    Jesus Is Extraordinary, How Do We Respond? Series

    Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Mar 1, 2014
     | 6,253 views

    Jesus calms the storm on the Lake. This is no ordinary thing, it is extraordinary. How will the disciples react and why did they react the way they did during the storm? From now on how will we react?

    Jesus is extraordinary, how do we respond? Luke 8:22-25 He is Lord over all of nature and creation. The Message paraphrase of the Bible tells it this way. 22-24 One day he and his disciples got in a boat. “Let’s cross the lake,” he said. And off they went. It was smooth ...read more

     | 4,321 views

    A study of the danger posed when experts assume control over a society, over a community, or over a church. The message is a call to participatory Christianity.

    “Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, ‘The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat, so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice. They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people’s shoulders, but they ...read more

    "but I Want To Fight Back!"

    Contributed by Randall Long on Apr 1, 2019
     | 3,508 views

    Instead of fighting back when someone does us wrong, we can witness that He is greater than whatever has been taken from us.

    The teaching in today's passage is hard for the average person to swallow. When I first read it as a child, I flat-out told Jesus He was wrong. Adolescence refined me; in high school I remarked that this was a lovely thought, but that it just wouldn't work in the real world. Oddly ...read more

    David Builds An Altar Where Abraham Offered Up Isaac: The Future Site Of Solomon's Temple Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Nov 13, 2023
     | 1,297 views

    David builds an altar at the exact same place that hundreds of years earlier, Abraham came, and built an altar there as well when he was told to do so by God.

    Here we find the last chapter of 2nd Samuel, the very last overview of the life of David and all that was done in the name of the Lord. King David had done so many great things, from defeating Goliath, to conquering enemy nations, to building up the nation economically and militarily. He had made ...read more

    The Limitless Love Of God

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Jun 7, 2022
     | 2,421 views

    How should we respond to those who have radical beliefs and lifestyles contrary to our beliefs? The temptation is to counter their viciousness and label them as an enemy. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives us a model for the attitude that we are to have when faced with divisive social issues.

    If not careful, as we study the Bible, we will pick and choose passages that support certain points of view or principles to which we cling. Yet those who first heard what has become known as the Sermon on the Mount had no idea what Jesus was about to say. They understood the moralism of their day, ...read more
