Sunday Is Here, But Monday Is Coming

Contributed by Peter Mclewin on Mar 18, 2002

At the end of each day of the Holy Week, Jesus withdrew from the city and then returned in the morning with a fresh symbol of who He was. On Monday He used a fig tree to teach a powerful lesson about spiritual fruit.

While in Israel last month (March 2001) I once again had the privilege of walking down the Mount of Olives in a manner similar to that which Jesus did so many years ago on Palm Sunday. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of that view of city. It is, without a doubt, the best approach to the Holy ...read more

A Teacher's Heart Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 21, 2015

How does the gift of teaching help the church? And does that mean that if we don't have this gift that we don't have to teach?

Little Johnny wasn't getting good marks in school. One day he came up to the teacher’s desk and looked like he wanted to say something. “Yes Johnny” the teacher said. “Is there something you want?” Very quietly he said, "I don't want to scare you, but my daddy says ...read more

The Middle East is a potential power keg with chaos in Iran and the U S carrier fleet possibly involved. We look at the wrong teaching on the Gog/Magog war; the fate of Iran; what the carrier fleet might do; Israel’s restoration; the kings from the east; what does this mean for Christians?

Oh Boy! It's That Sermon Series

Contributed by Troy Borst on Feb 4, 2016

The key word today is “submission.” There, I said it. I started my sermon out by using a dirty word. Some of you might think it is a dirty word anyway. Let’s read the passage from Scripture that also uses the dirty word of the day.

Divine Vandalism - Mark 15:35-39 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jun 1, 2024

Is God our Savior? It depends on your definition of saving. If your concept of trouble and your idea of what it means to be saved from it don’t line up with God’s definitions, then you will find yourself very disappointed with God, and you might miss real salvation altogether.

Introduction Is God our Savior? It depends on your definition of saving. A lot of things depend on your definition of saving.

He's Still Around

Contributed by Ken Alford on Nov 19, 2001

The book of Genesis starts out recording the activities of God in Creation. Some have called the Biblical account of creation a myth. I call it truth. Anything that might substitute for it, i.e., truth, can itself be considered myth. Skeptics and sc

The New Covenant Gospel Preacher

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Oct 12, 2005

This message begins by considering how Paul dealt with the tension between evangelism (Reaching the lost)and pastoral care (looking after those who are now saved)and how we might apply it to ourselves, plus an application of this long Bible passage.
