An Unconventional Birth Day Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on Mar 17, 2011

A New Day That Dawned

Contributed by Rodney Kelley on Aug 25, 2010

Between Malachi and Matthew there were 400 years of silence, but, the Messiah was coming and a new day was dawning.

Intro. We live in a day that in many ways, God appears silent. He is not, but we are seeing a digression of all things Godly! The wicked seem loud and seek to silence those that love God.

Hope In The Last Days Series

Contributed by Patrick Nix on Oct 22, 2010

People don’t wear parachutes because they are comfortable, they wear them for security. So many Christians today have ditched their parachute because it didn’t bring them happiness on the flight of life. God is not near as interested in pacifying or pleas

So much of what we call hope is temporary. It is fleeting. At most, it lasts in this life only. Paul said (1 Cor. 15:19) that if Christ brings a temporary hope only, we are the most miserable of men on the planet. I would agree. Most people don’t wear parachutes because they are ...read more

May Day Mayday

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 11, 2010

We are called to turn the world upside down, as revolutionaries. But our energies dissipate and we become frightened. Let us look to the one who did not flinch from His mission.

The winter of 1780 and 1781 had looked bleak indeed for the American cause. If the English control of the seas continued; if the French did not move more decisively to help; if the supply arsenals could not be stocked and if the men did not keep their courage, all would be lost. Even General ...read more
