Droughts

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Sep 9, 2024

Last week I asked “Am I the fear-filled Spirit void Peter denying Christ, or the Holy Spirit filled Peter proclaiming the gospel of Jesus”?

Do You Love Me?

Contributed by Greg Nance on Jan 10, 2010

Jesus asks Peter this question three times. It is the only time in scripture where Jesus asks anyone, "Do you love me?" It is an important question that determines our ultimate destiny.

Do You Love Me? What are some things that you love? How does your love of these compare with your love for Jesus Christ? There’s a song in our songbook that goes: “The things that I love and hold dear to my heart are just borrowed they’re not mine at all. Jesus only let me use them to brighten ...read more

Who Do Men Say I Am? Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Feb 15, 2012

It is interesting to poll the crowd to see what others think of Jesus (Yeshua). What matters, though is what YOU think of him. Understanding Jesus (Yeshua) impacts the actions of our lives.

Justification By Faith Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on May 25, 2014

The earliest controversy in the church was over a critical matter: What does it mean in practical terms to be a member of God’s family? Also, coming to Christ is an act of self-denial. We are “under new management.”

Introduction: One thing we can all agree on: People rarely agree! Even in the early church there was conflict; and while we’d prefer unity among believers, disputes happen. In an awkward moment Peter and Paul were at odds. Paul confronted the head of the church to his face…because ...read more
