Giving Obediently Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 20, 2023

Our obedience in giving equates to our love for God. We are to acknowledge God’s ownership of everything. This requires faith because we believe that God will provide our needs. We give a tithe to God and he will supply with the remaining ninety percent.

This is a very serious look at giving since the opposite of obedience to God is disobedience. There is no neutral ground between obedience to God and disobedience to God. “I the Lord do not change. So you, the descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed. 7 Ever since the time of your ancestors you ...read more

Urgent Atonement Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Mar 17, 2008

The cross is hideous. It’s not a pretty thing we hang on our walls. It’s not a fine piece of jewelry hanging from our neck. It is the most brutal instrument of death ever conceived by the cruel mind of man.

For the past few weeks, we’ve been looking at the events of the last few days of Jesus’ life on earth. With each of those events, we’ve seen a sense of urgency. Each week we have seen an example of urgency. But this morning is different. In this morning’s passage, our Lord shows a sense of ...read more

What’s So Special About This Place?

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jun 7, 2010

What’s So Special About This Place? 1) God speaks to us here. 2) God listens to us here.

It looks like a shack perched precariously on the side of a forested hill. There is no hot water so there is no place to shower or bathe. The outhouse is just a couple steps from the front door but night-time visits still require a flashlight. When Sarah first saw “the cabin,” I’m ...read more
