Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 19, 2025

Jeremiah is faced with the scene of destruction all around and he describes different events and how they affected people and material things. When people turn from God, the inevitable must happen, and that is God’s judgement upon the existing order.

Sermon # 4 - Chosen To Be Royalty Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 17, 2024

A Reason To Party Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 26, 2010

It’s an odd phenomena: people stealing the baby Jesus from Nativity scenes. It’s called the "Stolen Baby Jesus Syndrome." Why would people do that, and what does it tell us about mankind and God?

The third time around they put a GPS inside and traced the thief to her home. But the baby Jesus doesn’t have to be expensive. In 2008, in ...read more
