This Is The Day Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

There is little we can give to God that is not a returning to Him of what He has already given to us. Time and substance are God's gifts to us. Thanksgiving, however, is a product of our own will, and to give God thanks is to give something that is uniquely our own.

Return To God Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 13, 2019

The first call of prophet Zechariah was a call not to repeat the mistake of their forefathers and return to God while they still can. Now that they have returned to their homeland, they are to stay faithful to God.

Zechariah is not an easy book to read and understand, but we will try and learn together over these few months. God has important words for His people. • It’s difficult because God speaks not only to the present situation in Judah (with the people now engaging in rebuilding the Temple) but also ...read more

Game Of Thrones - Pt. 2 - Seedy Series

Contributed by Steve Ely on Aug 7, 2016

We talk, sing, and pray using the language of the Kingdom . . . words like Lord, King, and sovereign. However, citizenship in a democracy keeps us from understanding the throne.

Game of Thrones Pt. 2 - Seedy Introduction After 1 year we have finally come to the final battle in the attack on the 5 principalities that I identified for us. We have fought isolation, poverty, hopelessness and apathy. Now we square off against compartmentalism. Compartmentalism is pervasive ...read more

The Mother Of Us All Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

We need both a mother and father for our physical life, but we never consider that we need both also for our spiritual life. If God is our Father, as believers, who then is our mother?

This statement will hold true for much of what is going to be said from pulpits across the land about motherhood. It will be highly exaggerated because it will be unrealistic about ...read more

The River Leading To The Tree Of Life

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 26, 2021

Sometimes I feel like we are a generation endlessly staring at the screen, watching movies and tv shows, and series, applauding at the entertainment.

Suddenly the manager comes forward. He apologizes for the interruption, but the theater is on fire, and he begs ...read more

No Parole, No Appeal, No Hope: The Great White Throne Judgment Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 19, 2020

You do not end up as mere food for worms and fertilizer for flowers in a forgotten grave. You will be in one of two places after you take your last breath, and you will face the Sovereign LORD, either as Savior or Judge. Where do you stand on that fact?

The Holy Bible affirms that there are ONLY two places where your soul can go after death. Either you will be in heaven with God the Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the redeemed of all history, or in hell with the devil, his angels, and the wicked of all history, to be ...read more

God Has A Plan Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 6, 2019

We see the remarkable providence of God in this chapter. Everything happens according to God's way and time to accomplish His purpose. No one can plan for this. It is humanly impossible to plan for it. Only God could have done it.

We are going to see the remarkable work of God’s providence today. • In chapter 6 the tables are turned and evil is overcome by good. • And it happened almost imperceptibly, without us noticing it was coming or expecting it to turn out this way. • Let’s read the entire chapter – Esther ...read more
