This ministry of grace (Acts 4) appears to have been commonplace... but the only man mentioned ...read more

Multitudes Healed Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 18, 2017

He Is Greater

Contributed by Larry Grant on Jan 30, 2022

In the end, God prevails and Jonah misses the point. The book ends with our graceful and merciful God reconciled with the city turned around and our not so heroic prophet still angry. BUT Jesus still calls him, His Prophet!!

Matthew 12:38-41 (NKJV) “He is Greater” The Seeker (Teacher, we want to see a sign from You) The “Seeker Sensitive” Church (God does not hide – If you seek you shall find) Romans 3:11 quotes Psalm 14 “There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God.” John 6:26, Jesus answered ...read more

Is There Any Word From The Lord?

Contributed by Paul Hammons on Mar 13, 2007

Is There Any Word From The Lord? Jeremiah 37:17 We live in an age of high technology. We have become so advanced that we can communicate with people on the other side of the earth without delay.

The Masterpiece Of The Gospel: The Resurrection

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Mar 18, 2008

The only true masterpiece of man is sin, God’s masterpiece uses the centerpiece (the cross) to paint over the ugly and unacceptable work of man. God’s masterpiece is still the good news. It is still the greatest story ever told.

Intro: A masterpiece is the greatest work of an artist, or something superlative (the best of) its kind. Michelangelo had his Sistine chapel, Leonardo DaVinchi had the Mona Lisa and the Last Supper, and Van Gogh had his self portrait.

Meanwhile, Behind The Walls … Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Mar 1, 2016

Many of us are challenged with resolving conflicts and still honoring God. In his life, even as the governor of Jerusalem charged with helping the people, Nehemiah still ONLY wanted God’s approval … is that what we desire also?

"The Grave Isn't The Final Word"

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jul 11, 2002

Death is the final healing and homecoming, but it’s still tough for us who remain and grieve.

Funeral meditation: "The grave isn’t the final word" Someone in our family is in the hospital, dieing, and we whisper at the bedside, “I’d do anything to make you well.” I heard a relative say, “If I could take your sickness and have you well, I would.” That is exactly what God the Father did. ...read more
