     | 2,578 views

    The life of Elijah is such an encouragement to us as we are able to identify with him in his reaction to the events of his day - God is the same for us today and is able to strengthen and enable us to witness for Him.

    THE PROPHET WHO FELT LOSS 1 KINGS 19:1-19 Elijah was one of the greatest prophets of all time. God produced many mighty miracles through him; yet we see him at one of the low points in his life; in fact perhaps one of the darkest moments of his life. Amazingly, this dark period takes place ...read more

    The Tragedy Of Trash Talk Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 3, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 16,745 views

    The real tragedy of talking trash is that it hurts people and damages our relationship with God. How we treat (speak of) others not only affects them, but it affects our own closeness with God.

    The Tragedy of Trash Talk James 4:11-12 11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the ...read more

    The Blessing Series

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,369 views

    Blessings aren’t like anything else we do – they are a pronouncement of God’s good that will come upon another. They are prayers of faith, said aloud, for the benefit of the hearer (the child) as much as for the benefit of the One listening (God).

    Blessings are important, aren’t they? We ask for them – and couldn’t survive without them. God is the ultimate “Blesser” – so He has asked the same of His people: for Christian fathers to bless their children. The entire chapter of Genesis 27 speaks of one such blessing – when Isaac blessed both ...read more

    How can a Christian make sure we will stand before Christ with confidence when He returns?

    As John concludes his thoughts on fellowship with God, he speaks of Christ's return. It'll be a day of rejoicing or regret, depending on the quality of our fellowship with God in this life.
