    Jonathan Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,563 views

    In an era of cancel culture and the quest to remain in power at all cost, the story of Jonathan is worth knowing about.

    November 26, 2022 We know virtually nothing about Jonathan. He was the oldest son of Saul and Ahinoam and next in line for the throne of Israel. The Bible does not tell us if he was married, but we are told that he had a son, Mephibosheth, who was 5 years old when Jonathen was killed on Mt. ...read more

    We are chosen by God to be His special people, set apart to proclaim His goodness to those in darkness.

    Peter says we're chosen by God, and we're His. That's a promise from way back that still counts today. You're not just some random kid; you're God's kid. You're not just some random kid; you're God's kid. Peter dares us to live like we mean it. Actions speak louder than words, and people are ...read more

    Contributed by Anthony (Tony) Charles on Aug 17, 2025
     | 311 views

    Jesus promised believers would do greater works than He did, but instead of operating in God's power, we've substituted excuses for the supernatural works we're called to perform.

    GREATER WORKS or GREAT EXCUSES Text: John 14:12 – “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” Mark 16:17-18 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they ...read more

    Christians have a blessed hope on which they can govern their lives by, Jesus is returning and He expects them to be about their assigned task when He comes back.

    Laodicea: Knock, Knock! Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Feb 14, 2021
     | 4,467 views

    Becoming a tepid or lukewarm church doesn’t take any effort at all … none. All we have to do is sit in the pews, sing the same old hymns, hear the same old sermons over and over again, and eventually you’ll end up with a tepid church full of lukewarm Christians.

    The sun showed them no mercy. Directly overhead, it blazed and beat down on them. They were tired and hungry and very thirsty, so the sight of a well … even a Samaritan well … was a more-than-welcome sight. Jesus and the Disciples didn’t have a jar or a bucket with them, so they had no way to ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,008 views

    Ever wished you could have prevented a great tragedy? Just as there are great physical tragedies with lasting consequence, so there are great spiritual tragedies with eternal consequence. The Apostle Paul seeks to prevent a great spiritual tragedy in the fledgling church at Corinth, Greece.

    How many of you here have been associated with a preventable tragedy? What I'm talking about here are bad things that happened to people you knew or know which could have been prevented. These bad things would not have happened if someone hadn't been ignorant or naïve, or ...read more
