Beggar(S)

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Aug 30, 2017

When Martin Luther died, they found a piece of paper in his pocket that read: "This is true. We are beggars." He is right. Before God, we are beggars, like the Canaanite woman.

Word Of God: What Is In It For Me?

Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018

What is our response to the Word of God? Do we continue to search out to try and see how the word can meet our needs? Or do we have a higher purpose in listening to the word and applying it? The answer to the question "What is In It for Me? " is simple.

Dead To The World

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Nov 11, 2019

During the Last Supper, Jesus tells disciples that they are not of this world. And in the epistles, we see that Christians are dead to sin. In this message, we look at what it means to be dead but spiritually alive.
