     | 2,670 views

    This message sums up the Two Witnesses purpose as well as their message in three simple points; 1) There’s a resurrection of life; 2) There’s a focus on worship; and 3) There’s a promise to redeem. Do we live under the same hope today?

    Why would God send His Son to die for us? The answer is simple: LOVE. You’ve heard of a crime of passion. The cross was a place of passion. But it wasn’t our passion; it was the loving passion of God who loved us enough to send His Son to die for us.

    based on 1 rating
     | 312 views

    Worry has become so normal that many assume it is simply part of being human. But Jesus calls His disciples to something radically different. He calls us to trust. He calls us to open our eyes to something as simple, as beautiful, and as fragile as a flower — and learn from it the theology of trust.

     | 135 views

    The result of miracles often receive tons of "praise", but at the root of each act Jesus performed contains one simple, challenging, word: "obedience". Will we be a people who obey Christ because of who He is, or simply because of what He can do for us?

    We're Missing The God Behind The Word: Who Are You Really God?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jan 13, 2023
     | 913 views

    It's astonishing how we can miss this simple connection. We can get so focused on belief in scripture, a worldview, a depiction of reality, which is all good stuff, that we can all together miss that the goal is to know the real God who behind all this information.

    The thing we need to discover is this: Who is God, really? That is the chief question. Nothing else really matters. We've been in evangelical Christianity, and the apologetics movement, ever focused on a list of things we ought to believe. It's very informational. This is all exceedingly ...read more
