The Tomb Is Empty

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 19, 2023

The empty tomb is all the evidence we need to prove the central claim of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus.

There’s an old joke that people tell about cemeteries when they drive by: ‘How many people are dead in that one?’ the answer, of course, is “All of them.” It’s true, isn’t it? Tombs are for people who have died. The really important ones may be called sepulchres or mausoleums. Some of them are ...read more

Did Judas Do Any Good? Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 5, 2023

Judas got nothing good–not pleasure or honor or power. He ended up being the only person in the Bible whom God judged as being better off never being born.

Wednesday of Holy Week 2023 It does not seem terribly fair what happened to poor Kerioth-born Judas, as Matthew records it. He sells out Jesus for what in today’s currency would be about $260. Then, seeing Jesus condemned to death, he changes his mind and attempts to return the money to the ...read more

Jesus And Children In Mark Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Apr 11, 2023

Lesson 13 Mark 10:13-16 Jesus and Children in Mark CHILDREN IN OT PERSPECTIVE: The Old Testament talks about the importance of raising children to love and worship God (Deuteronomy 6:7, Proverbs 22:6).

The Divinity Of Jesus

Contributed by Jeff Hagan on Apr 28, 2022

Almost everyone believes Jesus really existed, but who do they say that he was/is?

We have reached a point in history where there is virtually no need to argue for the existence of the person of Jesus. Even liberal scholars, theologians, historians and archaeologists now concede that the person of Jesus found in the Bible is an historical reality. However, the debate rages on to ...read more

Giving

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 2, 2022

One of the greatest secrets of the universe is in Jesus’ words, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ (Acts 20:35) Do we give extravagantly to God or our leftovers? Let’s look at Mary’s anointing of Jesus in John 12:1-8.

Stewards Of Souls

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 5, 2022

Are we stewards of souls? Whose souls are we stewards of? When and where must we give account of our stewardship?

This is our second week of stewardship month. A time when we concentrated on biblical teaching of stewardship especially in the area of soulwinning emissions. Last week we looked at the stewardship of truth. That means we have been put in trust with sharing the truth with a lost and dying world. ...read more

A Lesson In The Leftovers

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 31, 2022

Undoubtedly many have heard this passage of Scripture before and hopefully, many have read this story. This is the story of where Jesus feeds the multitude, the five thousand.

What a miracle to perform. I cannot imagine trying to feed that many people. No doubt there are quite a few mothers out there that would find that a daunting task. Can you see five thousand people coming through your door, walking to the dining room, either trying to find a place to sit or going ...read more
