    A warning to our youth and a charge to our parents: the liar is speaking! Do not listen to him. Hear the Word of the Lord!

    Can you think of some faith disturbing experiences you have had since becoming a Christian? Some things that shake faith are sudden. But by far the most common faith destroyer is a long term acid that dissolves faith away a layer at a time until finally faith is so weak it becomes useless and ...read more

     | 4,009 views

    Moses was God's man in God's place but his timing was not always on target.

    1. The metaphor of the Olympic Games of Rome is key to the NT writers a. In the Revelation, John (and us) declares that the games of the emperor were not about Domitian but about God and Jesus at work in history b. Think of the ways he could have said to the world that Jesus is his son; until the ...read more

     | 6,106 views

    To “change seats” when it comes to our relationship with the Lord requires us to give up trying to “fly” our own lives and allow Jesus to set our course.

When we began several weeks ago we saw that the key to unity within the Body of Christ is love. That is why Paul said in Colossians 3:14—“Above all, put on love—the perfect bond of ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,567 views

    There is nothing so fulfilling as good timing, nothing so embarassing as bad timing. Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem was wonderful for some, judgment time for others. What time is it for us? (MLK assassination anniversary)

    There is nothing quite so fulfilling as good timing. And nothing quite so embarrassing as bad timing. They say that the secret in being a comedian is good timing. Well, the secret in living is good timing. Quite a few years ago, a young lady in whom I was more than slightly interested had to be ...read more

    All the prophets, to be sure, proclaim the salvation of the Lord, but none can match Isaiah for the sheer volume and grandeur of proclamation regarding God’s salvation.

     | 6,463 views

    We do no one any service when we take them from their family or their spouse in order to serve the needs of the church instead of serving the needs of their family first.

    Offering my time - Exodus 18:15-27 Did you know that in Arab countries they learn to tell time by measuring the length of their shadows. It proved to be a fairly accurate way to determine the hour of the day. The Bible tells us that our Heavenly Father has measured out our days in a more perfect ...read more
