    The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ: A Refresher Course In Evidence

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 10, 2023
     | 1,569 views

    The Scriptures tell of the event of the resurrection of Jesus Christ as being an undeniable historical fact with eyewitness and secondary evidence to back it that would be admissible in any objective court of law. This is no case of wishful thinking, but the conclusion of a promise kept.

    If we were to present the case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ in a court of law, we would have to first refute the notion or belief that this was nothing more than "faith" on the part of the apostles and all who have followed Him throughout history. I have pointed out in a recent ...read more

    Anna, The Prophetess [part 2] Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 8, 2022
     | 2,583 views

    As a prophetess, Anna receives insight into things that typically remain hidden to ordinary people; she recognizes this child and tells of his significance to selected people in Jerusalem.

    Regarding Anna, Luke provides three terse verses that manage to vividly depict her as a woman deserving the honor bestowed on the elderly in the ancient Mediterranean world (v. 36-38). She could well serve as the Bible's example of a remarkable woman and mother. The appositive prophetess heads ...read more

    Grief is hard and we practical need help to work through it.

    Last week we began what I hope will be a regular podcast on the topic of grief. Grief is a reality and will generally affect all of us at some time or another. Grief is not limited to the death of a loved one. We grieve the loss of many things such as our dreams when they are shattered; the loss of ...read more

    The Value Of Gratefulness

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Oct 8, 2022
     | 4,005 views

    The value of living in a perpetual state of gratefulness is that it always leads us deeper in faith and closer to Jesus.

    No Scripture Verses Can Be Interpreted Privately

    To show that GOD does not want us to interpret the bible privately for our own sole purpose but according to His own purpose with His HOLY SPIRIT interpreting it for us.

    I. EXORDIUM: Are you interpreting the bible privately?

    Inheritance Or Identity?

    Contributed by Jay Winters on Jul 7, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,771 views

    The parable of the Good Samaritan is a parable about identity couched in the lawyer's question about inheritance. Both are ours in Christ, but one is more important than the other.

    Inheritance or identity? The parable of the Good Samaritan is one of those passages that we could probably all recite from memory if we had to. We know what happens - a man is traveling along the road, he is ambushed, left for dead, and then two religious guys are too busy or otherwise concerned ...read more

    Standing in front of the empty tomb, Jesus looks us in the eye and gives us the clearest possible statement of who He is. We need to listen.

    The Truest Meaning Of Christmas

    Contributed by Jerry Stephens on Dec 3, 2014
     | 4,286 views

    At one time or another, most of us have had the experience of being on the outside looking in. More than anything else, for me Christmas is a celebration of inclusion and acceptance and restoration.

    Of all the “true meanings of Christmas,” this is perhaps the truest. When I was a boy, my relatively non-religious family had a Christmas Eve tradition. We’d have a formal, dress-up dinner, and then we’d sit together to talk, tell stories and perhaps read the Christmas ...read more
