What The Bible Teaches About Gambling

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 28, 2021

The purpose of this course is to make today’s Christians think about some of the things we are facing in our society as Christians. Christian people should be “thinking” people when it comes to the issues we face in our society.

For example, as Christians: • We can not allow others to do our thinking for us when it comes to deciding what is RIGHT and what is WRONG. • We can not just ignore these issues we face and hope they will go away. Through the ages of time, God’s people have had to face difficult situations in ...read more

Zechariah’s Third Vision: City Without Walls) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Nov 10, 2021

The Jews in Jerusalem were thinking too small in their expectations of God's goodness. God's future for his people is so abundant that man-made walls could not contain the blessings. Jerusalem will be a "city without walls."

But God is opening this word to us because it is so relevant to world events today and to our personal journey in God. Today we enter Zechariah’s third vision recorded in chapter 2. The vision, as a ...read more

Making A Difference

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 15, 2021

Notice these words, “And of some have compassion MAKING A DIFFERENCE…”

Some can live their entire life and never make any difference in a positive way. For example, God can leave some people on this earth for 90 or 100 years, and when they die, their life has made very little DIFFERENCE! Illus: God let Methuselah live on this earth for 969 years, and the only thing ...read more

Self Series

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Aug 24, 2022

This sermon focuses on culture's addiction to creating various versions of a "false-self" and how only God gives us access to the "true-self" made available through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
