     | 25,080 views

    Paul commends Timothy for his faith which was first found in his grandmother and mother as both were women of faith – faith that was genuine, communicated, and influential.

    Abiding In Christ Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 10,298 views

    The ultimate goal of every believer should be Christ-likeness. The closer we walk with Him, growing in grace, the more like Him we become. In order to live victorious, fulfilling Christian lives, we must abide in Christ.

    Abiding in Christ 1 John 3: 18-24 Living a Christian life requires much more than church attendance during weekly services. Being known as a Christian is literally to be known as a follower of Christ, one who strives to live life as Christ lived. Being a Christian isn’t merely ...read more

    Authority In The Synagogue Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 1, 2017
     | 11,706 views

    Jesus possesses great wisdom and authority regarding the Word, and He also possesses authority over all creation, humanity, and Satan himself. We face nothing our Lord cannot handle. His power and authority are unmatched and unlimited.

    Authority in the Synagogue Mark 1: 21-28 As we continue moving through the Gospel of Mark, bear in mind that he is writing primarily to a Roman audience, seeking to portray Jesus as the Servant of Men. It is a dialogue that moves rapidly from one event to the next. The fast pace, with which Mark ...read more

    The Need To Be Filled With The Holy Spirit

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,639 views

    The Holy Spirit isn't just an "add on" to our lives, He is a necessity. He transforms believers to "Christians" - little anointed ones! Just as we spend time occupied in relationships with others, work, or tasks, we need even more to be "occupied" by Him.

    The Need To Be Filled With The Holy Spirit Acts 2:1-4 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.3 Then there appeared to them ...read more

    Jesus brings us real peace.

    THE PEACE THAT JESUS PROVIDES.

Who knows where my notes are from that class but I do remember that this ...read more

     | 13,804 views

    We might call this a warning against ill-considered kindness, or against unnecessary debt creation. God does not want you needlessly in debt or responsible for someone who is.

    PROVERBS 6: 1-5 THE SNARE OF OVER-EXTENDED FINANCIAL OBLIGATION [Matthew 5:25-26] Our master teacher warns against becoming liable for the financial obligations of others. These verses are not a case against generosity, but against overextending one’s financial resources and acting in ...read more

    An All Saints' Day sermon about celebrating the people in our lives who have followed Christ's unexpected and extravagantly generous ways, and our call to do the same.

    This week I read a status update on Facebook. The post was put there by my mentor, a pastor in Virginia. He said, “It is very telling who stops when you have run your car into the ditch on the side of the road. It wasn’t what would be termed the cream of society, that’s for ...read more

    Paul was in prison and the Philippians were in poverty. How are we to face similar fearful times as followers of Jesus. Paul teaches us the key to this with just a short sentence. "For me to live is Christ."

    Intro: Paul was in prison and the Philippians were in poverty. Have you ever wondered how some face fearful times with such faith. Paul is giving clear encouragement to us today. Our faith will overcome fearful times when we discover Jesus doesn’t add to our life He is our life. We as ...read more
