    Jesus Is Getting Ready To Leave Series

    Contributed by Hugh W. Davidson on Apr 15, 2009
     | 6,467 views

    Our faith will outlive our lives.

    Jesus is getting ready to leave John 13:31-38 I’m sure you’ve realized that I just skipped the section on Judas which is from verses 18-30 and I did this for the simple reason that I covered this passage a while ago. So, if you weren’t here or if you just want to hear it ...read more

    david and goliath

    By any earthy standard, the outcome of this battle would be "sure thing." However, when God enters the picture the entire outcome becomes quite different because of faith. It is interesting that David chose five smooth stones from the brook when only one was needed. Why did David do this? There is ...read more

    The Arrest Of Jesus Series

     | 6,691 views

    A short intro to the person of Judas.

    The arrest of Jesus John 18: 1-11 Last week we finished a bit early, and there were a few things that I wanted to see here. Now, when we hear the name Judas today it’s synonymous with Hitler, Dracula or some perverted mass murderer. It’s like it’s the epitome ...read more

    The elder brother is the one we all dislike and to a certain degree have to identify with him.

    The elder brother Luke 15:25-32 A Sunday school teacher was telling his class the story of the Prodigal Son and after describing how the household was rejoicing over his return the teacher wondered if they were following the story and so he asked, “Who can ...read more

    The Pile Of Stones

    Contributed by Hugh W. Davidson on Apr 18, 2009
     | 8,239 views

    The place where they set up these monuments was called Gilgal and we all need a Gilgal in our lives. It’s a place where we can look back on as our point of personal surrender. It may be a church, a room or whatever. The location isn’t important but t

    The pile of stones Joshua 4:1-24 I really like the guy who prayed, “Dear God, so far today, I’ve done alright. I haven’t lost my temper, haven’t been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or over-indulgent. I’m really glad about that, but in a few minutes, I’m going to ...read more

    Body Language Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 11, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,012 views

    The Bible speaks of the church as the Body of Christ for a reason, but most believers fail to celebrate their unique place in the body.

    The ancient Romans had an aphorism that went “Mens sana in corpore sanos.” It means, “A healthy mind in a healthy body.” The ancients were quite correct that the two go together. The mind directs the body. It may do it on a subconscious or even unconscious level, but without signals from the brain, ...read more

    How Can I Live With My Handicap?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 8, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,231 views

    Does God care when we are unable to compete as others compete? Does it matter to Him when we are handicapped? A study of the life of an obscure man provides hope and instruction for each of us to look to God even when we are handicapped.

    “David said, ‘Is there still anyone left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?’ Now there was a servant of the house of Saul whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David. And the king said to him, ‘Are you Ziba?’ And he said, ‘I am your servant.’ And the ...read more

    If I Am A Man Of God

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 31, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 14,691 views

    I suppose the term "man of God" means different things to different people. However, we have the account of an individual who was called a "man of God" and commanded to respond to a king's command. Because he was a man of God, certain characteristics marked his life.

    “After the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel. “Now Ahaziah fell through the lattice in his upper chamber in Samaria, and lay sick; so he sent messengers, telling them, ‘Go, inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this sickness.’ But the angel of the LORD ...read more

    The Word of Life is 1) Unchangeable (1 John 1:1a), 2) Historical (1 John 1:1b–2a), 3) Communicable (1 John 1:2b–3a), 4) Relational (1 John 1:3b), and 5) Joyful (1 John 1:4).

    We live in an era that looks with suspicion on any type of certainty or conviction about the truth. Our society has abandoned the idea of absolutes, choosing instead to arbitrarily grant equal validity to every opinion and philosophical musing. Sadly, today’s church, influenced by the ...read more
