Cults Series

Contributed by Dennis King on Oct 5, 2022

Just like a good shepherd who leads his sheep to rest, God will give us rest and provide for us.

INTRODUCTION • What picture comes to mind when you think of rest? • Maybe it's a beach, a hammock by a cabin in the woods, or lying in a meadow next to a bubbling brook. • No matter the scene, we have pictures and images that help us imagine what rest looks like. • People are desperate to ...read more

Lot – Part 6 – A Lot Of Trouble For God – For Abraham – And For Himself – Genesis 19 Lot’s Reprobate And Fallen Corrupt Nature - Incest Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 14, 2022

One of the most difficult passages in the bible - Lot and his daughters commit incest, and Lot is drunk. All horrible sensuality on display. Then I look at why the New Testament calls Lot righteous, which thing I can not see, but the opposite I do see.

LOT – PART 6 – A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR GOD – FOR ABRAHAM – AND FOR HIMSELF – GENESIS 19 LOT’S REPROBATE AND FALLEN CORRUPT NATURE - INCEST THE INCESTUOUS ACCOUNT – GENESIS 19 VERSES 30 - 38 This is the last message in the series on Lot.

Proclaiming Jesus Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 22, 2017

When you obey God the hosts of heaven stand at attention, ready to aid you in your righteous endeavor; the Spirit of God comes along side to help; Jesus adds His “Amen” to your prayers, and our heavenly Father moves creation to work on your behalf.

Colossians 1:28 He [Jesus] is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ. 29 To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.

Dwelling In The Secret Place

Contributed by Walter Thomas on Apr 14, 2020

In times of pandemic, CV-19, fear and confusion, we look to anyone with answers to our questions and solutions to our problems. What should the Righteous do in times of helplessness and consternation? David, the Psalmist, gives us a good answer to that question in Psalms 91:1-16.

Zacchaeus

Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Sep 7, 2019

Every time I read the gospels recounting of Jesus ministry I am amazed at how every turn, route or path Jesus took was a planned season for someone to encounter him. Jesus entered and passed through Jerico and this time it was Zacchaeus season of visitation.

Luke 19 King James Version (KJV) 19 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. 2 And, behold, there was a man named Zaccheaus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. 4 ...read more

Healing Church - Helping Others Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 8, 2023

A church that brings healing accepts people “as is” and forgives people’s flaws but provides means of seeing people delivered and set free from their addictions. A Church that heals strictly follows the path of dealing with others with love and truth.

From Anxiety To Acceptance Series
