    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Oct 20, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 29,749 views

    Our attitude toward money & how we use it is a barometer of our spiritual state. It reveals whether we are foolishly thinking only of the present or astutely looking to eternity. What is the purpose of money anyway?

    LUKE 16: 1-13 [PARABLES IN LUKE] TRUE RICHES [Matthew 6:25-34] Some athletes, entertainers and CEOs receive astronomical salaries. They take all they can get and use it for their own personal interests. They seem to set an example for our culture which spends so much to entertain ...read more

    The Bad Judge Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 2, 2014

     | 28,235 views

    God dedicated 57 verses to a wicked judge who ruled as king in Israel for about 3 years. Why would He do that? Is it possible the story of this evil man has something to us about how we should think as Christians?

    OPEN: In Clay County, Kentucky there was a judge named R. Cletus Maricle. He was one of the rare judges I could find online who had been permanently disbarred. You might ask: “Jeff, why was he disbarred?” I’m glad you asked. R. Cletus Maricle was disbarred because he and 7 other ...read more

    What Do I Need To Know About Sex? Series

    Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Nov 4, 2014
     | 3,974 views

    God's plan was always to reach the world. Yet by Acts 10, the Gospel had gone no further than Jews & a few Samaritans. Why? racism & bigotry. In Acts 10, God changed all that in the story of Cornelius, leading to a dramatic salvation that changed history.
