    What was it like to watch Jesus die? It would be great to hear from someone who was there. Let's hear from the centurion in charge of that crucifixion.

    AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS [Monologue – Centurion] Introduction The old spiritual asks the question, “Were you there when they crucified my Lord?” Of course, physically, that is impossible since Jesus died on the cross nearly 2,000 years ago. Yet you do understand that He ...read more

    When called to go, Abraham obeyed and went. As God calls us into his glorious kingdom, he invites us to a life full of challenge, surprise and adventure!

    I have to be honest with you… when I was a kid I had a really wrong-headed idea of what the Christian faith was all about. I thought that being a Christian meant giving up a life of fun & excitement in order to come, sit on a pew and be a good boy. • I’m not sure where that notion came from… maybe ...read more

    Lent 4: The Lord has prescribed the method whereby we must be saved. It might seem odd - maybe crazy - like gazing at a snake on a pole... or a Savior on a Cross.

    Folks were fussing and griping. They were angry and upset and - as is almost always the case under these circumstances - they began to criticize. Soon the words became heated. The harshness of the comments spoken was only thinly veiled. The angry words spoken were like painful, barbed darts – ...read more

    The dark road to the Cross was full of rejection and pain, but and Jesus emerged on the other side of the cross into the brilliance of resurrection life! This road is also the pattern for every disciple.

    The Road to the Cross Luke 18:31-34 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION Communicating clearly is always a challenge for us. When we use the wrong word or mix up our words the result is often humorous.

     | 10,554 views

    Why did Christ suffer and die on an old wooden cross?

    Why the Cross? The cross is at the center of all Christianity. It was while our Lord Jesus Christ hung on the cross that our sins were forgiven. This wasn’t an easy task for Him, but He did it willingly, because He loves us and it was the will of His father. The Lamb of God, ...read more

     | 8,845 views

    The great apostle Paul refused to glory in anything other than the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The cross itself was not glorious, but the work of the cross accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ is where Paul gave glory.

    GLORIOUS CROSS OF CHRIST Galatians 6:14 A. What is the most glorious thing in all the world to you? 1. One would say, “It would be glorious to have plenty of money.” Another, “It would be glorious too have political power.” Someone else, “It would be glorious to have a ...read more
