    Only in his fifth statement from the cross did Jesus refer to his physical suffering. In one word, he says to us: 1. God can relate to our suffering, God can redeem our suffering, and God can carry us through our suffering, if we will let him.

    When Bad Things Happen to Good People Seven Last Words from the Cross Part 5 * John 19:28-29 Listen to the words of Ray Pritchard as we use our holy imagination to set the scene. He writes, “It was going to be another hot day. You could tell it early in the morning. It was not yet 9:00 and already ...read more

    Is God Calling You?

     | 13,272 views

    We all were called to serve God through the works of our hands and our intellect. No matter what we do, we are responding to our calling. God still calls each of us but we do not know how to receive God's message because we do not recognize the call.

    The idea of calling or vocation outside of the priesthood is a protestant idea that came with the reformation. It was believed then, as at now, that we are called to different vocations in life and whatever we do is a result of our obedience to a divine plan. Therefore the carpenter was in service ...read more

    Every act that you perform is a seed of one kind or another. Something will grow from it. What will your seeds produce?

    Wars have been fought over differences seemingly smaller than the contrasts we see between the five parables in this passage from Matthew’s gospel.

    God's voice is often heard in stillness. He commanded, "Be still, and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10 NIV).

    "Speak Lord for your servant is listening" (1 Samuel 3:9) "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me" (John 10:27 KJV) The Prophet Habakkuk knew the sound of God's voice. Elijah described it as a still, small voice heard as random thoughts, impressions, ...read more

    Whom do we go to in times of trouble? Can we call on God and will He hear us? Here are some great examples from the bible that are shared in this sermon.

    "Prayer Works" ... Or Does It?

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 18, 2017
     | 8,246 views

    What does the unchurched world hear when they hear us say "Prayer works" or "Prayer changes things". Is that enough of a clear message to actually mean anything to those who don't know what real prayer actually is?

    Please open your Bibles to Revelation 7:9-12 which we will read in a few minutes. This past weekend we saw two groups rioting against each other in Charlottesville, WV.

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...read more

    If you go to God and say, “I deserve acceptance,” you will be rejected, because that shows you do not know what’s in your own heart. But if you go to God and say, “I deserve rejection; please forgive me,” you will get acceptance. That’s the gospel.

    Just in time for Thanksgiving meal, Jesus tells us who to invite. Today, we encounter a dramatic story where Jesus has been invited into the home of a very prominent man.
