I Wanna Be Guilty!

Contributed by David Nolte on Feb 26, 2017

Looks at how the Apostles so lived that when they were accused of being Christians and preaching Christ, there was enough evidence to convict them

“I Wanna Be Guilty!” : Acts 8:1-6, 4:19-20. 5:27-29 David P. Nolte It’s a human tendency to defend our innocence when we are accused even if we are guilty. We may even attempt defending the actions we cannot deny. We may rationalize, minimize, justify or even lie about ...read more

If you will trust and let God lead the way..it's not what can I do..it's What can't you do for the Kingdom? God uses those who make themselves available to Him. He will use you, if you make yourself available to him... It's time to stand up and be counted

Contend For The Faith

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022

When you hear the word “contend,” what comes to mind? An ugly fight? A heated argument? These are negative connotations, but contending can also be a very good thing, and that’s exactly what we see in the book of Jude.

According to verse 3, Jude’s purpose for writing this letter was to encourage these Christians to contend for the faith. But what does that mean? Why should we contend, is it really necessary? And how do we do that? ANALYSIS OF VERSE 3 Diligence (Gr. spoude)—to interest one’s self most earnestly ...read more

Cosy In The Culture Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on May 1, 2023

The story of Esther is an amazing story of how God can use His people to accomplish His will. But Mordecai and Esther were not always the heroes. Much like our world today, Esther and Mordecai were cosy in their culture. As Christians, we need to be different from the world.

You Need A Hospital, Not A Welcome Center

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jan 13, 2024

Zechariah 8:23 gives a prophecy of people from every nation seeking after God's People to find out about the Lord. This image gives a wonderful picture of what the church needs to be, a hospital for sinners and not a museum for saints.

You Need a Hospital, Not a Welcome Center Good Morning. This morning, we are looking at the idea of what the church is supposed to be. Is it an organization which shows unconditional affirmation to everyone, now matter what they believe or want to do, or is it a people who, despite our weakness, ...read more

The Stairway To Happiness

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 8, 2022

There should be no doubt in anyone’s mind that God loves us and wants to bless us. The Book of Psalms is all about how this wonderful God that loves us wants to bless us.

God does not wait until chapter two before He tells us how we can receive a blessing. He starts off in chapter one, verse one. The word translated, “Blessed,” is from the Hebrew word, “aishair” which simply means: “HAPPINESS.” Many people have different ideas on how to find happiness in this ...read more
