    There are lots of people in the world that we normally try to avoid. These were the very people that Jesus sought to reach

    Freaks, Weirdoes and Oddballs Matthew 8:1-13 You may find the title of today’s message a bit peculiar but the bottom line is that the people that we choose to avoid can fall into this category.

    "a Carnival Of Corruption" Lent 3

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Feb 28, 2024
     | 1,120 views

    Carnival time is often a time of chaos. Jesus created chaos because of the corruption in the Jerusalem temple. The cleansing of the temple is the "judgement" of God against commercial robbery of the poor by the religious establishment. Jesus is the replacement.

    In Jesus Holy Name Lent III March 5, 2024 Text: John 2:19-20 Redeemer “A Carnival of Corruption” Carnival time in New Orleans or Brazil always shows a crush of humanity going crazy. We have seen videos of “Smash ...read more

    Learn to tell the difference between real spiritual power and fake power. Paul tells us that being impressive doesn’t mean you are effective. Learn too how to take your very thoughts captive.

    Getting The Sabbath Right Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Jan 29, 2021
     | 3,173 views

    Practicing the Sabbath religiously is still something that is common in certain faith families, but I think mostly we ignore the idea. Getting the Sabbath right is essential for our mental, spiritual, and physical well being.

    Getting the Sabbath Right     Luke 6:1-11 Introduction As a young Christian I was taught that all of the Ten Commands had been repeated and taught by Jesus - except one. Keeping the Sabbath day holy. When I preached out in the country during my Bible college days I ...read more

     | 4,312 views

    The folly of false religions. Only fullness and freedom are found in Christ.

    The setting is the front of a small church. The pastor says from the pulpit, ‘I’ve misplaced my sermon notes, so I’m just going to read from this devotional—if I can find it here. While I look, maybe the choir can lead us in a hymn’. He glances at the choir which has one person.   The choir ...read more

    Give And Take

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 26, 2023
     | 1,504 views

    Givers trust in God, rather than in themselves; they are focused outward. Takers have not learned to trust in God and focus on their own needs.

    Anybody remember the televangelist scandals of the 80’s? Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker, Oral Roberts and his highly publicized plea for - what was it, $8 million? - to keep God from striking him dead. Remember the uproar in all the secular news media and the shame felt by so many evangelicals at being ...read more

    All religious books claim to be the word of God, but prophecy sets the Bible apart as having God’s seal of authentication. This section focuses on the measure of a prophet and the accuracy of scripture.

    Accuracy of Prophecy (Part 1 of 6) Prophecy is an integral part of scripture from Genesis to Revelation. It is prophecy that sets the Bible apart from all world religions.
