    What Is It You Want? Mark 10:35-45 The Scripture reading today contains a very interesting story.

    When we need healing in our bodies, there is a time that comes which warrents us being determined to get ahold of God for healing. Sometimes we just simply must push through the crowd and touch Jesus!

    TEXT: Luke 8:40-48 And as Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him. [41] And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was an official of the synagogue; and he fell at Jesus’ feet, and began to entreat Him to come to his house; [42] for he had an only ...read more

     | 2,634 views

    Twenty-first political campaigns in the United States seem to be a far cry from the intentions of the founding fathers of our country. And yet, the aspirations for titles and positions go back in history. Every organization with people seems to have a pol

    It’s that time of year again… the air is cool and crisp, the days are getting shorter, the leaves are beginning to fall, and the television is full of pithy little advertising spots exhorting why I should choose one candidate over another.

     | 4,013 views

    Our chief purpose in being human is to love God with all our heart and soul and mind and strength. How can we do that after the fall? Through God’s power, through God’s Holy Spirit, given to all who have faith in Jesus Christ.

    What is it that God desires of us as men and women? Why has he made us in his image? What’s our reason for being here? There are probably a number of answers that someone might give to those questions. The Westminster Shorter Catechism asks: "What is the chief end of man?", then gives the answer: ...read more

    The Court With No Appeal Series

    Contributed by Cesar Verdeflor on Nov 8, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,578 views

    This court didn’t have appeal; nothing attactive about it. Although Jesus was innocent of all their accusations, they fabricated a case against Him so they could put Him away.

    THE COURT WITH NO APPEAL (John 18:19-24) The Sanhedrin that tried Jesus was one sided. In our court today, someone may appeal from a lower to a higher court for a new hearing if he was falsely accused. But the Sanhedrin was different. This council had no appeal, meaning, nothing attractive or ...read more

    Third in a seven part series that looks at the last words of Jesus on the cross.

    Most of us, if we’re really honest, would have to admit that when we face difficulties in life, our tendency is to focus on ourselves. We ask questions like “Why me?” or we get angry with God because we’re focused on ourselves. I think that’s especially true when we come face to face with death. ...read more
