     | 7,152 views

    Death to life - what an extreme! In this passage Paul talks about the amazing thing God did for us through Christ for those who follow Jesus - He took us from one extreme to another - from death to life!

    Ephesians 2:1-10 Think of extremes. What extremes can you think of? Perhaps of drought and flood at the moment. A few years ago, in 2004, a geographer called Nick Middleton made a series of documentaries titled Going to extremes. During these documentaries, he visited the hottest, coldest, ...read more

    Dealing with the death of Lazarus, Jesus performed one of His greatest miracles. While meeting a desperate and immediate need through miraculous power, Jesus also revealed an eternal truth - the dead in Christ never die! He is the Resurrection and Life.

    The Resurrection and Life John 11: 17-27 Our text today is likely a familiar account for most of us. It deals with a very difficult moment in the lives of those who were very close to Jesus. As the Lord ministered in the area of Jerusalem, He often visited the home of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus, ...read more

    When non-Christians were asked what is their biggest barrier to faith, the number one answer among Americans was the following, “I have a hard time believing a good God would allow so much evil or suffering in the world.”

    Today, we conclude a four-week look at one of the most interesting people in history – the man named Job. Job is a really good man. God even calls him, “…a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil …”(Job 1:8). He’s so good in fact, that God tells Ezekiel years later: ...read more

    God is taking away Americas blessings one by one because of our disobediences and turning our backs on Him.

    In the Paths of Life, Ask Directions. Proverbs 3:1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: 2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. 3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: ...read more

    One Thing I Do

    Paul had one great aim and purpose of life. To this singleness of purpose he owed his exemplary godliness and his uncommon success as a minister.

    We have here a very personal letter written by the Apostle Paul. What I mean by that is simply that Paul shares a lot of himself in this letter. He shares with us his thoughts and attitudes as he talks about his past and present circumstances and the hopes he embraces concerning his future. I ...read more

    The theme of this letter is "Christian Unity." Paul had established many churches, and watched them grow, so he realized that without unity, nothing else really matters.

    The Book of Ephesians By: Tom Lowe Date: 8/3/17 Lesson 16: Maintaining the Unity (Ephesians 4:1-6) Ephesians 4:1-6 (KJV) 1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all ...read more

    What causes ordinary people to take risks?

    The life line between Paul and God was the Spirit of God and his spirit. In this on-going sanctification process, Paul relied upon the Spirit of God to minister to his spirit, thus the comment in verse nine, whom I serve with my spirit.

    Series Title: Romans – The Line in the Sand Message Title: The Life Line 9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; When I was just a youngster in the military, I had the occasion, because of my ...read more

    Faith without risk is a contradiction - This is part 2 of a 3 part series on faith using the backdrop of Abraham and Isaac to communicate trust, risk, and belief in matters of faith.

    Baby Steps Part 2 RISK Last week we began a journey of baby steps… taking one step at a time to find true faith. What is faith?

    This was my first funeral service. It is an illustration of how one person can affect many lives.

    It’s A Wonderful Life” In 1946, Frank Capra made a low-budget movie called “It’s A Wonderful Life”. This movie told the story of a man who spent his life in a small town, never really realizing his dream. His dream was to travel the world and get away from the small town. His dreams were always put ...read more

    Sometimes telling people about Christ seems like the most dangerous risk we can take. Pastor John Bishop challenges you to allow God to interrupt your life for the cause of Christ.

    You know, when I see statistics about the number of people that die everyday; when I see those numbers I just wonder; what would God do if we would just see the reality of people that we know right now, that maybe next week, or maybe next month, or maybe next year, that we may not ever have the ...read more
