    I'm not the way I used to be, since the Lord has changed me.

    The change that Jesus brought into Paul’s life is one of the most dramatic narratives and radical transformations of a person that has ever been recorded. The record is that Saul whose name would be changed to Paul was born to a prominent Jewish family in Tarsus – the capital of the Roman ...read more

    We are born with them. We are often driven by them. Our emotions can help us and hurt us. The real challenge? Can our emotions help us Make a Difference?

    I'm Mad Pt. 3 - It's a Process I. Introduction We have been talking about how we communicate anger. We could say, "I'm fired up!" I'm steamed. That grinds my gears! I'm grated. I'm triffin'!" The way we say it isn't nearly as important as what we do ...read more

    Job 3

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Sep 16, 2019
     | 5,970 views

    Job had kept his hurt within himself because there was no one else with which to share it, but when three of his friends came to him, he finally began to vent. Chapter 3 shows us that when we are unable to understand God's reasons, we must still trust in His wisdom.

    We have been talking about the book of JOB, which some scholars believe to be the oldest book of the bible, and written by Moses as he wandered the deserts. So far, in chapters 1 and 2, we see where Satan got permission from God to attack Job. The only stipulation was that Satan would not cause ...read more

    Most teachings about “strongholds” tend to focus on how it hinders spiritual growth. But strongholds can also be the stabilizing force in spiritual maturity.

    A number of years ago the founder of a well-known Christian organization responded to a question about tithing in his blog. The man asking the question was married with three young children. The family had no savings and about $75,000 in debt. They had been tithing, but said if they stopped ...read more

    Do You Get It?

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 11, 2023
     | 1,499 views

    There is nothing that Jesus cannot do. But we can only get the message if we don’t let ourselves be distracted by trivia, and if our relationship with God is healthy.

    One of the reasons people loved to listen to Jesus was that he talked about things they knew about, scenes and events from their everyday lives. But the lives of the people Jesus talked to can seem very far away from our own, sometimes. His illustrations don’t always mean that much to us. What’s ...read more

    As you begin your Lenten journey, I pray that God would pour out his Holy Spirit upon you, empowering you to take up your cross and follow Jesus. I pray that both the strength and the boldness of Jesus would be yours as others look at you, and see a disciple of Jesus, following by His side.

    The Blessed Path to Restoration Lamentation 3:37-42; 55-58 NLT “Who can command things to happen without the Lord’s permission? Does not the Most High send both calamity and good? Then why should we, mere humans, complain when we are punished for our sins? Instead, let us test and examine our ways. ...read more

    Sanctified Speech

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 12, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 97 views

    God calls us to be sanctified vessels fit to be used for His greater purposes. One area that we need sanctification is our speech. In a world that thrives on lies and deception, the Lord Jesus challenges us to live a life of integrity and to practice speaking the truth at all times.

    The meditation for today is taken from Joshua 3:5, And Joshua said to the people, "Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do wonders among you." (AFV) There are two phrases that I wish to highlight from the above mentioned verse, the first one being ‘Sanctify yourselves’ and the ...read more

    Why Membership Is Placed In A Local Church?

    Contributed by Robert Webb on Sep 15, 2025

    As Christians we seek out a congregation with which to work and worship.

    The church “universal” is composed of all members of the church of Christ from all over the world, United States, Africa, In and etc.. It is impossible for an eldership to oversee every Christian in the world. Therefore, God designed the local congregation. The local congregation consists of ...read more
