According To Your Faith

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 4, 2025

Jesus moves not according to our need, but according to our trust. True faith surrenders, saying “Yes, Lord,” and receives transforming grace.

There are moments in the ministry of Jesus when His words fall like a key into the lock of the human heart—turning something, opening something, revealing something that changes everything about how we relate to Him. Matthew 9 contains one of those moments. It is only a sentence, only a breath, yet ...read more

Unity Is Oneness, Not Sameness

Contributed by Christopher Roberts on Oct 29, 2003

Jesus prays for unity in the Church that is to come. Yet, His prayer indicates He knows we will struggle. As long as we keep our focus on God we will overcome our denominational differences and find our oneness in Christ.

Ruth Bell once said, “If two people agree on everything, one of them is unnecessary” She went on to say, “If two people agree on everything, they double their chances of being wrong.” Now, Ruth Bell was not referring to the diversity of thought in the Christian church, she was instead talking ...read more

The Tale Of The Four Blood Moons

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 13, 2015

Many people have been swept away by the book regarding the "Four Blood Moon" sightings we have seen lately. Many are stirred up and anxious. What should we do with such teachings when they raise their heads? We do what they did in the church in Berea!

There has been a lot of talk about the “Four Blood Moons” which recently took place over the last two years. Most of the talk was in response to a book by John Hagee which was based on the writings of another preacher named Mark Biltz. (Quote from the FBM book website) Every heavenly ...read more

Christians Must Be Prepared To Suffer For Christ

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 3, 2019

The Prosperity movement has given Americans a wrong view of God -- that He won’t let Christians suffer. But the truth is that suffering is a vital part of Christianity. Suffering should be viewed as a blessing, a cause for rejoicing, and a sign of future reward.

Jonah The Deserter Series

Strange as it may seem it was the first book of the Bible to be translated into Chinese. The trouble with all the widespread knowledge about Jonah is that it is all ...read more

The Way Of The Cross

Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024

In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

Last week we heard about Jesus being tempted in the wilderness right after his Baptism. That’s the way it feels sometimes – you just make a decision and then things happen that immediately bring your decision into question. This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more
