    Contributed by Rick Crandall on May 18, 2024
     | 1,548 views

    “Do not fear, only believe” and “give God time.” We may not be able to predict how or even when God is going to act but we can be certain that He will.

    As he rushed towards the shore, his heart sank as he saw how many people were already there. How was he ever going to get close enough to Him to plead for his daughter’s life … but still.

    Lord, Teach Us To Pray Series

    Contributed by Chris Anderson on Mar 10, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,276 views

    The disciples spent an amazing amount of time with Jesus and would have had many opportunities for them to ask him to teach them something. And of all the amazing things they could have asked Jesus to teach them, only one thing is recorded: “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1).

    Imagine with me for a moment that you’re one of Jesus’ disciples. You’ve been following him around for a little while now and you’ve seen him do some pretty incredible things…you’ve seen him heal crippled people, you’ve seen him cast out demons, you even saw him speak life into a dead guy. You’ve ...read more

    The Resurrection Story Series

    Contributed by Chris Anderson on Mar 15, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,582 views

    When Jesus was crucified, the message was relayed all across the land that the Messiah was dead. But later, on the third day, the fog would lift. What looked like a crushing defeat was nothing more than the set-up for an incredible victory of sin, death, and hell.

    The year was 1815. There were no satellites or telephones or even telegrams yet. There were no radios to communicate news. Nobody could send a text message or post a message on Facebook or YouTube. Still, the ENTIRE country of England knew that General Wellington was facing Napoleon in a ...read more

    Mark 7:24-30 tells a powerful story about a woman who needed a desperate intervention in her life. A woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit and heard about him. She says, "Have mercy on me, o son of David: for my daughter is grievously vexed with a demon".

    1 John 3:8, it tells us, "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested". Now when you read John's gospel in the first chapter it tells us very clearly, "In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. And nothing was created without him". ...read more

    1:8 “First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.” First order of business: thank you, God, for the Roman church.
