    The Tower Of Babel

    Contributed by John Lowe on May 14, 2014
     | 18,008 views

    The story of the Tower of Babel is a sad description of the breakdown of fellowship, of failure in communication, growing isolation and confusion. It all results from human beings failing to live in dependence on God, becoming proud of their achievements.

    11-12-04 The Tower of Babel Genesis 11:1-11:9 1 At that time all mankind spoke a single language. 2 As the population grew and spread eastward, a plain was discovered in the land of Babylon and was soon thickly ...read more

    The Indian totem pole told a story. The higher on the pole the more important the lesson. Hurt people hurt people. Angry people anger people. We must have compassion and make a difference.

     | 13,719 views

    This message is part of our Super Heroes Series. The sermon shows how the story of the Transformers is taken out of the Bible. Although Optimus Prime is a great leader, he is not on the same level as Jesus Christ.

    Elisha would work more miracles and extend more grace than any other until Jesus. But he did not surface out of nowhere; let’s begin his story at the beginning.

    The Proof Of Easter

    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,891 views

    In a time when many deny the existence of Jesus and the fact He arose, we offer the biblical story and compare it to some of the worldly explanations about Jesus and the tomb, using the truth found in facts.

    There are many thoughts as to what actually happened on that first Easter so many years ago, or what it actually means to us today. That is what we will address today. So, if you would, please open your Bibles to LUKE 24. We will begin there, but first . . . What do you think a good sermon ...read more
