Thyatira: Corrupted By Compromise

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 26, 2020

The Only Way Out Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 30, 2021

Be Accountable And Responsible For One Another.

The Authority Of Jesus: An Exposition Of Mark 1:21-28

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Jan 24, 2021

You Might Need An Awe Adjustment Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jul 17, 2020

Make no mistake about it, God is gracious and will give me as many do-overs as I need, but I want to limit them because I know every time I drift away from God, it hurts Him, and it hurts me, I suffer consequences too. So, I want to keep the course. I want to keep the faith.

God's Errands

Contributed by Terry Spriestersbach on Jun 14, 2021

Henry Ward Beecher wrote, “Difficulties are God’s errands and when we are sent upon them, we should esteem it a proof of God’s confidence.”

We live our lives on a battlefield. We are constantly in battle against the devil and his fallen angels. But God had equipped us with the armor to protect ourselves and defend His name.
