Faith In The 21st Century: The Seven Key Aspects Of Faith

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 28, 2021

Faith is something that sets the Christian apart from the world. The Christian believes in a God unseen. The Christian believes differently from the world. The people of the world don't think in terms of belief.

"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible." Hebrews ...read more

Contributed by Tim Smith on Feb 19, 2012

Being a mother can be a costly thing. But following the call of God to be a mother of the Savior can be a costly thing as well. As Christians, sometimes, we tend to sanitize the Christmas story. We think of it as a heartwarming story of a young mother giv

Easter And The Savior Of Today

Contributed by David Taylor on Apr 26, 2003

Many think of the resurrection as an event from the past that just gives us a hope of the future. It is so much more than that, and it is relevant to us in our daily lives.

It is amazing how the unpredictable can terrify us. When things seem to be unsure, or we can’t possibly explain something, fear seems to set in. Most parents know what it is like to be terrified. Our children can come out with some of the most alarming, humiliating, or shocking things, all done ...read more

Praise God For Mothers

Contributed by Bruce Landry on May 11, 2002

A tribute to the Godly Mother’s which God places in our lives. The Love of a mother is the closest thing that I can think of to a worldly view of "Agape" love of God.

Praise God for Mother’s I tell you when I call home I so look forward to the voice of my mother. I love my dad, but I do love to talk and spend time with my mother. Why is this so? I know that with certainty the love of a mother for a child far surpasses what is common in our world and ...read more

Music affects you more than you think, it affects your mind, your body and your spiritual life. Is the music you are listening to damaging your soul?

Music is a part of everyone¡¦s life. It is a language that is universal. It has the power to cheer us up, make us sad, make us laugh, and make us cry. Human emotions are a wonderful gift from God that can enhance the life of an individual. Unfortunately at times people in positions of ...read more

3 Strikes And You're Out!

A Palm Sunday message that relates the fact as a Christian we would rather think of the cute and safe vision of a babe in the manger rather then the gruesome and brutal death that Jesus suffered.

Have You Lost Your Mind

Meeting Our Sins Again

Contributed by Ed Wood on May 31, 2007

You can sin and think God has forgotten all about it, but someday you’ll be forced to “meet them again” and pay the price He demands.

MEETING OUR SINS AGAIN Genesis 42:21 INTRO: Many people today have reversed their thinking about God. Once they thought of Him as almighty and just, a God who punished sin.

Jesus - Little Interest In Personal Comfort Series

Contributed by Dale Harlow on Mar 8, 2007

Many Christians today are guilty of thinking that Jesus wants us to be comfortable. Our comfort, at least in this life, is not very high on his list of what he wants for us.

It has been about 3 years that Jesus has been working with the disciples. They have heard some teaching that they understood, and some that they didn’t. They have seen Jesus do some incredible things. They believe with all of their being that he is the Messiah. But what they believe of the ...read more
