What Happens When The Church Prays! Prayer Invites Divine Intervention Series

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 26, 2023

One of the most amazing privileges of believers is access to God through prayer. We all face trials and tribulations but praying will help us overcome. Why? Because a praying saint can lay down in trouble and wake up to a miracle. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

Betrayal Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 30, 2012

Beginning in Mark 14:43 we shift from Jesus being the source of the action to Him being acted upon by others. He becomes very passive except at a few key moments, on His way to the cross. In a way, what we see in this portion of Mark 14 is the failure of mankind. In several key ways, man abandons ...read more

Don’t Be Late!

Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 11, 2015

Nicodemus, a Pharisee, has come to Jesus at night. He is on a mission—a personal one it seems. He has come to Jesus in an attempt to figure Him out. He has come to the conclusion that Jesus cannot do what He does unless He has come from God.
