The Lion, The Lamb And The Throne Room Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 19, 2016

Almost everyone has a picture in their minds of what Jesus looks like... but almost no one visualizes Him the way He's shown in Revelation 5. Why does God paint us a portrait of a wounded lamb with 7 horns and 7 eyes?

The Mysterious Melchizedek Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 22, 2019

Melchizedek gets 3 verses in Genesis, but 3 chapters in Hebrews. It's like he disappeared from history until God decided it was time to explain his importance to our faith.

An Eggsample Of Folly

Contributed by David Nolte on May 12, 2021
