    Contributed by Paul Basehore on Sep 16, 2015
     | 10,764 views

    Philippians 4:13 does not say that we can literally do anything. What it does say, though, is that a super-powered God will willingly and repeatedly share His strength with us when things get difficult.

    Superheroes are a multi-million dollar enterprise. Superhero movies have more than 13 billion dollars in revenue since 1978 -- and that’s just the movies. Comic book sales in 2015 alone have reached 334 million dollars -- and the year’s not even done yet! In addition, the numbers I just ...read more

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Dec 3, 2014
     | 6,657 views

    Sometimes life and ministry seems to tax the joy and hope out of the believer. The attacks seem to come from every side. Am I wrong? Am I in the wrong place? Problems? Hang on, if the snake bites, shake it into the fire and go on.

    Friend, who said being a Christian and serving God are easy? The battle begins now!

    Basket journey! 2 Corinthians 11:33”…but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall and escaped his hands.” Well, when we travel in a train, we call it train journey, can I call this ‘basket journey’ because Paul travels down the window to the ground in ...read more

    The series of appearances by Jesus after his resurrection culminates in a most unexpected way with a most unexpected person -- Saul of Tarsus. The impact that this made on the primer persecutor of the Way changed his life and the lives of others forever!

    How can we develop a heart for the lost, a heart like the apostle Paul's?

    How would you describe someone who has a heart for dogs? Well, we would say they love dogs. We know this because they’re constantly surrounded by dogs. They’re the one who constantly post cute pictures of dogs on facebook. Dogs are their passion, their first love. They go out of their ...read more

    Paul has a few anchors for his soul. He knows the presence of God, the purpose of God and the promise of God.

    Last week we read about Paul in Corinth, where he worked for a moment as a tentmaker, with Aquila and Priscilla. [See Map] • From there he went to Syria and then to Ephesus with the tent-making couple, and subsequently left for Antioch. That concluded his 2nd journey. End of Acts 18 ...read more

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 2, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,736 views

    Those who assume positions of influence and leadership must be willing to pay the price to hold such positions. In this lesson we'll explore the price Peter paid in Antioch when he played the hypocrite and was rebuked by Paul.

    There are people in this world who possess the natural ability to lead and command the respect of others. Whether you call it charm, charisma, magnetism, or whatever, such people wield a powerful influence on those who look up to them as the embodiment of all they would like to become ...read more

    Was The Early Church The "Golden Age"? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 31, 2018
     | 4,581 views

    Christians today tend to romanticize the early church as a Golden Age when passages like this one present a picture of a church with plenty of struggles. What does that mean for how we should view the church today?

    - Read 2 Corinthians 1:12-17 and 2:1-10. An Early Church Story: - What we are looking at today is just one story from the early church. 1. There was serious sin in the church. - 2 Corinthians 2:6; 1 Corinthians 5:1-13. - We know this from 1 Corinthians 5 and Paul’s extensive instructions to ...read more
