    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 31, 2025
     | 254 views

    In a world that seeks wisdom and power, we are here to explore the foolishness of the cross, which is the only true power of God for salvation.

    Introduction: A Tale of Two Wisdoms Grace and peace to you from God our Father. The world preaches its own gospel around us. It preaches self-reliance. It promotes human achievement.

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Sep 24, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 412 views

    Wisdom is often measured by how many books you’ve read, how many degrees you have, or how clever your answers sound. But James—the half-brother of Jesus—reminds us that true wisdom is not about showing off knowledge but about living it out

    Go! And Walk in True Wisdom - James 3:13 James 3:13 – New Living Translation “If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honourable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom.” Introduction – The Question of Wisdom Let me begin with a question: How do ...read more

  • How Could Anything Exist Unless God Had Created And Sustained It?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 31, 2025
     | 98 views

    This takes us to the central Scripture of this Sunday, the beautiful and even humorous tale of Zaccheus, the renegade Jew. I call him “renegade” because only such a person would collect taxes for the despised Roman occupiers of the Jewish homeland.

    Thirty-first Sunday Integral 2025 (yr C) The book of Wisdom, which we have heard recently, is a late OT writing that is preserved in Greek rather than Hebrew. Its theology is very advanced. Here the writer addresses God poetically as creator, ruler and master of wisdom: “Before the LORD the whole ...read more

     | 337 views

    Are we ‘Stepping in the Light’? Are we walking in the footsteps of Jesus? Are we keeping the commandments of God?

    3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; 4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. 5 And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing ...read more

  • You're Not Simple, And Neither Is God

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 14, 2025
     | 204 views

    People want a "simple religion" and want to make God simple. Yet we ourselves are not simple at all, so how could our Creator be? Though God is complex, in Trinity, he displays for us love within that union, a love which models for us the love we should have for each other.

    Good Morning. Give me a simple religion. It’s what a lot of people want, and it’s what a lot of people have tried to turn Christianity into through the years. Of course, if someone calls US simple, we are very offended. Yet somehow, we think the God who made us has to be simpler than we are. I am ...read more

     | 524 views

    The vine of the Lord is holy, fruitful, and meant to flourish. But when little foxes are allowed in—small sins, secret habits, tolerated attitudes, and spiritual negligence—they ruin the vine.

    The burning needs to be rekindled in our hearts and in the church; the burning that comes from the preaching and hearing of the Word of God.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,938 views

    Exploring the relationship of church and state from the biblical model presented by Paul in his Letter to Roman Christians.

    “Rulers are not a cause of fear for good behaviour, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from the same; for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for ...read more

  • Church Discipline – Spanking Ourselves So God Doesn’t Have To – Part 1

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 28, 2020
     | 3,886 views

    It is God’s will that His church be pure. But preaching and teaching holiness will not bring about purity in the church if there is an indifference to how people respond.

    For this series, we've relied heavily on the books Shepherdology by Pastor John MacArthur (M) and Handbook of Church Discipline by Jay Adams (A) A new believer was invited to attend a "Young Adult Fellowship". When he arrived at the home of one of the young adults at the church he ...read more
