Fixing Our Eyes On Jesus Christ. Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on May 2, 2024

In a world where people’s opinions and actions can be unpredictable and hurtful, it’s easy to get distracted and lose focus on what truly matters.

As believers, we must remember to take our eyes off people and keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. The Bible reminds us in Hebrews 12:2, "Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning ...read more

Pass The Baton Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Jun 28, 2012

Why does God allow horrible things happen to innocent people? How often do people ask why would God do that or allow that to happen if He’s a loving God? I am going to do my best to answer those questions today, but I want to work through more of the stor

Contributed by Michael Collins on Jul 2, 2023

Peter reminds us of the new amazing identity we as believers now have in Christ. He goes on to caution us that the only way we are going to silence those who seek to condemn us is by our Christian conduct and our submission to governing authorities.

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 5, 2023

The Church universal is a New Testament concept revealed at the appropriate time, but it is special to see some types in the Old Testament that hint at the Church to come. These make interesting studies and parallels. Types always are satisfying to study.

Living With Weeds

Contributed by Monty Newton on Jul 19, 2011

We co-exist with evil people in the world because God is the only one who rightly judges people... God alone sees all of a person's life. And who knows... do we not believe that people can repent and become new creatures in Christ?

Rebuilding The Nation Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 14, 2011

Everything Falls Apart Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

The story of what happened in the Garden of Eden is important – powerfully important. And I want to make you aware at the outset, that this is not just the story of the wrongdoings of two people. No, it’s the story of how the first two people’s wrongdoing affects you and me.

We’re doing a series on God’s Big Story where we are tracing the central storyline of the Bible. The Bible isn’t a mass of unconnected stories. Instead, it is one story. And that is exactly the aim of this series – to see the big picture of the Bible. I want you to see the Bible is a single story. ...read more

Servant Evangelism

Contributed by Larry Grant on May 8, 2022

Tabitha stands as the Biblical model of “servant evangelism." What makes this form of evangelism so authentic, is that it has the ability to touch people that nobody else can reach. Humble service. This is what draws people to you; that is what draws people to the Christ in you.

A Song With A Sharp Rebuke Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 27, 2022

It has been called a Trojan horse song because it seems like it will be a love song between God and His people. Isaiah gets the attention of God’s people with this song. The people listened to and loved the song only to find they themselves are the scoundrel referred to in this song.

Songs are used for many purposes. There are love songs, worship songs even political protest songs. Isaiah who I think we could call the “singing prophet” composed an unusual song here. Once you have listened to the whole song you realize it is not what you first expected. It has been called a ...read more

The Pharisees Confront Jesus: What Does It Mean To Be A Hypocrite? An Issue Of The Heart Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jul 10, 2023

The Pharisees today are often regarded as hypocrites, mean, nasty, people who killed Jesus, and it’s true that they plotted against Jesus. But in general these were not bad people. These were religious leaders trying to help the people live according to God’s ways.

A lot of the scriptures that we look at, I feel like we get to understand another piece of the puzzle about who Jesus really is. It’s like we dive into a moment in history and we get to look over the shoulder of Jesus and see what he does, and why he does it, and we’re amazed. We want to live like ...read more
