    Your Resources Are Insufficient. That's What God Intends.

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Feb 20, 2022

    It was never God's intention that our resources should be sufficient. He wants to show us what he can do with the little we have.

    As we consider the world that we live in today; as we watch the news on television, as we read the paper, or more likely, read the news online; as we look around us, and consider everything that is happening in our nation and in the world, it’s easy to become discouraged and disillusioned. ...read more

    An airline pilot was flying over the Tennessee mountains and pointed out a lake to his copilot. “See that little lake?” he said. “When I was a kid I used to sit in a rowboat down there, fishing.

    Simple question: Should we pray to angels, guardian or otherwise?

    Section 336 of the Catholic Church's Catechism, states: From its beginning until death, human life is surrounded by their watchful care and intercession. Beside each believer stands an angel as protector and shepherd leading him to life. Already here on earth the Christian life shares by faith ...read more

    How To Get Along With Christians

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Aug 4, 2024
     | 2,070 views

    Jesus said that our love for other believers would be a testimony to the gospel. But sometimes, it's hard to tolerate, much less love, our fellow Christians. In his letter to the Colossians, Paul tells us how to do it.

    As I look around the room this morning, I see a lot of white and gray hair. That’s nothing to be ashamed of; in fact, Proverbs 16:31 tells us that “Gray hair is a crown of glory”. A “crown of glory”. I like that. My problem is that my crown gets a little smaller every year. By the way, I tried to ...read more

    Ready For Anything (Part 4: Going On The Offensive) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 9, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,520 views

    This exposition from Ephesians 6:10-18 deals with the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit. The prayer called for in verse 18 is part of the teaching concerning spiritual warfare. While a good defense is necessary, Christians must go on the offensive and fulfill the Great Commission.

    Intro We are dealing with spiritual warfare using Ephesians 6:10-18 as our text. Every Christian needs to know how to do spiritual warfare because every Christian is a soldier. Like it or not, you are in a fight with the devil. His intentions toward you are not good. He hates you because he hates ...read more

    It's Never A Fair Fight

    God has already secured your victory; every battle is tilted in your favor because Christ fights for you and lives within you.

    There is a strange honesty in the way life feels. No matter who you are, or where you’ve been, there comes a moment when you look at the landscape of your existence and whisper something with a sinking heart: “In the struggle of life, nothing is favored for my success or well-being.” That’s how ...read more

    I Met Him And He Gave Me A New Heart Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 11, 2021
     | 5,404 views

    Saul’s conversion into Paul is an example of the fact that no one is too far from God or too far beyond God’s reach or God’s power to save, to transform a person, and give them a new heart … a heart for Him alone.

    Today, doctors can literally give you a new heart … well, new to you at least. It once belonged to someone else. Someday medical science may be able to give us a mechanical heart … but I truly believe that only God can give you a change of heart. When I say that, I’m not talking about this ...read more
