Losing Sight Of The Cross

Contributed by Doug Stringer on May 15, 2005

Losing Sight of The Cross REV. 2:2 5a I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked men, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.

Little Changes Make Huge A Huge Difference

Communion

Contributed by Adam James on Nov 15, 2016

A communion message reflecting on Jesus' command to share the cup and break the bread in remembrance of Him.

When we come around to a time of communion, our attention can’t help but be drawn to the two elements. We have the bread, and we have the grape juice. But these two symbols represent something bigger, and much more important that bread and juice. We are all familiar with the Last Supper ...read more

Praying A Promise Series

Contributed by Ricky Tuttle Thd on Apr 24, 2020

The subject we are looking at is not the miracle that God performed with Hannah and her husband Elkanah, nor is it about the maltreatment from another family member that led to bitterness. Both would be great subjects. Today I would like to look at the subject of “Praying A Promise.”

The Fear Of Trials - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Travis Newbold on May 19, 2019

We all have many different fears that we have to deal with in this life. Gideon was a man that faced a lot of scary things. I know that we can learn from his life experiences about how to overcome our fears.

From his point of view everything that happens has an explanation for it so therefore he does not have any fear. I personally love the character of Sherlock Holmes and I really enjoyed BBC’s ...read more

Contributed by Jessica Linde on Sep 1, 2024

Have any of you made it as far into the watching The Chosen as season 3…? Okay, a handful of you. That’s okay. I promise no spoilers from me today! Well… I mean… we do know how the Gospel stories conclude (with Christ’s death, resurrection, and ascension), so I guess the biggest spoiler is already ...read more
