  • "congratulations! It's A Savior!" Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 25, 2021
     | 3,046 views

    God continues to look for women and men like Mary and Joseph. People who will pursue obedience, whatever the cost. People who will trust God – even though the outcome seems unsure. God continues to raise up people for His purposes.

    When I first proposed doing this, I know that it struck a lot of you … well, probably all of you … as something odd … out of the ordinary. When it came time, you weren’t sure what to do. Do we put up our traditional Christmas decorations? And, again, I’m sure that you found my answer a bit odd … ...read more

  • It’s Not Are We Worthy...

    It’s not are we worthy – but will we accept Gods will and tasks for us?

    When God chose Mary to be the mother of Jesus, her only observable qualifications were traits like obedience, courage, faith, and moral purity. Such qualities are often overlooked or even belittled by society, but they equipped Mary for God’s service. Mary’s home town of Nazareth was remarkably ...read more

    Jesus' teaching on discipleship in Luke 9:23-27 shows us what is involved in being a disciple of Jesus.

    Scripture We have come to what one commentator called “a turning point in Luke’s Gospel.” In the first part of his Gospel, Luke demonstrated the identity of Jesus. Then Peter, on behalf of the twelve disciples, confessed Jesus as the Christ (9:18-20). From this point on now Luke ...read more

    We often think of Jesus as being the Prince of Peace. So what did He mean when He said He came to bring a sword?

    Let me ask you something… when you think about Jesus, what are some characteristics that come to mind? PARTICIPATION (Loving, gentle, kind, forgiving…) That’s the Jesus most of us think about. That’s the Lord and God we want to know… one who’s compassionate, caring, understanding, generous. And ...read more

    Jesus grew up in Nazareth and he was forever known as "Jesus of Nazareth". But what was it about this city that would have formed His teachings and what can we learn from this region? This was the 2nd in my series of lessons telling of my trip to Israel.

    (Slide of our tour bus) This is a picture of our tour bus. It’s a Mercedes Benz and it seemed that every tour company in Israel had one just like it. The bus was very comfortable and roomy. After spending a couple of nights at Bethlehem we traveled by this bus down to Masada. Masada ...read more

  • From Shame To Glory Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 16, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,681 views

    Before Jesus was crucified, the cross was a symbol of suffering and shame. After Jesus’ resurrection, the Disciples and the whole world came to see and understand the cross in a whole new way. It became a symbol of hope, new life, and victory.

    The great Bible commentator William Barclay described a tragic event that took place early in young Jesus’ life, when Jesus was somewhere around the age of 10 or 11. A zealot by the name of Judas the Galilean led a rebellion against Rome. He raided the Roman armory at Sepphoris, Mary’s hometown, ...read more

  • The Victory In Jesus Part 1: Gethsemane Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Apr 8, 2019
     | 5,230 views

    Over the years I have paid little attention to Gethsemane other than it was where Jesus prayed before his arrest. However, Gethsemane is where the spiritual victory was won. If it had not been for what happened in Gethsemane, there might not have been a crucifixion or a resurrection.

    1. Survey: 85% of Americans say they pray – some a lot, some little. In fact, 20% of self-proclaimed atheists and agnostics claim to pray. There is a source of strength in prayer. We want to take a look at the key place of prayer for Jesus, Gethsemane. 2. An Overview to Gethsemane a. Jesus and ...read more

  • Antipas: The Perverse And Putrid Puppet Ruler Of Galilee Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 12, 2021
     | 2,414 views

    The story of Herod Antipas is one of treachery, murder, lust, cowardice, deceit, and perversion. He was responsible for the murder of John the Baptist and ridiculed Jesus on the day of His execution. The family of Herod had no redeeming qualities and are examples of unredeemed humanity.

    It would make sense to say that the ministry of the Lord Jesus was attracting a great deal of attention and some scrutiny by virtue of His wondrous teachings, His compassion to all who came to Him in faith and trust, the way He handled the criticisms and pettiness of the Pharisees, His ability ...read more

  • How To Handle The Unexpected Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 18, 2018
     | 9,130 views

    Mary serves as an example of how to handle life when life doesn't go as expected--a great example. We all experience this sort of thing, and we find out--life doens't go as expected all the time. How would God have us respond?

    The Divine Advent(ure) How to Handle the Unexpected Luke 1:26-56 Have you ever noticed how life never seems to going exactly, or sometimes, even close to your plans? One of my favorite quotes is this one, apparently from an unbeliever: “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans.” And ...read more
