Babel

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Apr 29, 2013

The sin of pride, self-glory, provoked the building of the tower, and the sin of distrust led these people away. God can take our confusion and replace it with clarity.

The Great Harlot

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on May 12, 2014

Satan uses a beautiful and appealing woman to attract men and women to himself. Since she appears to be so lovely and innocent the world will falsely believe she must be from “god". Our challenge today is: "Do not be deceived by her!"

The Three Legged Race Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 4, 2012

Becoming a partner with someone means having to stay in step with the partner; it is important to be equally yoked. If not, your impact for our Lord could be minimized.

The Three Legged Race (2 Corinthians 6:14-18) 1. Here is an old joke about a three-legged race of sorts.

Stand In The Gap

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Nov 19, 2019

Reward For Being Obedient

Contributed by Rev. Felix Cornelius Agyei on Jun 10, 2023
