Yom Kippur - Our Judeo-Christian Heritage Series

Contributed by William Akehurst on Oct 1, 2025

Yom Kippur is GOD’s appointed holy day for atonement, repentance, and spiritual renewal, where we acknowledge our sins, receive forgiveness, and experience reconciliation with HIM to walk renewed in HIS Mercy. And it points to YESHUA/JESUS as the ultimate sacrifice, fulfilling the Temple sacraments.

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 19, 2025

We open up some very important verses near the end of the letter to the Laodicean church, and there is plenty for us to learn. Who responds to the knocking of Revelation 3:20? What about the discipline of the Lord in Revelation 3:19? How do we become the overcomers of Revelation 3:21?

The God Bod

Contributed by Joel Pankow on Dec 18, 2024

Hearing Versus Listening

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 30, 2024

Today we are going back to the OT days of Nehemiah to see how the people of that day listened or just heard God's Word. God has brought us here today, not just to hear a sermon, but to listen as God speaks to our heart.

When you come to a service like this or attend a Bible study class, do you just hear what is said or do you listen? Is there a difference? For most of us listening is our most frequently used communication skill. Listening is a very important part of communication. One study points out that ...read more

Cedar, Hyssop, And National Security

Contributed by David Western on Nov 19, 2025

Just as a general once showed me a car I thought was spotless still carried an odor, Leviticus 14 reminds us that God sees what we cannot—and through cedar, hyssop, and scarlet, He reveals the only cleansing that reaches the heart.

“Get Me a Car That Doesn’t Stink”** When I was a captain at the Air Force Academy, I had the honor—and the anxiety—of escorting General Hornburg, the ACC Commander, during a visit for Corona. That was when all the generals came together for a high-level meeting, and it was the kind of event where ...read more

Selective Memory Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 27, 2003

We use selective memory either to remember only pleasant things (denial) or only negative things (pessimism). God’s memory is an occasion of grace, for which we can be grateful.

The longer we live, the more there is to remember. And yet the more we remember, the more we forget as well. Isn’t that ironic? The longer we live, the more there is to remember. And yet the more we remember, the more we forget as well. That could be due to several things. That could be ...read more

However murderous your thoughts, intentions or even actions have been there is hope for your future because Jesus is willing to take the rap for your crime.
