     | 2,027 views

    I want to talk about the real war we’re in. You hear a lot on the news about the “War on Terror” and the possible “War with Iraq” but there’s another war that’s far more important that’s happening right now. It’s the spiritual warfare for the eternal so

    Most Christians are on their guard for obvious temptations. So the Devil doesn’t need to tempt you with the big sins. No, he is more subtle than that. He is crafty and sneaks up on you. He doesn’t just call you over to the trap and push you in. No, he lea

    There was a Church where the preacher and the song leader were not getting along. This began to spill over into the worship service. One week the preacher preached on commitment, and how we should dedicate ourselves to service. The song leader then led the song, “I shall Not Be Moved.” The next ...read more

    In Luke 14:24-35 Jesus¡¦ life was set on going to Jerusalem, where he had determined to die. As he had explicitly said, ¡§In any case, I must keep going today and tomorrow and the next day ¡X for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!¡¨ (Luke 13:33)

    Do We Really Need Each Other?

    Contributed by Johnny Knight on Jan 27, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,210 views

    When I'm not doing well, it is often because I am going it alone. I don't always let others in. I forget to ask for help; I keep my problems to myself. And though I may not see it, others around me might be doing the same thing.

    Do We Really Need Each Other? Text: James 5:14-16 Many living things need each other to survive. I have lived for most of my life near trees known as Colorado aspens. If you are familiar with this tree, you may have noticed that it does not grow alone. Aspens are found in clusters, or groves. ...read more

    Jesus is honored by Matthew as his new Saviour. To show his acceptance of Christ as his Lord, he throws a party-a meal-in honor of Jesus. Things go well until some nay-sayes come. Jesus sets them stright and sends them packing to find the truth about Him.

    Changing Masters

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Feb 6, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,375 views

    Does it matter if we fight our sinful nature, or give up and give in? If faith is all that matters, why should we bother to live a godly life and listen to God’s commands? Paul’s question is one we also ought to ask ourselves: Who is your master?

    Opening illustration: A pastor was teaching a Bible Information Class to a young couple who were brand new Christians. The first lesson was on law and gospel - the two basic messages in Scripture. The pastor explained the law: God desires us to be perfect, but we are sinful and can never reach ...read more

    Life is filled with unknowns…and that’s never going to change. But there is a way to live life UNAFRAID OF AN UNKNOWN FUTURE. You see…in the unknown…there is Someone who can be known…Someone who desires to be known. Someone that when you know them…you can face an unknown future unafraid.

    Unafraid of an Unknown Future I have always enjoyed getting in the car and going for a drive with no real plan or idea where I was going.

    Esther Series

     | 1,640 views

    God is not done writing our stories. We may not have chosen to be in the circumstances we find ourselves in, but if we hang on - if we choose faith and trust - knowing that if it is not good yet, it’s because God is not done yet, then one day we will see our lives from His vantage point.

    Bible Stories ESTHER Romans 8:28 April 22, 2023 The book of Esther is a true narrative. The story begins in the third year of Xerxes the Great (Ahasuerus), who was King of Persia from 486-465 BC.
