    The first marriage shows us what God meant marriage to be.

    [Read Genesis 2:18-25.] In Genesis 2:22, we read of the world’s first marriage ceremony: “[God] brought [the woman] to the man.” God “gave away” the first bride and Mr. Adam and Miss Eve were joined together in holy matrimony. You could say it was a marriage “made in heaven.” Once when the ...read more

     | 3,542 views

    We choose what is good enough for us, cars, entertainment and homes. God expects offerings to him to be more thatn good. HE demands excellence.

    A Good Little Church There are a lot of good things in life. We all make choices in what is good enough. Like how many premium channels on our TV. Perhaps extra things that we deserve after all our hard work. The harder we work the more careful we are with our spare time. (I’m not sure ...read more

    I believe that God wants you and me to come to be ready to fulfill a great destiny. However, we must be prepared/ready for that destiny. Just as the people of Israel had to eat the Passover Lamb with a certain physical posture about them, so we too must t

    New & Improved Or Tired & Old Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 25, 2005
    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,256 views

    Sometimes the new and improved isn’t - and we become leary. When God came up with a new and improved way to approach Him, some thought the new way was uncomfortable so they wanted to go back.

    There’s no doubt that we as humans like the comfortable and the familiar. Especially when presented with challenges - we like what we know. My dog is like that. She knows that when we are finished exercising on Saturday morning that it’s time for her walk. And at a certain time in the evening - she ...read more

    Here in Lent we explore stones. We begin today with the shattering of the commitment between God and God's people. Let us take up our stones and walk to the freedom of Easter and the rolling back of the stone.

    Labor Day: The Year of Jubilee was a period of rest and restoration; a time when debts were cancelled and slaves set free. Many today wish they could have a year’s vacation with all their debts cancelled! The greatest Jubilee is in Christ!

    On this Labor Day weekend, as we look at the account of the “Year of Jubilee,” we will observe a period of rest and restoration extended to the children of Israel. The Bible tells us that the Jubilee occurred every forty-nine years (v. 8). It was a time when all the land experienced a sabbath, or ...read more

    However you look at this story, the emphasis always appears to Thomas or us doubting, suggesting that we lack faith. It is not all to do with us; God has a role in our faith and we must let him work through us. We just cannot carry that burden alone.
