    the preaching of Christ's Cross should be at the center of our message.

    Nothing But Jesus Crucified I Corinthians 2:1-16 In the Appalachians where I live, many of the ministers and churches have an aversion to book learning, especially when it comes to the Bible.

    A Brief Glimpse Of Heaven

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 13, 2015

     | 6,625 views

    In order for us to understand the resurrection, we have to expand our ideas about who and what God is and what we can do. We can’t limit God with our own limited human reasoning. God continually surprises us. The future he has planned for us is glorious.

    Have you ever wondered about what life will be like in heaven after we die? If so, you’ll be interested in what Jesus has to say about the subject in the passage from Luke 20:27-38. The Sadducees’ question about the resurrection was a ridiculous one because the Sadducees did not ...read more

    In the familiar story of Jesus walking on the water, we find good news in the fact that it is Jesus who is the key actor and Lord of all.

    Psychologists tell us that when we are presented with an event that is perceived as stressful or frightening, we tend to behave in one of two ways—fight or flight. That means that we either tend to gird our loins (to use a Biblical phrase), stare down, and attack that which is scaring us OR we run ...read more
