    Discipleship part 2 INTRODUCTION To open I would like to start with a true story that happened here at our church. A mother at our playgroup called ‘Jane’ wanted to know more about God, so I started a bible study after the play group. After a few weeks she said it was great but what ...read more

  • It’s Nobody’s Business But Mine.

    Contributed by Eugene Morell on Jul 1, 2012

    IT’S NOBODY’S BUSINESS BUT MINE. JOSHUA 7: 1-26. I have noticed that sometimes we like to use short phrases to give people a quick answer to their question.

  • Prayer And The Chronically Unhappy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 21, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,131 views

    For Reformation Sunday, October 1987: Job in the Old Testament and Luther in the Reformation Era were chronically unhappy people, but used that as a form of spiritual energy to drive them toward creative achievement and an honest personal faith.

    It looks as though some people are just born to be unhappy. There are some people who are going to approach nearly everything with a complaint or a gripe, who are going to make a personal issue out of everything. Nothing is quite good enough, nothing quite satisfies. There are folks whose ...read more

     | 7,219 views

    Departing from God does not necessarily mean a physical departing in which a person goes fully back into the world from which he was redeemed – while this is true of some for many others it is a spiritual departing.

    Many Christians depart from God; Why? What’s God’s remedy? Jo 6:66 From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him (with Jesus) no more. What are some of the direct causes for Christians to no longer actively walk with God? Love of a sin more than of ...read more

  • Are You A Believer Or A Receiver?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 29, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,089 views

    There is a growing belief within the church that a person who is a believer in Jesus is considered a Christian and has therefore been given eternal life after they say the "sinners prayer." This is an in-depth multipart message

It is true that Judas was one of the multiple disciples Jesus ...read more
