The Broken Heart

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Apr 4, 2005

In the passage, the Blood of Jesus was shed by a Roman spear... but neither John nor any other part of Scripture makes note of the importance of Christ’s blood in this story. Is there a message in the blood that flowed from Jesus side?

Because of it’s graphicness, it was rated "R". The "R", of course, is because of the violence, the gore. In ...read more

Lawnmowers Or Motorcycles?

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jun 25, 2005

A sermon that shows the more risks one takes, the more one is fulfilled in life. And, the more risk a Christian takes for Christ, the more fulfillling His walk with the Lord will be.
