    As we read the text of this sermon, we see a poor, diseased woman who with a grain of hope pushes her way through the crowd to be healed, but receives so much more once she touches the Master.

    Moments with the Master Series A TOUCHING MOMENT Mark 5:25-34 Intro Mark chapter 5 is brimming with impossible cases. It has been called the Bible home for incurables. There are three cases given in this chapter which are absolutely, humanly speaking, hopeless and impossible. There was the ...read more

     | 3,903 views

    God’s answer to the question: "Who is my neighbor?" often leaves us asking for option "B".

    Today’s question from the Word of God is: Who is your neighbor? I would have to guess that this Scripture is the second most known story that Jesus ever told ... the story of the Good Samaritan. READ vv. 25-29 A Good Question And An Unexpected Answer That’s a good question. People ask questions ...read more

    We don’t have what it takes to live a Christian life. Only Jesus Christ living through us can do that.

    I can’t remember when I first learned John 3:16. It seems as if I grew up knowing this verse of Scripture. I heard about a lady who used to make her children memorize a verse of Scripture when they wanted something. One day her daughter said, "Momma, everything I have I have because of Scripture. ...read more

    Have you ever felt like a spiritual hypocrite? Good news… Jesus understands… and he came not to condemn us… but to call us out… from outward religion to real life and relationship with God.

    Breakthrough Spirituality Brad Bailey – February 25, 2007 (Much of the ‘commentary’ notes used in prep for this message are from or adapted from Don Williams, KingdomRain website study on Gospel of Mark Such commentary was never read but merely serves as ideas that were drawn on and ...read more

    Do we worship the same God in different ways? Is Jesus a way? One way out of many? Or is Jesus the only way? Jesus said, ’I am the way, the truth and the life’.

    I am the Way, the Truth, the Life John 14:5 Introduction A little boy was lost inside a busy shopping mall. He was standing in the aisle of a department store just crying and crying, "I want my mommy.. I want my mommy." People who passed by felt sorry for him and many of them gave him nickels and ...read more

    This is week five of a seven part series based on Andy Andrews book, the Traveler’s Gift. This week we look at the Joyful decision and how that looks in the beleiver’s life.

    To be like Christ, to be Christ like.

    One side was fear, the other side was life. One side was a hopeless man, the other side was a God who loves to breath new hope and life. One side is cruel kids, the other side is broken hearts.

We look at one side at a time, and without a mirror or some other tool we can only look at one side at a time – we can’t see the other unless we flip it over. As I walked towards ...read more

    Jesus tells Nicodemus of the new birth.

    If you’ve ever taught a class, there is one kind of student that can absolutely drive you crazy. And it seems like there’s one in every crowd. That’s the person who has an answer for everything. I got a kick out of a couple of the kids during the youth rally who were like that. In the very ...read more

    Many people today claim to be Christians yet have no idea what that really means. All too often we have stripped Christianity of all its content and meaning in an attempt to win converts. But Christianity does have content. Its content is the Gospel and t

    I read the transcript of an interesting interview this week. The religion reporter from a newspaper was asking a person in her town about his faith.
