  • Changing Jesus, And Muhammad's Personal Problems Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Aug 27, 2015
     | 2,816 views

    Muhammad does not claim to be a perfect man, and the Koran confirms that for us. Also see Muhammad's attempt to pull Jesus down, and the changes in the Gospel story that he (or his "angel" ) has manufactured.

    Lesson 29, Muhammad, Show Us Proof! Today we cover suras 14-17 . Sura 14 is called "Abraham" but only mentions the patriarch at the end, as the author of a prayer that, per the Bible, he never prayed. The chapter opens up with great promise, describing Koran as a book "we have sent down to you ...read more

    1. Of Christian Foundations Has the foundation for the Christian faith been laid once for all, or do we look for new foundations to be poured in every generation? To ask such a thing is to answer it. The idea of digging up the old foundation of a building every forty years, so as to lay a new one ...read more

    If nonviolence is indeed the teaching of Jesus in the New Testament, we would expect to find it in the earliest writings of Christians including and after the apostles and prophets of the Lord. What do we find?

  • Does The Bible Teach Meditation And Guided Imagery

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 12, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 974 views

    There is a resurgence of the word 'meditate' being used in churches today about personal devotional prayer as a way to draw closer to God as a person contemplates His divine attributes.

    Many 'techniques' have risen to help people along the path of daily sanctification by learning how to pray and worship, which has resulted in something called contemplative spirituality, also known as meditation, guided imagery, centering, or listening prayer, using imagination and ...read more

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 28, 2021
     | 1,840 views

    The world may be against us. It most certainly is. But it isn't so bad. God is with us. Of course it's better to be with God. Hopefully we can keep those one in the same. And mainly by not keeping anything, but allowing God to do the "keeping."

    Proverb 29:27 The righteous despise the unjust; the wicked despise the godly. The dichotomy mentioned is Proverb 29:27 is being played out in our culture today. Jesus said the world will hate you. But take heart, I have overcome the world. The world may be against us. It most certainly is. ...read more

    Today we have the privilege of working through Ephesians 2:11-22. Let's turn there, and read just the first word. "Therefore." What "therefore" signals, is that Paul is going to draw some conclusions, and an application, from everything he's just said. But it's ...read more

  • Taking God For Granted

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 27, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 156 views

    Are we truly devoted to God whole heartedly no matter what? Or are we only Christianity to see what's in it for us? Are we taking God for granted or are we humble before him? Today, I want us to search our souls and our hearts for the answers to these questions as we dive into the Gospel.

    The problem with our world today is not with a God who has never failed and is faithful from generation to generation. The problem in the world today are the hearts of evil men who take God for granted. And today, we turn to Psalms 78, and we see a chapter in Israel's history in which, time ...read more

    God’s unwavering love and acceptance in Christ frees us from fear, guilt, and shame, empowering us to live confidently knowing He is always for us.

    If you could hear heaven this morning, I think you’d hear a kind voice carrying across the chaos: I am for you. Not a whisper of wishful thinking, but the thunder of a Father’s heart.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 301 views

    The sermon emphasizes steadfast obedience to God amid cultural pressures, highlighting how consistent faithfulness and convictions can leave a lasting legacy and honor God.

    Some families pass down recipes, some pass down stories, some pass down the old pocketknife with a smooth handle and a history. The Rechabites passed down a way to walk with God. Simple. Steady. Set like wet cement that hardened into holy habit. And in a world that shifts and shouts and sells ...read more

    based on 79 ratings
     | 46,447 views

    The first myth is that the Bible is too confusing to read. In verses 1-8, we’ll see that the Bible, instead of being confusing, is actually a book that you and I can comprehend ­ You can understand it!

    First in the series "Meet the Cast." Mary’s life as we see her through scripture and through this amazing film, teaches us a great deal about how to trust God in times of crisis.

    In Mel Gibson’s movie “The Passion of the Christ” we are introduced to the story of Jesus of Nazareth’s last 12 hours in a very vivid, graphic and brutally honest way. For many of us who have devoted our lives to sharing the gospel, this was, in some way, vindication. Because no matter how much ...read more
