The Eternal Word Became One Of Us

Contributed by Vicki Williamson on Feb 28, 2022

Since before the beginning of all things, that is before the beginning as defined by the creative energy of the Eternal Voice, before He spoke light into the darkness and form into the void, He was there. God was there before the beginning.

7 Ways To Serve One Another Series

Contributed by Jim Luthy on Dec 12, 2001

So how do we rightly relate to one another in our small groups? I have found there is no reason to "reinvent the wheel" in responding to this question. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, in his classic work, Life Together, explains 7 ways to serve your small group.

Last week, I used an illustration to show that Jesus should be the center of our small group meetings. He is the real leader of the small group. He is alive. He comes to us in the person of the Holy Spirit. And he is Lord. But lying underneath this goal of our gathering is the reality that we ...read more

No One Can Stand Against Us

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 16, 2025

God was with Joshua just as He was with Moses. God blessed Joshua and made him a great leader because of the qualities God saw and approved in him. If we live the way Joshua did and God is for us, no one can stand against us too all the days of our lives.

For our meditation today we will look at Joshua 1:5, “No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you.” (ESV) These are the words of God to Joshua. The Lord told Joshua that no one would be ...read more

Can Only One Of Us Be Right Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jul 5, 2010

In Christianity we have God revealed to us in a way that none other can claim, as a God who gives up his own life to bring all people back to himself.

This is a series based on and heavily dependent on Timothy Keller’s Best Seller "The Reason For God" for which I’m deeply grateful. It uses much of his argument though with various additions by myself. I guess we’re all aware of the Atheists’ conference held in Melbourne in February. You may even ...read more
