia is Goliath and Ukraine David. But don’t we also regularly hear the ...read more

    In all areas of our life, we can not help but notice that some folks are better at doing some things than others are.

    For example, this is certainly true, when it comes to: • Sports • Academics • Cooking • Building • Teaching • Saving money Sad to say, but this is also true when it comes to lying. Some are much better at telling lies than others are. Some people lie so much, that you know they are lying if their ...read more

    Several years ago, a very popular song that made the top ten list of favorites among many Americans was called, “Don’t worry…Be happy!”

    It was sung by Bobby McFerin and the words go like this: “Don't worry, be happy In every life we have some trouble But when you worry you make it double Don't worry, be happy Don't worry, be happy now” “Don't worry, be happy Don't worry, be happy Don't worry, be ...read more

    Roll That Stone Away! Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 20, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,729 views

    God was not asking them to raise the dead, He was simply telling them to take a step of faith and remove that stone and then they will see what He can do.

    Can you imagine Jesus who is 100% God and 100% human walking into the middle of a situation that would, to most people, seem completely hopeless? Hearing the wailing of friends and family over Lazarus’ death, then listening to Martha and Mary express their heartache? They were so disappointed that ...read more

    Pray Boldly!

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jul 28, 2025
     | 265 views

    "Your will be done on earth as in heaven." We may not say the exact words but many of our prayers could be summarized with the words, “please let my will be done.” What's the answer to this paradox of prayer?

    “Your will be done on earth as in heaven.” In the prayer we affectionately call the Lord’s Prayer we refer to that phrase as the Third Petition. Remember that a petition is specific request. There are seven petitions in the Lord’s Prayer as we pray it. After addressing God as our Father in ...read more
