    Sometimes the ordinary seems mundane, but occasionally it turns exraordinary. This is a narrative of an ordinary day turning into much more. Even a "nobody" can do something extraordinary in the hands of God.

     | 4,868 views

    This sermon, which is really more of a Bible study, suggests an overall purpose to the final book of the Bible by considering the meaning of the phrase in vs.1: "The Revelation of Jesus Christ."

    The focus of this Bible Study is on the first verse of the final book of the Bible. Though the exposition covers just one verse, the insight gleaned from this exposition should enrich our appreciation for the entire book, as well as our understanding of its general purpose. Rev. 1:1 “The ...read more

    What exactly happened on the cross of Jesus Christ? What did it mean then and what does it mean to me now? Is is just a mascot, a symbol, or something much much more?

    So what happened on the cross? Why is this THE seminal moment of Christianity? Many of us accept the reality of the cross without understanding why it matters. The cross, in its simplest terms, was a substitution. Back in the Garden of Eden, mankind rebelled against God and decided to be god ...read more

Right: we called it "catch-up Sunday" …catch-up Sunday … and the idea was that if we were behind in our giving, if we as a ...read more
