     | 6,634 views

    Part 9 of 10 in a series dedicated to debunking commonly held myths that we think are in the Bible but really aren't, myths that can and often do have devastating effects on our faith.

    INTRODUCTION: To begin I’m going to share a little bit of “my story,” and it’s not a part that I look back on with any amount of fondness. My first ministry experience could be defined by a single word – “Miserable” I’ll spare the details, but suffice ...read more

    Kingdom Attitudes Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 5, 2014
     | 5,874 views

    The church and New Testament doctrine are founded not only upon God’s past dealings with Israel, but also his future dealings. If you miss this, you miss much. We are a preview of God’s Kingdom on earth, and we must embrace Kingdom attitudes.

    Kingdom Attitudes (Isaiah 56:1-12) 1. I collect humor, and Jewish jokes are among my favorites. 2. It was a sweltering August day in 1937 when the Cohen brothers entered the posh Dearborn, Michigan, offices of Henry Ford, the car maker. "Mr. Ford," announced Norman Cohen, the eldest of the three. ...read more

    A look at the ineffectiveness of worry - we do it despite the fact that it brings about no positive result.

    A COMMON WORRY EXCUSE: Many people worry because “at least I’m doing something.” - Some people feel guilty if they’re not worrying. Somehow worry is a sign to them of being a good parent or friend. - They would probably begrudgingly admit that’s it’s not the ...read more

    Sabbath Means Rest

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on May 17, 2014
     | 4,796 views

    Thus, if someone truly wants to observe the Sabbath Day in modern times (New Testament era), that’s a tall order! One that I do not think anyone could keep, because as religious as the Jews were, they could not keep it (Acts 15:10).

    SABBATH MEANS REST Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Q: What happens when we operate a cellphone, tablet, ipod, etc. all day? Q: What happens when we ride a horse all day? Q: What happens when we operate an air-conditioner all day? Q: ...read more

    What The Ascension Of Jesus Meant To Him, And To Means To Us

    Contributed by David Mcnally on May 20, 2014
     | 6,169 views

    Many Christians seem to ignore the Ascension, and even seem embarrassed to talk about Jesus physically going up into the clouds, but it is a historical fact. Jesus had done everything His Father required of Him, and He is now by His side working for us.

    Acts 1:6-11 Eph 1:18-23 The Ascension 29 MAY 2014 The New Testament records how Jesus died on what we now call Good Friday and how He rose from the dead on what we now call Easter Sunday. I prefer to call it Resurrection Sunday, 1. because the word Easter is not in the Bible, and 2. because ...read more

    Eulogy for a lifelong Christian

    Facing the death of a loved one is always a mix of bitter and sweet.

     | 10,730 views

    The sermon is based on 1 Peter 4.1-11. In addition to receiving the gifts of salvation and the Spirit, God has given us the gift of TIME. As all of His gifts, we are to be good stewards and correctly use the time we have been given.
