    Contributed by Peter Baumgartle on Dec 20, 2023
     | 1,855 views

    The Christmas Story in the Gospel of John is far different than the account in Matthew and Luke. There is no baby, no Mary and Joseph, no angels, no shepherds. But there were four wise men.

    The Gospel of John, chapter 1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light ...read more

    The Resurrection Series

    Contributed by Gary Moore on Feb 4, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,702 views

    Matthew’s account of the resurrection. Matthew’s narrative of e Galilean encounter with the disciples is a culmination to the gospel which accentuates the Trinitarian nature of God and the mission of the believer.

    He is not here, for he has risen, as he said.

    The Most Important Job In The World

    Contributed by James Snyder on Jan 28, 2013
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,281 views

    The most important job anybody could ever have is raising a family. We have a divine trust in this area and will be held accountable to God for our success or failure.

    Introduction: Some jobs are more important than other jobs. I think the importance of a certain job has to do with who is asking you to do it. In Genesis 24, Abraham, well advanced in years, is giving to his servant the most important job that servant could ever do. Abraham’s son, Isaac was ...read more
