    Giving God Our Leftovers Series

    Contributed by Dan Raymond on Dec 7, 2015
     | 13,543 views

    We continue looking at the astounding mathematics of grace by looking at a widow's very small offering that Jesus says is more than anyone else gave. I also have graphics available.

    (Show video of comedian Anthony Griffith talking about hand-me-downs) That's funny. Hand-me-downs, leftovers; those things are okay I guess if you're talking about old clothes or your mom's cooking. But there are other times when leftovers aren't such a good idea: handkerchiefs, motor oil, maybe ...read more

    The 12 Days Of Christmas Series

     | 16,967 views

    When you view the Christmas story in Scripture, it almost seems like God didn't invest much in Jesus' birth. Lowly parent, born in a barn, laid in a manger, announced to mere shepherds. Is there something about this gift of Christ that we're missing?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yc00HVmkaXY (acapella – fade out at 3:00) Did you notice how much fun those guys had singing that song? That’s the way it ought to be because Christmas is a fun time of the year. There’s another Christmas song that says that Christmas is the ...read more

    The Ten Commandments - Are They For Now?

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Oct 14, 2014
     | 4,268 views

    We hear about the 10 Commandments. In Jesus’ day Jews had to obey these and 600+ rules. But in these days, we don't like to hear about what we should or shouldn't do. So, Christian - can you dump them as many are preaching? Grace vs Law - who wins?

    We are used to hearing about the 10 Commandments. The Jews of Jesus’ day had to obey these plus over 600 more rules. In these days, we do not like to hear about what we should or should not do. We do not like being told, “Do this,” or, “Don’t do that.” Have you ...read more
