    Act Like Men: Duty

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 21, 2012
     | 6,037 views

    We are accepted into God’s Family, but we are appointed to serve. It is our duty as disciples to fulfil the will of the Master.

    “Will any one of you who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and recline at table’? Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, and dress properly, and serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’? ...read more

     | 6,580 views

    Neglecting God in the plans of life is sin.

    “Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit’— yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. ...read more

    When Love Turns To Lust

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 26, 2009
     | 8,436 views

    A young man confusing lust for love unleashes havoc on the Kingdom of David. His actions serve to caution us not to confuse lust for love.

    *2 Samuel 13:1-19* *When Love Turns to Lust* “Absalom, David’s son, had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar. And after a time Amnon, David’s son, loved her. And Amnon was so tormented that he made himself ill because of his sister Tamar, for she was a virgin, and it seemed impossible to ...read more

    Interceding For Her Children

     | 13,558 views

    Mrs. Zebedee has received a bad rap. Perhaps it is all right to ask for great things for our children--if it honours the Master.

    *Matthew 20:20-23* *Interceding for Her Children* “The mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to Him with her sons, and kneeling before Him she asked Him for something. And He said to her, ‘What do you want?’ She said to Him, ‘Say that these two sons of mine are to sit, one at Your right hand ...read more

    I Am The Bread Of Life Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 6, 2009
     | 6,018 views

    After attempting to make Jesus King, Jewish followers were astounded to be rebuked by Him. We can learn a great deal about the salvation the Master offers by studying the account provided by John.

    “When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, ‘Rabbi, when did you come here?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, you are seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. Do not labour for the food that perishes, but for the ...read more

    Spiritual Schizophrenia Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 20, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,949 views

    It is impossible to live a life characterized by blessing God while simultaneously cursing other believers. To attempt to so live is to demonstrate that one is suffering spiritual schizophrenia.

    JAMES 3:7-12 SPIRITUAL SCHIZOPHRENIA “Every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who ...read more

    Faith That Fails

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 23, 2009
     | 5,138 views

    A message that seeks to encourage believers to have faith in Christ, and not faith in faith or faith in themselves.

    JOHN 5:39-47 FAITH THAT FAILS “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life. I do not receive glory from people. But I know that you do not have the love of God ...read more

    I Am The Truth Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 7, 2010
     | 5,728 views

    When Jesus declares that He is the truth, what does that mean for us as believers? Explore the topic with me as we weigh the words of the Master.

    “Jesus said…, ‘I am … the truth… No one comes to the Father except through me.’” Seldom do we separate the triad of affirmations recorded in our text. The more usual approach is to consider them as a unit. The Master testified, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.” We intuitively ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,991 views

    The message is a study of the revelation of God as the Triune God.

    “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” [1] You have undoubtedly heard the story of the little boy who was colouring at the kitchen table. When his mother asked him what he was colouring, he informed her that he was colouring ...read more

    Things God Will Not Tell Us

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 19, 2020
     | 6,103 views

    God permits His people to think His thoughts after Him. However, our finite minds are unable to discover all that can be known of God and of His work in the lives of people.

    “The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.” [1] You should always be suspicious of the one who claims superior knowledge. Should he claim to know the deep secrets of God, RUN! ...read more

    “Blessed be the LORD, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle; he is my steadfast love and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield and he in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me. “O LORD, what is man that you regard him, or the ...read more
